I'm trying to write a novel, and would like to ask you if the opening is intreaging. It's based on the surreal things that happen in the mind of a mental pacient. Chapter One: An Extract from Sentemine’s diary Entry One: Taking in to account recent events, I have decided to write down my thoughts, experiences and ideas. I’ll start with a brief introduction of the events that made me start keeping this diary. I am Sentemine. I am a cat, or at least a cat is what I would be, if I were real, but I am not.

He arrived slightly late, bringing with him the fused smells of the less than appealing asylum food, and his own fowl sweat. Despite the unpleasant smells radiating from him, I was able to stay near enough to him to be able to dart through the food slot, before he had pushed through the plate. “I’m back, but I shan’t be staying long” I told Lynda, the woman who’s mind I exist in.
