It may be difficult to tell, but I was not raised by Saturday morning cartoons. That doesn’t mean I didn’t watch them religiously. Heroes of all shapes and sizes, fighting evil with: conning, violence, technology, magic, and even friendship and love, what more could a kid want?

So many of these characters have helped shape who I am and how I and what I write. The truth is I’m a big kid. I used to worry about what I was going to be when I grew up, but now I just want to stay a kid. There is so much creativity, potential, and purity in youth, but I have no need for physical adolescence. I want to remain young at heart. I want to have and believe in love, magic, and hope. Needless to say, but I will anyway, a sense of hope abounds in the Eternal Curse Series.

It’s Like the Full Moon chapter 3.1 (wip)

It didn’t take long for Lisa to latch on to a beverage provider. He was a nice enough looking fellow, obviously younger than her, but old enough to pay for the drinks. Not wanting to spoil Lisa’s fun, but in no mood to drink heavily, Rebecca simply nursed a wine cooler and glass of water as she nibbled on cherries and lemon wedges. Rebecca sat across from Lisa and her latest conquest and watched as they swapped clumsy kisses until Lisa finally stood up and shouted, “Let’s dance!” She grabbed her shy male pet with one hand and Rebecca with the other and led them out to the center of the dance floor. Though hesitant to start, Rebecca quickly loosened up and began to dance. She swayed her hips and curved her arms moved in ways she hadn’t since college. Rebecca closed her eyes and became enthralled with the rhythm of the music and finally dropped her guard and truly had fun.

Character Files from the ToiBox 45: Mr. Thornton- Psych Test

FM-MrT

nomale

Rorschach Testroshack

This is not a real Rorschach test, but simply a fun little additive to the whole character profile motif.

Subject FM 5-Mr. Thornton describe test image #1 as:

The personification of human sorrow and pain, “A monster of our own making.”

This subject seems tired and grieved, and harmless. He’s a realists.
