Last Year's Echo, Preface, Part I
May. 16th, 2017 05:04 pm Well, here is where I go big or go home! Hope this works.
So this purports to be the first part of the Preface of AU John's memoir. Early childhoods explained by an ersatz John Lennon. Forgive me the liberties I take. The detail I've added, beyond what you can find on the Internet or the biographies, is pure fiction, but I hope this helps to drive the story while still being believable. :) For example, I have no idea if John's mother had a mental illness, although based on what I've read about her, it seems highly likely to me. I also tarted up John's early school years to fill in detail and make them more pitiful. For the story's sake. But I do base it on John's own general comments about his miserable school years.
A reminder: when the story moves from part of the "memoir" to 'present day' - meaning late 2005 - the present day stuff will be in italics.
WARNING: THIS IS FICTIONAL: Drops of reality surrounded by a sea of fiction!
