I don't believe I am insane, but if I am, I am certainly no more so than you, Romero Russo. 

 

The 14th spot has been usurped and I am back to a humbling 15th place. I have maxed out all my contacts via the evils of social media and my post cards are running thin. There is only so much one individual can do, but if we were to form a battalion and strike on the offensive: if each of you, my loyal crew, are able to recruit 3 civilians and they are to pre-order...then U-Turn at Next Synapse may still be a reality. If not, then this could be another piece of an imaginary dream and one that will fade in five days time when we all wake up.

This is something I have worked on for seven years, and it would be an unforgettable life changing moment to hand over copies of this epic story into my parent's hands. Mom in New Mexico and Dad in California. As an only child, they are my greatest fans.  

Thank you all for your time and your undying support. Each pre-order has been so kindly accepted and I cannot thank you all enough. Sincerely, I hope you guys enjoy this story: one near and dear to me since I first had this dream in my sophomore year of college. 

Checkmate and Rummy my dear Gladiators.
