The life of Quendyn Quarterstorm isn't very noteworthy (so far). It could be a rags-to-riches story, but not really. Although his single mom raised him by herself, they were never destitute. It's not a story of an overnight sensation. He won the All-State Defensive Player of the Year honors during his junior year of high school, but was pretty ho-hum after that. He was a walk-on at the University of Washington with a quiet career of two years.
Quiet... the book will likely focus on how in his high school years his quietness and reticence earned him the nickname "Mouse," and how it inexplicably got out of hand to the point where rumors were abound that he was not a human being, but 26 mice stacked upon each other hidden in clothing. He even began playing the part by wearing clothing and accessories that hid as much of his body as possible. On the football field, the persona was difficult to maintain, but he did his best with a visored helmet, gloves, and compression sleeves and tights.
Quarterstorm will call this book "Of Mouse or Man."
