About The Confession

I started writing a novel in 2021, and spent a long time writing background, allowing me to shape the world, and also just to get some practice writing. This has been on pause for the last few months, but I’ve picked it up again recently, and decided I wanted to share some of the “other” writing.

The Confession is the first piece of fiction I’ve ever shared, outwith creative writing projects in high school.

It’s about some people who live in the world I'm building, before the main events of the novel. The narrator is (probably) the main character of the novel. He and Thomas are part of the community that is the setting of the novel. The Watchtower is a focal point of that community, but in this story it mostly just adds a little atmosphere. The Troubles aren’t really relevant to the bigger story; they were a vehicle for sharing ideas, and a bit of shock.

I really enjoyed writing The Confession, and hope to share more like this in future. I hope you like reading it.
