YOUR WEBMISTRESS
First off, why did I build this site? For
starters, I've been a fan of the Mad Max Trilogy when I first saw the Road
Warrior at the age of thirteen, back in 1981. I'm pretty fucking old, eh?
It wasn't Max or those do-gooders who drew me into this series. I
preferred the villains, especially Wez and his Golden Youth. When I walked
out of the theatre, I thought to myself, "Man, I'd love to study those two
characters and find out what drove them to perform the sadistic acts they did."
I especially wanted to unearth why the Golden Youth chose to follow an
animalistic killer like Wez. I mean, the guy epitomized perfect beauty.
He could have had anyone he wanted, male or female, yet he chose a nut case for
his lover. Thus, I wrote
The Birth of Evil
from the Golden Youth's point of view, trying my best to dig into the
character's soul and find out what could draw someone to touch evil.
One I finished the story, I began
working on Wez's tale since I longed to find out why he was such a sadistic,
insane, crazed maniac in the first place. So I named the story
The Birth of
Humanity because there's such irony in the two situations. Here was
the powerful Wez encountering feelings he didn't think he possessed, all thanks
to the Golden Youth. And in the same breath, his sweet, innocent lover was
being drawn into a world where sympathy, regret and compassion did not exist.
The two characters seem to provide
a certain balance to each other. Mad Dog put it best when she called their
relationship interdependent. Actually, my obsession with fan fiction is
all her fault since she got me started on this genre, haha. And yeah, I
started another Wez and his Golden Youth story called
The Bodyguard. This
came about when Audrey, Mad Dog and I began pondering what Wez and his blond
babe would be like if they lived in modern times instead of the future.
Besides writing original fiction
for about the past twenty years, I also started spinning slash tales over at
Rock Fic, a site devoted to
the hot men of rock-n-roll. And since Megadeth is my fave band to write
about, I also started a new web site called
Slash to Deth. As for my novel series, it's almost finished.
I'm working on the seventh book and this chronicle is my pride and joy. I
also have a sci-fi/fantasy novel I drafted that needs some major editing.
What else do I do since my life is
so focused on writing? Well, I live in the Middle of Nowhere, Canada with
my hubby and we both work. And when I'm not spinning tales on my laptop, I
can be found outside taking Snowy for walks. She's my big baby, an Alaskan
Malamute who thinks she's a kitten. Or we go boating, camping, fishing, do
some gardening, mow the lawn, plant flower beds . . . We both love the outdoors.
Let's just say we live a quiet sort of life. My days of partying, drugging
and drinking are long done, but I did have a helluva good time in my youth when
I was being a total wild child, haha.
Besides all these quiet interests
and hobbies, second place to writing is music. Actually, if you search out
the music links I provided, you'll see who I'm a big fan of, but at the top of
my list is Judas Priest! I live, eat, and breathe music.
Okies, that's enough about me.
So have a look around and I hope you enjoy the web site.
