Writing a book:
I never wrote a book, but I think now maybe the best time I am going to use this format as my book that I am going to write.
My day started as any other senior in High School, being in a small town, life was boring, the economy was not good. And I was a lucky high school kid who landed a job in a gas station. It was in June when I walked in this gas station and the manager was playing a game on his phone, he didnt even look up and said "Bathroom is around the back" I was actually kinda startled, one I didnt need the bathroom, and two why would he say that? I spoke back"Sir I am looking for a job, I need to make some money this summer." He gave me that stare as he just lost what ever he was playing, and said "What" I have 100's of applications, and you walk in and just ask? Have you not hear of Indeed? He asks in this like bothersome voice.
No I haven't but I can apply Indeed if that is what you want, or you can just give me the job and we can go on, plus I think you are playing World War 3, (A War simulator game) and I know cheat codes to help you farm gold. And like that Rick the manager, goes on and says your hired, what is your name? I said John, John Williams. And he looked up in amazement, and replies back and says you are the John Williams I said, I didn't know I was famous.
See I won the Texas State wrestling championship, and the town I live in we only had three wrestlers, then I won the junior under 18 Karate tournament as well. So I guess the papers made a big deal of both.
So then began my summer of pumping gas, changing tires, doing oil changes, and helping Rick make Supreme Commander in the World War 3 phone app game.But despite my fame I was single in the high school life. While football players gathered all of the attention in school a part time wrestling program where I have to find opponents in the neighboring cities on a off night as there is only 3 of us, does not make people notice me. Actually, The football letterman dinner was tied into me getting my state championship ring.
But it was summer and off I go into the world of business.

THE START OF A NEW WAY OF LIFE
I just read Ready Player One. Some say, stuff like that is fiction. But is it? If you look at the book, the people are living in a game. In this game, you go to school, go on quests, work, collect rewards, and even order items to have your items delivered. Interesting concept, to do all of this online. Wow what a life. You can create your own account, hide it, log in anywhere in the world and move forward just as if you are just a spectator. You can do extra things, you can build a circle of friends, and you can hang out in the privacy of a private location. You can send text messages, you can do video chat, you trade goods and you can help new players.
The currency used is Bitcoin, or something to that effect. This is one of the most bizarre things I have ever heard of, Ordering things online? Oh, and corporations are part of this world as well, They are hiring people to help reach the ultimate goal. So basically, people are being paid to play a game on online! Richer people can buy more credits to amass a strategic hold over the haven-not's. I wonder, if we do not see this happening? People said Eagle Eye, Live Free or Die Hard, even the Net were just things that could never happen.
