Storyline
Unsure of where to start, you hesitate for days and get hit with a nasty case of writer's block. One night, your fear of failure invades your dreams, and a shadow appears to you!
'It begins...sleep is for the dead...' you hear something whisper.
'AWAKEN!'
You feel yourself being dragged out of bed by the leg like a ragdoll.
'Find Wolfe Tone,' it demands, tearing your bedroom door off its hinges on its way out.
