Brief Author Bio:

So I'm a little busier this year.

But I still feel fairly good about what was written in 2008.

My plan is to use last year's draft as an outline for this one. It might be breaking a few rules, but I can assure those of you who might care that I will be retyping every single word, and not keeping a single sentence.

BRILLIANT! will now be called TRY AGAIN. Let's hope it works...

Synopsis: Try Again

TRY AGAIN is the story of clashing egos and clanging guitars. It is the story of one mediocre band's first and final U.S. Tour.

The last thing the world needs is another travel narrative. Scratch that. The last thing it needs is another teenager-comprised rock and roll band. But The Richardnixons aren't aware of these two things, and certainly aren't aware of what disastrous place a combination of them will lead. Besides, if you tried warning them they'd spit at your face and watch you run off crying.

When it comes to the road, and to the saving graces of rock and roll, the last thing The Richardnixons need are unbelievers. The first thing they need is to get there before soundcheck.

The Band:

Charley Discovery – Vocals, Guitar, ego, supreme style
Babybear – Rhythm Guitar, Keyboards, vicious teeth
Georgie Ullman – Drums, physical fatness, self-esteem issues (baker's dozen)
James Donovan – Bass, dead brother's ghost on his shoulders
Braxton Evanson Stephenson – Roadie, Nerd of the Highest Order, video game console

and Victoria — Girl

Please buckle your seatbelt.
