A novel by

 
 
This book dropped out of me ten years ago when I worked in a little cubicle with little pictures of my kids stuck to the walls and the computer screen burned my eyes and the florescent light burned my hair and I woke up at night after dreams of driving off a bridge. I had kids and a job and all these bills, and I felt old and crazy and trapped (but I wasn't). Writing this book made me know I could write a book and then I changed everything in real life and it's a pretty good book, considering I knew nothing, and I still love the characters, so I decided to stick it out here.

Meet Nathan and Jeannie. They are just over 30 and are coming undone. Nathan doesn't want to be a benefits salesman, but he gets good. Jeannie doesn't want to be married to a salesman, so she takes the kids and leaves. Nathan's sudden freedom shoots him to the moon (from which he falls, but somewhere else). Hope you like it.
