You are using a children's book? I never sold one copy of this working at B/N!

Hello Queen Bee!

Your profile picture resembles a very good friend of mine.

Do you honestly think that the majority of people walking through B/N no what a good story is?

My story is epic in proportions, something very real and abstract at the same time. I assure you it does not make for good child reading, as the genius of my creator holds both history and all that is possible in his hands.

"An enemy, Ender Wiggin," whispered the old man. "I am your enemy, the first one you've ever had who was smarter than you. There is no teacher but the enemy. No one but the enemy will tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you where he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on I am your teacher."
