That's a great idea!
I'm really not that good. I got the idea from my friends. Then it just developed into that. I re-wrote it about 20 times (no exaggeration) I changed bits around and swaped words loads.


Any advice?

Maybe you could add a passage about when the woman first saw the book...?


I did post this: http://www.goodreads.com/story/show/4...
But that was a poem from the end of last school year.

Here it is:
I can’t believe the missus just left me! We’d been together for ten years, yet here I am, forgotten. Doesn’t she remember our adventures? We laughed, we cried, and I never left her side. Despite our unique bond, I’ve slowly faded from her vision. And now I realise, I am invisible to her. I feel broken, like I’ve been torn apart. Abandoned, discarded for a ‘newer model’.
So here I lay, my skin wrinkled with age. It’s queer how my outside deteriorates as time goes by, yet on the inside I remain unchanged. My voice, my words still the same.
Five excruciating days passed by and I sit here still. I don’t feel dejected, nor do I feel elated. I’m overwhelmed with numbness. This is a pain in itself, inferior to anything I have ever felt. The nothingness inside my building up until I feel I’m in a coma. I’m still alive but every minute that goes by I slowly fade away. Darkness is consuming me; no longer do my words have any meaning to me. At first I tried to fight the dark but I no longer saw reason, so I let go and fell deep into the ominous gloom. After all, why should one exist when there is no one to share things with?
Me and my missus would stay up well into the night together until eventually she’d fall into slumber. I’d lay by her side as still as I could, not wanting to wake her. But if the window was left open, I couldn’t help but shiver. The intimacy we shared was the unsurpassed part. I can almost feel my missus’ fingertips cascading down my spine, her sweet breath caressing my face. But of course these are no longer; it is only memories that linger.
