Nick the Superhero

New from NIXCO PUBLISHING DIV, a part of JP Publishing

Nixco are proud to present the first draft of a manuscript by their recent discovery Master Edward Piron. While on a cycling tour of Cambridgeshire our Director came across burgeoning author Eddie Piron, labouring in his lonely garret on the edge of the windswept and mysterious Cambridgeshire Fens. He was given shelter from an impending Steppe-born blizzard by Master Piron where he was invited to share the Author's sparse meal of a bowl of 'Cocoa Rocks'. Later that evening while mooching around the house to keep warm, our Director came upon this ms on the pages of that budding author's vehicle of choice; the School Exercise Book. While perusing said ms, he managed to dislodge a molar-impacted 'rock' with his prehensile tongue, the sudden burst of chocolate on the tastebuds reminding him of the unstinting generosity of his diminutive host, he made a vow that such literary talent should not go unrewarded and so we present (almost unedited), for your delight:

how to become a superhero
To become a superhero you need a load of coloured cloth, a pair of scissors and a bannana incase you get hungry. Then you need to make sure its in your size otherwise you could look fat or, iff its too small you might get blown up. Once you’ve done that you need to fly off and do super things like mend fences and-
Iff you do that you’re not a superhero. First of all iff you’re hungry take a bit of the bannana. Then you need to do prop-er super things like save inocent people from firey biulding-s and things like that. But something even worse than that could happen in this story. Now you can go on to chapter one...

Chapter 1
The beggining of Nick Hayes

Once upon a time there was a zero year old named Nick. He died in I’mm not going to tell you because you’ll give it away years. A fact about the most spectacularly ordinary pupil imaginable. This chapter is called The beggining of Nick for a great, brilliant, spectacular, superb,fabolous and good reason. But in the last chapter of this book you might be in for a bit of a shock. I wouldn’t in one million years tell you what its called (because you might already know) but I can tell you something that would give you a very good idea of what it couldn’t be called: it isn’t the end of Nick.
By the way, I can tell you what chapter two is called because you won’t want this chapter to go on for years and years until you get to tired to read any longer. The thing is I’ve for-gotten what chapter two is and I don’t want to go back to the contents. Ha, ha! Ok, Ok, I’ll tell you. Its called 53 years later. Now days Nick is fifty-three years old. In the future he went on a wild adventure named chapter eight. But for now we’ll say that Nick Hayes is a zero year old who has just born and has no idea what will happen when he’s a grwn up. I should tell you something though. Iff you haven’t read chapter zero you must read it imedeately. This is serious as-well as amazingly humorous. The reason this is, is because only one person in a galaxy is aloud superhero responsabil-ity. Don’t ask yourself why I said that, it was for a brilliant reason. First of all this is not a true story ok?
Second of all Nick’s mum and dad were the only couple brave enogh to give Nick superhero responsability.
And third of all, don’t go thinking “everyone is gonna be a superhero!” because they aren’t.
So, you now no about superheros, their responsability and what might be happening later on in this story. But you’ll still be wondering how the rest of the story will go I haven’t told you the whole story yet. Wonder as much as you like but it’ll take a long time until you get to find out the mystery of mainly chapter eight, but also chapter three, four and five. Find out as chapter one comes to a sad end.

Chapter 2
53 years later

Fifty three years later, Nick Hayes sat on his bed being dificult with himself.

Here's a picture of the successful graduates of the Nixco School of Writing and Learning, well not really but here's some of last year's students at their Graduation last week. If you're viewing this page then you either have remarkably good taste or you've followed up the address from the WLM "flier" enclosed in the Pharmacology Students Welcome Pack.

So why have you arrived at one of my blogs? The simple answer is because someone dropped the address onto my flier "for a laugh". However, writing a blog can be a good way to expand your writing skills, you can use it to try and iron out the things that aren't making sense to you, you can use it as a diary of how miserable/ecstatic you feel (remembering that the entire world can read it of course), or you can use it to hone your web construction skills. I use them to become famous and have Publishing Houses begging at my door for copy, so if you know anyone in publishing then please push them in this direction.
