Okay, question time.

How many of you would like to read Phoenix With A Purpose, raw as it is?

Blurb:
Phoenix With A Purpose details the development of Princess Min Feng, heir apparent to the Phoenix Court, set in a future where the Phoenix Court, a matriarchal Imperial Family, rules over an Alliance of Planets. Min Feng is impulsive, her inner phoenix flame (an ability to turn her from human to phoenix) out of control because of puberty. She yearns for freedom and meets a Navajo boy from Mesa, a colony home-world for the Navajo/Dine people. When her mother, the Empress, decides to send her on an apprentice-ship on a starship captained by her grandaunt, Min Feng rebels and runs away from home, triggering a pattern of consequences for her, the boy and the family. Will she find her purpose in life? Or is she a phoenix without a purpose, susceptible to the whims of an uncontrollable phoenix fire and puberty?

EDIT:
I uploaded it on Scribd.

*lol* It always happens. :)

[delfinnium]

stupid characters.

[jolantru]

*LOL* They have lives and minds of their own. :P

They should cooperate! Then I can get PUBLISHED.

Or at least tell my mum I'm not wasting time scribbling.

>< At least you'd finished a novel. I've only got.. hm. two, three pieces that could count as short stories. Sort of.

I think my novel is more like a long short story... *lol* And already I am expanding it mentally. Life on Mesa. Woot. :)

Keep on writing. *grin* ;)

And no, sometimes, the characters really deviate from the path I have set for them. Min Feng certainly took matters in her own hands and I was going "Wut? Okay. That is going to be intriguing."

[delfinnium]

mmm Mine seems to follow the course MORE or less.

Only not. She's stalling. Brat.

Hehe. They tend to do that... all the time. :P I was going "Teenagers..." and well, Min Feng is a teenager. Reminds me of my junior college students.
