You know what I really love? Postapocalyptic and society-rebuilding stuff. I don't even need a plausible excuse, I'm willing to just jump in and go, "Okay, great. The world got destroyed. What now?"

You should check out "Souls in the Great Machine" -- very cool post-apocalyptic stuff.

Are you trying to suck up to me? (If "demolished land" = "small town surrounded by barrier with Apocalypse outside"...)

I am, however, wanting your first chapter. But you must tell me what level of reading and/or editing you want.
