I'm going to create a virtual pc that looks just like my pc, so I can play non-vr games in VR
A man stands alone on a quiet street, seemingly lost in thought as he checks the house numbers.
In one hand, he clenches an address that he knows, deep in his heart, does not exist. In the other, a small box of condoms that will go wanting this night.
He is, the loneliest Bandit.
fixed.
Make it look like Matthew Broderick's in WarGames.

Which kinda sucks because the final event was a submarine battle water fight outside.
Can't be any worse than his last secretary.
[DOUBLEPOST=1469590222,1469589761][/DOUBLEPOST]Had a rather rough start to the day that gradually got better. And I guess my bi-polar mood is swinging back the other way because I ended the day on one hell of a high note.
4,300 words later and I've completed the first draft of my first Young Adult novel. Now, to send it to some alpha readers for a first go-over. Then it's time to get some serious editing done. This one feels like it'll need a lot more editing than my first 2 novels.
Still, at 61,800 words, my third novel is complete! Deliver unto me your likes, brofists, hell yeahs!
This may seem obvious and stupid to say, but, while it's not necessarily a good idea for a first alpha, before finishing it up, be sure to have it read/tested/critiqued by people of the appropriate age group (and potentially at least a few who are perhaps a bit younger, because you know people will read an age group above what they should, sometimes).
Other than that, congrats!
Although she isn't in the same age group (she's in her late 20s), I have a friend that's been reading it as I've been writing it. She's a major YA reader and has been demanding I write more as she's gone along. So, you know, that's one positive so far.
You're right, though. I'll need to test this out on a few people within the right age bracket. I have some friends who either have kids around that age or know kids around that age.
Aw come on, you could've gone "Naile'DAT!"
