Not surprising that you prefer to get away from it all by reading sci fi adventures. But love of books makes you different too. What to do? Find other kids just as weird as you and share the stories in your mind. Gender point of view: Irrelevant. Awards: Finalist in "Barebones" Category, 2004 Austin Songwriters Group     CONTACT DENNIS  to request sheet music and/or a CD or MP3 for this song.
