Well, my research in one half of this story is almost done. Diagrams for the campus is drawn, the research on tenure is virtually done. now i just gotta figure out where to send the poor character. This is where you all come into place. You vote, and I'll write about it in the first chapter.

the poll will run for 7 days.

the story is going to be a mixture of fantasy and reality. To make life easier for me, the college Lucas Dagget works at is going to be fictional. The majority of the story is about this professor and his search for the "perfect story". From story arch to story arch he will be traveling to various places around the world, researching first hand the different folklores and myth's that are popular within those regions.

I am obviously, taking some of the idea from a few big books and movies i've read in my childhood, but I've always enjoyed this genre of storytelling, and wish to bring to life, the folklore of different cultures to the reader.

I want to make this more of a fantasy/mystery type of a genre. demons, demi-gods, and the such are seen in the area's he's studying etc. I'm sure yall catch the general idea now.

I've been trying to hold off on giving away too much information on the story I am planning on as of right now. I know that you are rather busy with your own workload Mikey, and I didn't want to add to your burden.

Besides, right now, i am still in the research section of this first chapter so it's unsure as to when i'll be even near completion.

But i am very excited about this particular concept. It's a combination of things I've always been very interested in.

I believe it's been about a week now. So Indonesia has the victory! I'll prolly relocate my polls for future adventures to the forum for my website. Thank you all for your participation. Maybe next time the folks who voted for India will get a chance ^^
