There was a pitchfork painted on the bottom of the pool. I'd imagine it animating and piercing me through as I dog paddled. So I stopped going in. Why are you reading so much? my mother asked. Aren't you going in? "This book is good," I said, and it was - an adventure story about living life to the fullest.

Most excellent opening for a longer work Charlie. I'll bet there is a lot of story to be told.
