There is a Boy and there is a Girl. There's another boy and women who want to control it all. There is a God and there is a Heaven and a Hell. And Boy blunders through life, abused, tortured, dissociated until he completes his destiny, much to the greatest fears of those who tried to care for him. The Girl becomes an angel for him. She does her very best... all for him. And he is only born for destruction. Everything is a lie. Everyone is going to die. But will it be by his hand or the Gods who sneer from above or just in the mind of this twisted fool, Boy?

Please, give this a read if you'd like to... I need feedback not scammers.. I've had enough of my heart stamped on and losing more chunks of my faith in humanity of course.. I'm not going to put all the chapters on here.. I just want to give a taste then publish it properly with artwork and of course not like this as it's only the second draft.

I want to know how to do a manuscript, to do a cover letter... All that jump through hoop crap and actually commit. I know he's being frowned upon lately but Neil Gaiman inspired me with his film of Mirror Mask when I was a child and Dave McKean's artwork tied the knot during my art GCSE years... So now I want to strive for something of my own. I want to contribute in a way that bleeds my heart on a page and for silent screams from my raw lungs to fill the back of your head as you read it. I want it to be chaos. And painful.

Because that's what it is.

It's a tragedy or a comedy. Because that's what I am. Accept me or ignore me. Your choice, this is my voice.

The reason that the character isn't given any defining features is the point of his character. The character is the main one in The Rage in Me. His name is Boy and he meets Girl and they fall in love. But that love is twisted and he has such deep warped anger that changes his perception of good.

Until it destroys everything he was born to love.

The fact of his character being not described as anything more than silent rage incarnate is purposeful. He is me and you and none of us all at the same time. That's the point. Because there is no real point to anything. Other than not knowing and knowing simultaneously who we are as a race.

And what we are is angry.
