Chapter 4

Big Vickers beats up Hugo. Then a strange thunderstorm comes out of nowhere and makes Big Vickers and everyone else on the beach run away. Hugo just stands back up and the rain doesn't seem to touch him??? It's not clear what's happening.

Chapter 3

Back to the main story, with BIG VICKERS, the father of Little Vickers the baby, hearing her crying and coming running to beat up Hugo. He thinks Hugo is a zombie because of how he looks, and Big Vickers remembers the time his mother thought his dead father had come from beyond the grave to leave phone messages for her, asking if she was cheating on him.

Chapter 2

This chapter is actually just one paragraph talking about the beach where Hugo landed, named Wood Beach. In olden times the beach was actually made of wood instead of sand, and then a city in the sky fell on it and broke up the wood until it was like sand. This is not really even a chapter.

Chapter 1

I have been asked to not quote anything from the story directly and I don't know if that includes even the chapter titles so I will just number them. Chapter 1 begins with a young man named HUGO washing up on a beach. (I think later we know that he is 17-18 years old?) He is unconscious and there is a chain attached to his ankle that goes back into the ocean (Atlantic? Pacific??).

A baby named LITTLE VICKERS finds Hugo and pokes him with a stick. Hugo wakes up and throws up and the baby screams. Hugo is very confused until he notices the chain, which reminds him of something.

This Is Fort Black

This site will be notes and discussion of Chokeville, an online novel I've been trying to read.

My first project will be writing up a plot summary of the story so far. The person writing it is Joshua Allen and he is only making the latest chapter available online, and this is a pain because sometimes I'll miss a chapter and then have no idea what was going on.

I wrote him and asked if he could be less frustrating with this. He wrote me back and said "I will give you access to the archives for six hours". I'm not sure why 6 hours but I went there and copied everything to my computer....I bet he's happy about that!!

Now I'm going to write up a summary of each chapter and people can come here and try to figure out what's going on or see if they missed anything, and I will keep updating my blog as new chapters appear.
