Or even kill you? Who would know? How would anyone trace any connection of to the killer?" That "what if." is a big question for writers and it started me on the course for writing "IM".

I've heard it said that 90% of the things we think we be made aware about others is wrong. Still, we get back together stories about them, assign motives from they do based upon the tiniest sliver of evidence and our own tapes of past opinions. In effect, we judge people as well as books by their cover. With no I took the time to build relationships with any the hands down fellow travelers might my views (opinions) of them changed? My prediction is always be YA Literature .
