A book about four people who should not exist, certainly should never have met, and definitely should not do many of the things I have difficulty writing about. A book with the random grammar that came as a free gift with a comprehensive education.

Maybe a non-paper format is going to help me weave the different strands of the story together while I ge my head around the order of events. The idea is that the overall Gene Bomb arc will also include flashbacks from the threads of the stories of the main male characters – The Soldier’s Story, How a Lover is Made, and Tale of the Innocent as well as drawing Lia, poor Lia, into their lives.

The story has to begin with Lia and the opportunity offered to her one long and lazy summer. It begins in the Library.
