Alright, here is the PROLOGUE for 10 Years Later, coming March 29th.
Prologue
Cammie
You would think since the invention of the Internet
that most people wouldn’t even be interested in having a high school reunion.
Social media has all but taken away the mystery that used to be the most fun
and appealing part of going to one in the first place. Nowadays, we no longer have
to wonder how people from our class are doing; we see their mundane updates on
the Internet every hour. Don’t get me wrong, I’m pretty sure my last status update
went something like, “Taco Bell for lunch. So wrong, I don’t wanna be right.”
Yes, I realize I’m part of the problem.
Online interaction means that I know exactly what everyone
from my high school has been up to for the last ten years. I know where
everyone works, who they’re married to, what they look like now, how many kids
they have, everything. The very idea of a reunion
seems anticlimactic, to say the least.
Yet, I still want to be there. And so does everyone else,
apparently, because it’s happening. Even though we already know about each other’s
lives, I guess we still want to see our classmates in person, to have face-to-face
conversations instead of cyber ones. To be honest, for me it’s mostly about
seeing one particular someone in person. And I have no idea if he’ll be there
or not.
For whatever reason, Dalton Thomas doesn’t have any social
media pages, and I’d be lying if I told you it hasn’t driven me absolutely
bat-shit crazy at times over the last ten years. I have no idea where he is,
what he’s been doing, if he’s married (please don’t be
married), or what he looks like now. And trust me, it’s not for lack of
trying. Because I tried . . . I tried to find him all over Cyber Land.
Mostly I convinced myself that it was to satisfy my perfectly natural
curiosity, but I know the truth lay somewhere deeper than I cared to admit. The
more I tried to find him and failed, the more obsessed I became. But none of it
mattered, because I always came up empty-handed.
Dalton Thomas refused to be found.
So excited for this!!! Will this be part of a series, or a stand-alone?
ReplyDeleteJenny, it's a stand alone!
