About this blog:

This WAS the blog where I WAS writing my first book: Survival I
I planNED on it being a trilogy. I will later alter the title IMMENSELY. To anyone reading this, feel free to leave a comment on my latest posts. All actual posts in the FIRST book ARE DEAD
This WAS a science fiction post-apocalypse book, based on the real asteroid Apophis scheduled to miss earth (1 in 45000 chance of hitting) in 2036.

Ignore that whole first bit up there, that's ancient history. Now this blog has a new purpose; to house my NaNoWriMo entry for all to read! If you have any suggestions on what I write about, feel free.

Enjoy!

The year is 2036, and NASA was dead wrong. The asteroid Apophis, meant to have no greater than a 1 in 45000 chance of striking earth, did. They had kept the true size of the asteroid hidden, so as to not cause panic and worldwide pandemonium. They claimed it wouldn't even cause a worldwide winter, and losses of life would be under 10 million. That was wrong too.

Apophis did hit the Earth, with a force, not equivlant to 800 mega-tons of tnt, but 1800.

And it killed not 10 million, but 5 billion.
