I keep telling them they’re lives will go on, just without me peering over their shoulders all the time, to which Marsh’s response usually involves shrooms and shadows, and other interesting things, while Roeglin just gives me a look that says he’s seen inside my head and, damn, it needs a spring clean. The kat, on the other hand, just yawns, stretches and flicks her tail in a derogatory way, leaving me to wonder if any of them will complain if I open a shadow door right underneath them.
Still, recalcitrant characters aside, it’s been a bit of a wild ride, and I might be glad to write something restful for a while... if only I can work out what that is. In the meantime, Book 4 will be here soon, and the adventure continues.
I hope to see more of you on the way.
Author Notes - Michael Anderle
March 28, 2019
THANK YOU for not only reading this story but these Author Notes as well.
(I think I’ve been good with always opening with “thank you.” If not, I need to edit the other Author Notes!)
RANDOM (sometimes) THOUGHTS?
I was walking through a pulp-fiction con last Sunday (where they sold a bunch of old paperbacks from the ’50s to the ’80s) and I ran across a Tarzan table.
I was first thinking, ‘Oh cool, Tarzan!’ (Yes, I speak like that in my mind. I’m over 50, I get a pass.)
The next thought was ‘Wow… that is a LOT of Tarzan.’
Finally, as I turned to keep walking (I have very little space in our Vegas Cave in the Sky (™) I can’t really purchase anything) I wonder…
Is Post Apocalyptic fiction a present-day version of Tarzan?
Think about it a moment…
Tarzan was anti-technology (for the most part) in the story.
Tarzan was man (or woman) against the environment.
Tarzan had a different environment than the readers.
Tarzan had mystical events layered over the story (meaning, they would bring in ‘weird’ stuff.) I am suggesting that changes to the World Post-Apocalypse would be similar.
You never knew what was going to happen, but there were going to be fights involved…
I’m suggesting that those who love to Read Tarzan, would enjoy a good Post-Apocalyptic book or series as well…
So, would YOU enjoy a Tarzan, or did you in the past?
AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS
One of the interesting (at least to me) aspects of my life is the ability to work from anywhere and at any time. In the future, I hope to re-read my own Author Notes and remember my life as a diary entry.
The Cave in the Sky(™), Las Vegas, USA
It’s early morning, I’ve been awake about twenty-five (25) minutes and my glass doors are both covered in black scribbles.
I’ve learned that I can use black erase markers on the doors, and then just wipe it off. This (#Probably) means that my glass will never all be clean again until we sell this condo in the future.
My wife came walking into my office last night after a particularly lengthy conceptioning period working on a book and told me it looked like ‘A Beautiful Mind’ happened.
I haven’t seen the movie, but I’m taking that as a compliment.
