Dedications Announced

Today, I am happy to announce two very deserving people whom will be dedicated in my book. The following dedication will appear on the second page of "imagine a world"

For Leon and Jessica,
whom had been supportive of me,
since the very beginning.


Both Leon and Jessica were the first ones to read my writing,they praised and helped my writing ever since I started to write 6 month ago, they continued to do so ever since. Thanks to their encouraging words, I continued this hobby of mine enthusiastically;They were one of the reasons why I even got to this point. When I started this fundraiser, once again, they did not hesitate to help me.

To both of you for the warm support of this short start of my writing career, Thank you!

More on "Imagine a world"

Since this book will be fully promoted as the charity fundraiser in a very short while, I guess I am all but forced to give you guys a little bit more details on this would be book of mine.

But before I get to that first, I would like to give you guys a little bit of information of the promoting side of things. Starting next Monday, I would be posting teaser posters of this book around the school, mainly to create interest of this project as well as a message informing people to come to this blog or join the facebook group(p.s if you have a fb account and you are reading here the first time, please join the group as well.) My goal is to reach 500 group members by the end of the summer, in order to do that, I need help from all of you. Please invite as much people as you can!

If you want to help me with the early promotions, you can either just spread the word or contact me to see what you can do. Especially if you don't go to ACI, I would really appreciate those of you to help me spread this to your school too.

Alright on to the book....

This will be the first ever book I will be putting out combined the fact that I am still an undergraduate from highschool will probably mean that my writing will not be the best. I think my vocabulary is not yet big enough and my writing style still needs to be a bit polished. However, the fact that all these stories came out of my heart combined with my descent creativity should make this book at the very least enjoyable to read for most of you.

most of you probably know that this book will be a collection of short stories and poems by me. These stories will all vary in length, topic and theme, but all these stories have one central idea. The idea that people should explore all aspects of life and take enjoyment from it, which will be concluded nicely at the end.

I like to compare this book of mine to a song album. although each song of an album is different, they all work best when they are put together. The order of the stories and poems will be put together with great consideration. It is used to set different mood and mood changes throught the book. Although they are all separated short stories, I think this book will be enjoyed best by reading it in order.

That is all for now, stay tuned!

My first book will be for a good cause!


The kid full of ideas is back again, and this time I will have immediate action.

Since I will be finishing my first "book" by the end of summer and since the chances of getting anything published from an unknown author is extremely slim, I thought of a fantastic idea to not only to get started on my writing career but also making a world a better place.

After I finished this book, I will be printing them out in copies and sell it for a low price( around 3 bucks). ALL the money I earned from this will go directly to a charity foundation(Which one is TBD). This means that I will be covering all the printing costs by my self and which ever money you paid for the book will be the amount donated to that charity

During the summer, I will also be contacting several charities for their support on this charity fundraiser and I will eventually determine which charity I will be donating all the money to.

Eventually, I will expand this into a club sort of thing where everybody can contribute their own writing selling for charity. But for the first book, I will be selling "imagine a world" by me starting from the beginning of next year.

If you are reading this the first time here and is support this idea of mine or is willing to help me, please comment "support" in the comment section of the note on facebook. Once I get 20 supporters, I will make a group titled "Terry's write for charity group" and get started from there. This group will be used for updates and further information. theyoungweatherman.blogspo
t.com will be the official site of this for now and also be used for the same purpose

Thank for all the support and by writing "support", you are already taking the first step for this good cause!

Time to get some updates in

before I start to promote this place fully, I guess I have to get this blog started. If you are visiting this blog, your probably know me on some extend or other. I will be keeping this blog up and posting updates about myself personally, my opinions on thins and such. This will also be the "official website" of my writings and stories until I actually open up a real one. For all the updates, previews and such about all the things I write or will write. This is the place you will get information.

I wont be talking to much since nothing is on my mind right now. Oh wait, there is one thing.... Kim Jong Ils Back!(If you don't know who he is, shame on you :D).

Bye for now, need to get busy with some other stuffs.
