It is about a teen who has experienced a school shooting and lost someone he cared about. He is angry because his school hasn't made any safety precautions, updated the security system, etc. He hears about a plan for another shooting and decides to take matters into his own hands.
I got the idea for this story from Jeremy, which is about a suicide, not a shooting. I first thought of it when I was in my room going through new story plots in my head. The idea of a school shooting story just seemed to stand out. So if you want to read it, it will be coming soon on my Fictionpress account.
Casey,
ReplyDeleteIt sounds intriguing! I want to read it. There is an interesting book called AFTER that's about the aftermath of a school shooting. The school went nuts, almost Big Brother style about monitoring everything and making the kids lives crazy. Also, Brooks Brown's book on the Columbine violence is excellent and a fast read. Brooks Brown went to school with both of the shooters at the time of the shooting, and with one of them, Dylan Klebold, since elementary school. It's more of a trying to figure out the cause of the shooting rather than looking at the aftermath kind of book, though. I was thinking either book or both might give you some background information about shootings in general. Thanks for sharing.
By the way, is your audio on your EP?
