So, I'm a country boy from North Carolina whom just graduated this year from high school.

I've always loved the adventures that people talk about in autobiographies, biographies and novels, and so, I too, thought that I should start an adventure on my own. My entire life, I've always wanted to be a novelist like Koontz or Clancy, with the humor and cynicism of Twain and Salinger, but with the love and dedicated voice of Lowry.

To make things even more interesting, I started June 1st, with only a backpack, with a sleeping bag, three sets of clothes, a water bottle, some food, a netbook, and three large notebooks and two mechanical pencils. And just set off on my adventure. No money, no rules. Just learn to live the way we are meant to live as nature intended.

So far it's been a wild ride alone, I hope to find friends soon to add to the content between my pages.

There's a Barnes & Noble across from this Starbucks. But they don't have any of his books in stock. :(

I did. They say the book must be requested, and it's better to buy online if I'm not willing to wait three days for it to arrive.

Best thing is to just write about your life and go have experiences.
Which you are doing.

Good Luck!!
