A Novel! That's awesome dude. What's your Plot?

 
Well, it's a little bit unconventional, and a lot of it is told through symbolism, but it's about a girl, Cora, who wakes up in her room (door closed) and for the first while the book plays as if everything is normal, and then it starts to descend to the idea that the door has been locked. As it goes on we find that Cora is the victim of abuse and has been locked in her room (you don't find out why till The End) and a lot of flashbacks lead up to her life present-day, and as time goes by in the room Cora begins to starve/die of Thirst, and therefore sees/hears things/has Fucked Up dreams. She goes completely out of it, fighting the concept of life and death and acknowledgement of harsh truths that she would have otherwise ignored had it not been for the real-life confrontation that she's in more trouble than she's been letting on. It's basically a psychological book in the mind of Cora as she gets weaker and weaker.
Probably won't sell worth anything, but at this rate I could have it done by The End of summer, and then I'll get to work on publishing it.

 
Sounds good. i see what you mean by "unconventional". Have you read any of Matthew Reilly's books? He's my favourite author and when he was. . . i think it was either 18 or 19 (was still in school) finished his first book 'Contest'. He spent ages trying to publish it, and ended up self publishing it. By that stage he'd just about finished his second book, 'ice station', which was rather successful. He ended up getting a contract with Pan Macmillian and he's gone to write. . .thinking. . about 10 books. (which i gladly have in my possesion.) What i'm trying to say, is never give up. Who knows what'll happen.

well... *puts on glasses and a pipe in his mouth*
 
it all started a year ago when a close family member (my DAD) was diagnosed with a stroke. This might have been just over a year. Approximately one month later, he was doing fine and was getting into rehab. There was hope...
 
about 3 months later, we went on a holiday to bali where he would get some well needed physio there. his condition started getting better and it seemed like the physio was working and all this would come to an end soon.
 
Now this, unfortunately, didn't last long at all. I was working in the workshop on building my dogs a doghouse when I heard a big Bang on one of the sides, it came from the outside. It was my DAD, he hit his Head on the shed. We brought him back inside and though "hmmm, maybe you need a little more practise walking." which wasn't true.
 
For some reason, his condition got worse and worse, until he decided to go see a doctor. By this time, he couldn't see properly and his speech was slurred. The doctor immediately picked up the phone a called the hospital. He went back into hospital and he recieved a whole bunch of tests, bla bla bla.
 
They thought he just had bleeding in his brain, which was absolutely wrong. It took about 10 scans until the found he had a brain tumor. Then news was shocking, but worse still had to come...
 
Another couple of weeks later he went Down to get his Tumor removed. We were all getting prepared for the worst but hoping for the best. He did make it, and when we went Down there to visit him, he was making great progress.
 
Fast forward another couple of months, and he went for another CT scan. They found some good and bad news. The good news is that the brain is self repairing and is bouncing back. The Bad News is that... the Tumor has started regrowing. Fuck'n' Hell, more shit we need to deal with.
 
I was probably less than 2 weeks later, that we recieved another call saying, "you don't have any Tumor, you have a medalo blastoma" A medalo blastoma is an agressive Cancer, that tyipcally affects girls under the age of 10. How the fuck can a male at the age of 64 get one of those? (he doesn't drink or smoke!)
 
Well.. he went back down... again, to get this medalo blastoma removed. But this time is was different, this time, it was growing on a artery. So it cannot be removed just with conventional surgury. By this time, he has been in and out of hospital for a year. So they decided to hit it with radiation.
 
Unfortunately... the Tumor has spread to his spinal fluid, and the doctors have decided to stop operating on him... now all hope is gone and my DAD only has a few months to live. What The Fuck am I going to do? I'm only 16 for chrissakes with the intention of spending 20,000 on unversity which is only a year and a half away. The only things that have kept me going is my music and freinds. Now it's the holidays, I'm at work most of the time and I just talk with mates over xbox live. But that can only go so far...
 
Please guys, I need some advice. What should I do?

This is Far more severe than your original post implied.

I've had many people in my family come into contact with Cancer (off the top of my Head, my aunt, grandmother, and brother). Sadly, my aunt and grandmother didn't make it

But, my brother did make it . In The End, just remember this: there is always a chance he'll survive.

And, are you sure he can't be operated on? There has to be some way he can be helped medically now.

There is Nothing that they can do now unfortunately, they cannot get the Cancer cells out or Kill them in his spinal fluid. My grandmother didn't make it through her Cancer either 0  
 
The doctors have given him a 0% chance of survival and only months to live 0
 
I've already started to fill out the papers for youth allowence, and all of his life long freinds are comming up to see him.

0%

There is always a chance. I really hope your father survives this, Mini.

So do I, but I have a feeling that I'm going to be having a Bleak future ahead of me 0

This will sound extremely stupid, but remember you'll always have us here to talk to.
