The publication of FUTUREPROOF will culminate a four-year-long' grassroots' literary movement that began when N. Frank Daniels began to distribute a self-published version of his novel. Based solely on word-of-mouth and reader reaction' an active online community grew around the novel and in support of Frank's mission to get a major book contract. We found Frank on MySpace and are happy to say that he has succeeded.
FUTUREPROOF is the story of Luke and his friends as they attempt to navigate the vicissitudes of life after dropping out of high school. After a violent and explosive separation from his mother and step-father' Luke is engulfed by the delinquent sub-culture of Atlanta' GA. In short order' the seemingly harmless high from his first cigarette sends Luke on a downward spiral that ends only after years of deranged self-abuse. It is an extreme cautionary tale told with sensitivity' ferocity' and grit--exactly what one would expect to emerge from the popular groundswell of the internet.
In the author's own words' "FUTUREPROOF is about the ways a person can construct his own redemption through faith' acceptance and determination." And as James Frey' an early supporter of the book' said' it's "really good shit."
