A
coming-of-age drama about a boy in his late teens (Charlie) who suffers from Fantasy Prone Personality yet aspires to become
a writer. He lives with his family in Oxford. His brother, Dion, has taken the
duty of having his brother be friends with his own friends due to his condition
making it hard to make friends. His brother is a few years older attending a
local art college and has friends who live locally in a student house with many
of them sharing. Dion offers Charlie drugs that will ‘augment creativity’ as he
is having problems writing. When taking the drug this proves to be correct, yet
his condition enhances the surrealism of the drug thus often making it
difficult to differentiate with reality and his trips. Charlie becomes more
indulged in the drug as it does in fact make his writing better. One trip Charlie
sees Dion in harm, leading him to depression, yet this is just a faction of
surrealism/FPP condition creating this alternate reality. Concluding the narrative,
Charlie realises that the drug is dangerous and writes about his events of the
drug, making a successfully selling story - 191 words.
