Norman Normalson & The Normals Logline

This blog has been primarily focused on The L Squad. There's a good reason for that. The L Squad is the first book I completed and is the most polished. The L Squad is also the book I've been shopping to agents. Agents haven't been overly enthusiastic as of yet. I can only assume, it's because they are illiterate... or I suck. There may be some other possibilities in between.

While I am far from giving up and abandoning The L Squad, I decided to give Norman and friends a shot. I've recently completed a fourth draft. Yes, typos can hide for the complete first three drafts or so. They are clever buggers and champions of the game You Can't Find Me, So Please Stop Trying And Declare Me The Winner And World Champion Of You Can't Find Me, So Please Stop Trying And Declare Me The Winner And World Champion Of... or as humans call it Hide & Seek. Humans may have a better name for that game. On some planets, it takes so long to say the name that the game never actually begins.

With that in mind, the fourth draft, not the ridiculously long name given celestially to Hide & Seek, I've decided to give Norman Normalson & The Normals some much-deserved recognition. I will be posting more information on Norman and his group of misfit friends. Is 'misfit' offensive, now? At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if the word 'friend' is offensive. Anyway, there's a lot more Norman stuff coming. I'm starting here, as with The L Squad, with the logline. I hope I won't look back on this later, like I did with the logline for The L Squad, and realize it's horribly generic.

Normal Normalson hasn’t been normal since he and his father moved to Epatrus. Adapting to being an alien on an alien world got a lot harder when his half-brother disappeared into a flash of light, and nobody believes what he saw.

If you thought that was exciting, just wait till more stuff comes. We didn't even get to the butt cheese.
