While You Were Dancing

While You Were Dancing (Beta)

This is the Beta version of this book. What this means is that I'm looking for Beta readers to read the second draft of this book and, well, see whether they like it or not! If you're interested, then read ahead, and make sure to tell me what you think afterwards. I'm open to criticism and ideas, just remember to be nice (if you can). 

The final draft of this book will be done once I have edited everything and compiled it into this version. Updates will be sporadic. Sometimes I have time, sometimes I don't. Life is full of uncertainties - let this be a lesson for you.

James Donovan is a 17-year old boy living in Scotland, under deplorably working-class conditions.

His life is devoted to his childhood friend, Irvin McFrye. But on October 11, 1965, his companion makes a hasty disappearance, leaving nothing but a few letters from his father, who he presumed to be dead. Donovan feels compelled to carry on the search for him, in spite of the odds.

Torn between longing for his friend and the deep desires he harbours for Hernandez, a Spanish migrant from Andalusia, Donovan must venture through the darkest crevices of his mind, whilst being forced to make a choice dependent on the ones he loves.
