Hey you!

Yes, YOU! Lemme make it clearer for ya, you readers! Will (or Wiley but don't use that, please) Carpenter here, a 10th grader! Well, umm... This is my real name (I guess). Whatever! I'm slipping off the main point. This is Season 1 by the way!

Wanna know a secret?

Whether you really want to or not, I'm gonna tell you anyway, 'cus y'all can't just pop into the book and tell everyone about it. Ha! So I have this stalker called Greig Smirnov? Yeah, I guess that's what the name was. So, anyway, this Smirnov guy has been stalking me ever since I was... born. Terribly bizarre, huh?

But that's the least of my worries now, as we have moved to Nashville, Indiana, from Minnesota, joined Phoenix High, met the annoying – I mean amazing – Mr. Horace Sparrow, but we just call him Sparrow, and yeah, my best pal, Richie Marsh! We're like soap and lotion. Yeah, I know that's a weird simile... Is it even a simile? Nevermind!

Okay, then we met Amber Letters somewhat two months after we reached the 10th grade, and there's something I need to tell you. I felt some tension between Amber and Richie soon after. You think they're gonna get together? I won't ruin your inquisitiveness, so you gotta find out on your own. And don't ask me in person 'cus I might just get really exhilarated and blurt out what happened!

And now, we're having a summer break and I'm gonna be an 11th-grader in two and a half months. Stay tuned with us to find out whether my identity gets revealed (which I hope doesn't happen by the grace of Providence but I dunno!) and if that stalker actually finds us!

I gotta go now. We're currently in Keys, Florida, and I gotta go surfing with Rich. And read the book, okay? Or you're... grounded. For three weeks! I'm kidding! I can't even ground a frickin' cricket. Just... read the book... even if you don't like it. I gotta say the author's got a really bad sense of humour!

Alright then! See ya!
