I live in the Bible Belt, and quite a few people, when they found out I write horror gave a look I think they were saving for the antichrist, but since he/she hadn't come along, they decided to give it to me.<BR/><BR/>In the metaphorical sense, one of my friends here at work is a 6 foot 5 behemoth weighing a whopping 350 lbs. Big boy. Rough looking. Looks like a redneck Bubba, the kind you see in the bars always starting fights.<BR/><BR/>He has a small zoo in his house because he loves little furry animals like rabbits and ferrets and yes, dogs and cats. He's an avid vegetarian, and the biggest pacifist I know.<BR/><BR/>Appearances (for books and for people) can be deceiving.David L.

I swear, I really try to act all grown up and ABOVE humor like that, but it just isn't happening.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the laugh!<BR/><BR/>And I'm with you on people judging me like the cover of a book. When I tell people I'm a children's writer, I immediately get the ol': "Wait a second, aren't you a firefighter, too?" Um...yeah! I don't know. Maybe they expect me to write about pumps, friction loss, and fire hydrants. Or wait...maybe I'm not supposed to write at all.

I mean, they ask me the weirdest questions like, "Do you wear leather corsets when at home?" or "Have you really done it with two men like your heroine?"Tempest Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06974312445961412430noreply@blogger.com
