    What’s your Favorite Movie?

    That’s a question that most people know right? What’s your favorite movie? Is it a guilt pleasure, a chick flick? Or is it some action packed thriller keeping you on the edge of your seat. I don’t watch a lot of movies. I don’t sit still long enough. I think my favorite now might be…

  • Social Leper

    Social Leper

    In AJ’s WIP I’m feeling as an outside kinda like a social leper. No one loves me, because no one can remember me. I look inside from my vantage point of being a self aware character in AJ’s head and I know it’s showing me and mine the greatest gift of all – that we…

    600 followers!

    This weekend I hit 600 followers.  That is so awesome.  600 of you have at one point in time thought I was great enough to follow and read regularly.  I’m impressed. Thank you all.  It would not be possible without all of you. And as i promised here is the answers to the tattoos:

  • It’s Me!

    It’s Me!

    So, AJ’s taking part in the NaNo forums this go around.  At a point of why not.  Someone offered to make character pictures in October, so AJ said what the hell, why not. So today I give you me!  AJ might see about commissioning a few more likenesses but after NaNo. Epic props to Caracal…

  • Thunder

    Thunder

    I’m not a big nature person anymore. I mean I liked Colorado and all but the vastness is overwhelming and it’s kinda dirty. The chaos of nature is beautiful but it’s hard on my eyes. But my favorite times in the city is during thunderstorms. Sitting by my window watching the rain fall and the…

  • Bad Habits

    Bad Habits

    We all have them. We all have our quirks. And our flaws. For a long time in my creation, I never did drugs and was only drunk once in my life. But with this iteration AJ pushed me into a self destructive past that was countered with a little love and a cat. Well a…

  • Thrill Seeker

    Thrill Seeker

    When I was younger I was a thrill seeker. I was too young to go on white water rapid trips or skydiving. But I did jump from the heights of the AU building up until the point that I had a tiny cat who relied on my existence to survive. And two brothers who I…

  • Secret

    Secret

    I know I’m being lax with a lot of my posting lately. I apologize. AJ’s busy trying to finish the First Hunt before April 1. But I don’t think we are gonna make it. But today’s prompt inspires me to share one of my all time favorite songs. Secrets as played by the Dallas String…

  • Death and Birth

    Death and Birth

    Again I start off my post with a prelude. I’ve talked about the death of my mother before. More times than I’m willing to say. So I’m not going to go over it again. I have no other family who have died. And I’ve shown you how Venatori treat death in the past. Write about…

    Wishes

    A few days ago I wrote about “Write about one of your most useful talents” So that’s the next question on the 100 questions so I’m not going to answer it. And move on to the next one. What superstitions do you believe in or follow? Do you do certain things to avoid bad luck,…

  • Steak

    Steak

    My favorite food is steak. Plain seared steak with salt and pepper will do on any given day specially if it’s done over a flame. But sometimes you need more: a herb encrusted steak to the rescue. Here is a decent recipe I found on google, but it’s not exactly encrusted – marinated is more…

  • Silly Questions

    Silly Questions

    I had one of those weekends where I was spiraling down hill for no really good reason. AJ was playing games with her love and I had mine wrapped around me but my thoughts still spiraled down. No real reason. So to help cheer me up and entertain you some silly questions to compromise my…

    Interview – Part 3

    Do you pick your nose? I am definitely not a rube So that is a resounding no Do you bite your fingernails? Do you have any bad habits? Bad habits, yes probably more than I can count. I don’t bite my fingernails or anything like that. I have a lot of quirky habits. Eating at…

    Interview – Part 2

    A follow up to yesterday. One more tomorrow I think. Do you iron your clothes? Who does your laundry? Do you do it yourself or do you send it out? Yes I iron my clothes, but not in the traditional way. It pays to have the ability to make steam and hot flat things to…

  • Interview – Part I

    Interview – Part I

    I will always get suspicious when AJ starts looking at character questionaires and such. But when I get to answer them I’m happy. AJ will have answers for other characters too. Since it’s a fun exercise. These are questions asked PRE The Last Phoenix. So beginning story answers. I’m going to do it in three…

  • Heh!

    Heh!

    There is only one thing that comes to mind with today’s word: Dominant Only one thing. And if you know me well I’m sure you know what jumped into my head. No matter how hard you look you will see one thing – I’m not the kinda guy who lets you walk over him. And…

  • The White Rabbit

    The White Rabbit

    Yeah, anyone who knows me knows I don’t like lateness. I can’t stand being tardy. I would so be worse than the White Rabbit in Alice in Wonderland. I’m late, I’m late! for a very important date! It doesn’t have to be important for me to not want to be late. I’m always early –…

    2017 Top Ten Posts

    It’s December 31 and is number 365. I’m impressed. AJ’s impressed. This was an exercise is publishing and sharing words with random strangers. We’ve shared 4 full arc stories, 1 fanfiction to completion and a second one that AJ never finished. And hundreds of posts for your reading pleasure. I’m challenging myself to another year…

  • Merry Christmas

    Merry Christmas

    Christmas was never a big thing for me. This year is different though. Not only am I actually taking up space in AJs head now, I actually have my life going in the right direction in my own story. Though AJ does have a pretty big rewrite in the works. We will finish The Evolution…

  • Creation Myths

    Creation Myths

    Every world and every religion around the world has their creation myths, their lore and their own legends. I know I’ve discussed the creation of the vampires. And the four races in the beginning. And I’ve discussed a little about how the Venatori came to be. But what I didn’t do was tell you about…

    Our Life

    I was excited for Dev. I mean really excited, our New Years Eve party had been a great night, but it had been spectacular for Dev and the boys. Deviated Skeptics had been seen by an music agent. He offered to sign them to his company then and there. They took the deal, and Manson…
