Short Story Proposal

This currently untitled story is about an 18 year old writer named Madison. Madison has never ever finished a project, but he is convinced his next idea, a sci-fi look at the Darfur crisis, will be his big breakthrough. His friend James attempts to write it with him but is too involved with school and his girlfriend Kelsey to really be of much help to Madison . The story focuses on the pressure put on Madison to write his great story when his generation is only known for getting low test scores and being less creative than any other generation preceding it. The story will follow Madison until the end of his production that he simply labels "Darfuture". Madison will learn whats really important about writing, once he stops trying to write his magnum opus and starts living his life away from characters he creates for his movies.

This looks great, Nathan. Your draft is due early-mid next week, and I'm really looking forward to it now. If you want to send samples to me this weekend, please feel free. Sorry to miss class Friday.

-PS did you catch the train yet?
