I was interviewed 7/16 by Hollywood Jesus – it was an IM interview, so if some of my answers seem a little stream-of-consciousness, that’s how I am in chat… My interview with Gem from Time Well Wasted went live this morning.
More coming soon!
General Stuff Fridays:
My friend Ami’s clan was a laughingstock, but she wore her family’s colors proudly. Where the rest of us wore earth colors, colors taken from our natural fibers, our animal skins and furs, her clan dyed wool to be brightly colored. They did a bad job of hunting after that, bright red more »
Scenes Thursdays:
When Wal-Mart put in the world’s largest kids’ ball pit, Johnny was thrilled, but it made my breath catch in my throat.

Macguffin Wednesdays:
Dump trucks have fascinated me – they’re huge, powerful, spraying rocks dirt on the road, destroying windshields and blocking vision. They’re usually too dirty to identify where they’re working, and most don’t even have license plates.

character sketch Monday:
Alexandra is a strange girl. When she was born, so was her personal god – Mister Johnson. This was no guardian angel, but an actual god came into being. The God of Alexandra. She would hold no gods before him, and she would pray to, worship, and sacrifice to him. He had more »
