I wanna see if the synopsis I have is any good. Remember I still have 3 years so it's a developing project. The year is 2056. The fictional country of [i]Haven[/i] is under control by the [i]National Freedom Movement[/i] or [i]Nafromov[/i], a fascist party. It's a post-apocalyptic world where the United States has been ravaged by war, terror and disease. Out of fear and desperation, the American people elect [i]Nafromov [/i] in a landslide. Taking advantage of his majority, Marcus Anthony Stark, the party leader and U.S. president sinks his influence into the Christian church, and several neo-n[b]a[/b]zi organizations, instilling his ideology over a period of years. In the process, he renames his country and capital, [i]Haven[/i] and [i]Victory City[/i] respectively. Eventually he and top ranking party members form the ultimate one-party, totalitarian state; all the while, persecuting minorities to preserve their ideals. The story would revolve around Milton Jackson, a 36 year old father and husband. He's second in command to the president but secretly is disillusioned with his party's principles. He must decide to either live in hatred and shame of his country or attempt to do what he thinks is right, subsequently putting his family in danger. What does everyone think?

  • [quote]The year is 2056[/quote] Already lost my attention. Too many stories have this as their attention getter, and it's a terrible attention getter. No joke, you already made me lose attention to the book. It's unoriginal the first 4 words are. And that's all it takes to lose a buyer. Never start a sentence with something not exciting.
