The Unkempt Hole In the Wall—ahem, “The Cushy Corner Tavern”—was filled with sordid types that night. A group of ruffians guffawing in one corner. Watermir land sharks, the ensign guard, over there, discussing the crimes of the day. And three travelers enjoying a late dinner.
Character Profile 5: Rargem Reddale
What do you think of my thief? He actually morphed quite a bit during this character sheet, and I like him better. Now he can fill a role I discovered I needed for my story and without the derivative feelings he’d had before.
Ruled By the Sign of Fear
People can become cogs in a wheel of a machine they did not build. The machine is fear and the fuel is each citizen’s blood, sweat and tears.
Rules Make Stricture
What if by extending beyond the so-called rules of a society, by being outside the norm, a person might experience just what it needs and expand its own consciousness to new levels?
Signs, Signs, Everywhere a Sign
When I lived in New York City I often crossed the street—as many New Yorkers do in their constant haste—even when the “Walk” sign was not lit. I’d laugh to myself and could spot a tourist at once when they waited for the change of sign, even when there was zero traffic.
Character Profile 4: Darron Steele
Darron Steele is the major brawn of the team and will stand up for all the heroes whenever called for. He is just and determined, seeking to right the wrongs he sees, especially in relation to political corruptions he has learned about. And he will become an endearing member of the major five heroes.
Jesus Love You
I bet Jesus is rolling in the grave (wait, he left that one) whenever his name or his teachings are used for controlling others. “No, no, no,” he lovingly shakes his head. “I taught love and to treat each other as equals in God’s eyes.”
The Morality of God
As part of God’s allness we are all one. What we do to others we do to ourselves. Morality becomes inclusive of all.
How Is Hell Holy?
I’m trying to help. I’m trying to heal the idea of hell altogether, so that we can all move past it altogether. Hell is no fun.
God Is the Chord of Creation
We are all in the key of God. We are notes played together in the song of creation. The source of all things, the primordial ‘om,’ the word made into flesh, sings across the multiverse and each of us resonates along with it, each representing one piece, one note in that great chord.
