So, what the hell can I talk about that might keep your interest for longer than three seconds? I had a talk with my literary agent and he tells me I need to add some regular content to my sites to keep my readers in the 411 on how I’m doing, what I’m up to, yadda yadda yadda. I find it’s kinda hard to not listen to him because when I look in the mirror, well, he kinda looks just like me. So, here I am awake at 4 a.m. tapping away on the keys trying to convince the Sandman into giving up some of his time to you readers. He and I will have to come to some sort of deal, from here on out, so I can punch out some word love to you guys. I’ll be here on a regular basis, reaching out to you, so this is my promise … or perhaps my threat. (haha) You’ve been warned.
OK, Caesar’s Move, my latest brain child, what can I say about it? How can I tempt you people still riding the fence to hop down and grab yourself a copy? Well, It’d be time better well spent than crushing all that damn candy or watching some silly cats fall off of counter tops on the Y-tube. It’d give your brain something with more substance to feed on, for sure.
Lamarr? Who in the hell is Lamarr? Lamarr is a character in Caesar’s Move. He might not be the main character. He might not be the sub-co main character. He might not even be the sub-co main character’s second sidekick. He is definitely a character I enjoyed creating. Now, just how can I talk about him that doesn’t give anything away? Lamarr is one part of a many, per say se, that you will be introduced to. He is not the greatest of the many, not the least of the many, simply, a portion of the many. The many are a group entity within the story that all have a common denominator. Each person, in this group, is introduced in, let’s say, merely a statistical, generic type manner. Somewhere in the midst of each of their ‘introductions’ you will find Lamarr. I decided, when I brought him into the mix, to give him a little bit more of a connection with the reader. I decided to introduce him in such a way that would cause the reader to ‘get to know him’ more so than the others. I wanted you to not only read about him but to care about him. Lamarr needed to have a closer bond with you. He needed to pull on your heart strings just a little bit more. I found it exciting to create him. Challenging to tempt you into loving him. And fulfilling when I … Whoa there! Pump the breaks, Angelo. Anything more and you gotta commit to it. Anyway, when I thought about it, it was an easy one to pin down. Who was my hidden gem? The one who touched me as the writer to introduce to you, the reader … Lamarr.
So, if you’re still sitting on the proverbial fence on whether or not to climb down and give Caesar’s Move a shot … just know, in the south we put tin cans and glass bottles on ‘them there fences and target practice with’em.’ So, just know, I’m gonna keep slinging my word bullets at you until you either decide to come down or you fall off. Either way, do yourself a favor, enough with the candy and cats. Feed your brain. It’s starving. Sugar coated felines aint gonna do the trick. It’s about as cheap as a Sonic combo meal but it aint gonna add the pounds or bump up your cholesterol the same. Try a Caesar’s Move salad instead. See, you’re healthier already. Thank you. (haha)
And this is my content. Perhaps the guy in the mirror will be happy and back off of me a little. It’ll be on my Facebook page, my website (angelobain.com), and in my (newly offered) regularly occurring newsletter (angelobain@yahoo.com). You can sign up at the bottom of the page. I’m working to get all the bugs out of my website as to allow you smoother access in signing up (and in general) for my newsletter and commenting. I’d love to hear some feedback from you. So, if you’re connected to only one or two then you’re covered. It’ll get to you. If you know someone who has candy/cat glaze in their eyes and want to set them free … turn them on to one of my outlets.You might just save their life.
It’s been fun. Sandman and I came to an understanding with myself emerging the victor. All in the name of providing mental content for you. I hope this kept your attention for longer than three seconds. See you on the next go-around. Until then, feed your brain. You owe it to yourself.
Angelo
