Here are my notes for Manifest Destiny, the sci-fi novel I wrote from an idea Sabatino Stefanile, my screenwriter friend, thought up. It was a lot of fun to write but gory, scary and gut wrenching as well. Dolly, the main character, took me on an incredible voyage with an ending which shocked even me. I love when the Muse just takes the reins and leads me on a journey like this. It was an amazing trip.
