This is a work of fiction. Unless otherwise indicated, all the names, characters, businesses, events, incidents, and some places in this book are either the product of my imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.
Though this novel has no relation to my real life, I am writing in "first-person" narration style, simply because I don't have any means to know what goes on in another person's mind and therefore I am taking this as a precaution lest I judge other people's outward actions wrongly. So "I" appear as the narrator of the protagonist in this story, as a person in the story, telling the story from my own point of view.
Another factor about this novel in the making is that I will be using the "stream of consciousness" style because it is a technique of writing that tries to capture the natural flow of a character's extended thought process, often by incorporating sensory impressions, incomplete ideas, unusual syntax, and rough grammar, which will give me more creative freedom. A crucial reason why I am using this method is to allow the protagonist to jump across scenes so that there will be no chronological order. Chronology doesn't matter in this story because this novel is like the protagonist's thoughts on his life experiences. The thoughts itself will give the idea of where he is and when the particular thoughts occur relevant to that environment he is appearing in.
