Slimy bugs can be used to scare girls or to feed survivalists being filmed by television crews.
Only, in today's world more and more little girls are not scared by slimy bugs, and pretty much all shows that document survivalists and their gross, slimy bug consumption can only be found on cable. I dropped cable a month ago.
To conclude, most of the slimy bugs I see nowadays are on the undersides of the stones I collect to use as markers when I need to dig a new grave in my backyard.
Slimy bugs . . . eh.
I am familiar with the concept of using an outline first before you start your novel. I've been in an audience and listened to authors discuss the subject, more than once actually, and it seemed that the big-time authors usually were the onces who used outlines.
Which falls in line with my sales figures for the year. Of the nine books I have written, I've used an outline for only one, and that's because the outline was already created. That book isn't out yet. It's called Pocket Hole, and it started off as a graphic novel. I put the graphic novel together with my friend AJ Bell and we released a first issue. Looked great.
We got stalled on the second issue though, so I decided to try and convert the graphic novel into a full-on novel. The thumbnails for the whole story were done, so really, I had more than an outline, I had an outline with pictures. The novel came together quick and easy and it's really a fun book. Like I said, I'll probably put it out in a month or two.
Anyways, since then I've written another book, without using an outline, and now I'm starting the latest, which will be a big book (first in a trilogy) and it won't be set in this world. At least not beyond the first chapter. So, I'm doing a little world creating and I think an outline might help.
I saw a guy the other day with a lighting bolt tattooed on the back of his hand. This was something he did on purpose.
I have no experience with tattoo parlors, but what the tattooed guy basically did was allow another guy to stick needles into his hand repeatedly. This second guy had likely been featured recently on a television show where the theme music to the show had words in it like "bad boys" and "what ya gonna do." Money exchanged hands in this transaction, and inexplicably, it was the second guy who got the money.
Women pay doctors to remove varicose veins from their legs, even though many times the veins in their legs look like lighting bolts.
I am going to assume the difference here is a Women are from Mars, Men are from Venus kind of thing.
Lighting Tattoos . . . eh.
Oingo Boingo was a band that held guitars and played saxophones sometime in the 80s and 90s. In the band's early days they labored under the monicker Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo, but that didn't make any sense so they shortened their name to something that did make sense.
Danny Elfman, King Boingo to his friends, disbanded Oingo Boingo when his best friend Tim Burton gave up fashionable haircuts for Lent. This seemed like a poor reason to many fans, but it worked out well for King Boingo because he was going deaf from all the dead man parties.
King Boingo now lives in Hollywood and periodically waves a baton.
Oingo Boingo . . . matters.
