Dissident: A Novel

Hey...I have recently published my first novel 'Dissident' which was inspired by the song of the same name off of the Vs. album. I wrote this story 12 years ago in college as a screenplay assignment and have recently turned it into a novel.
The story centers on the Evolution vs. Environment debate and attempts to answer the question - If a child is unwanted at conception can it every truly be wanted? I know this is not what the song Dissident is truly about, but like I said, it inspired my story with Eddie's utterance of "soon he was down and soon he was low and at a quarter-past, a holy no. She had to turn around." I took the point of view of a woman giving birth who didn't want her child and abandoned him/her, and thus my story was born.
I don't know if I am allowed to post my Website info on here in fear of getting kicked off. But if anyone is interested in my novel...drop me a line. jonathan@jmferranto.com
