OK - you all know what's going on by now so I'm not going to explain.Here's 55 words for the G-Man's weekly challenge, that tell you a little bit more about my novel's narrator, who was sent off to boarding school at an early age.
There were a number who enrolled at the same time, all very young, and dumped on the teachers and domestic staff for a variety of reasons. A few of the lads came from places where their parents genuinely could not look after them, but most of us shared the dubious honour of being simply unwanted.

'simply unwanted' - ouch
So many horror stories from such schools.
One of the twists of this novel is that the poor guy's school days really WERE the happiest of his life. Yeah - I know that sounds like I've stolen it from Harry Potter - but wait till you read the rest of the story :)
So at 55 words a shot are we gonna be reading this for the next 3 years?
Just asking...:-)
Excellent 55 Morning AJ
Thanks for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week-End
Oooh it happened to my brother way too early! thanks.
what a sting...i work with many of these same kids...it can be a sad life for sure...
I'm impressed at how everyone's relating to this. (makes it promising for the book)
G-Man - if you'd like to read it in instalments it can be arranged! :)
So many children are...this looks like an interesting novel, MAJ. Best of luck with it. Keep us posted.
Sounds intriguing.
