: What book did you write anyway, Mikal? I seen this one book called How to Write Sci Fi and Fantasy once. Have you heard of it? Is it worth it? And yes, you are looking at a future writer/director. When I graduate college or when I'm 18, I'm gonna move to Calif and go to film school. Then I'm gonna write a book and publish it then hopefully make a movie of it. Yeah, I know I'm dreaming. Well see ya's, Short Stuff.
