Like people believe in pain

Relatively speaking, I don’t have a lot left to fix in my novel. It’ll still take a chunk of time and work but the bulk of the labor is done.

I think just one of the items is going to be tricky, and I’m going to have to do a lot of brainstorming to figure out the best way to handle it. All the options I’ve considered so far don’t entirely fit; it’ll be fun to find one that does.

This is a First Sentence from 10/22/2017:

Anything can be a weapon if you believe it is. Not like people believe in god. Like people believe in pain. If you know the object leaving your hand will explode on impact, it will, even if it’s only a rock. It’s the one advantage we have, things that aren’t all that dangerous on their own become weapons forged by our will.
