Quick character preference survey:

Is Mel (the short, heavy female character):

You can just state your preference, no need to elaborate if you don't feel like it.

Eric Storm

I would be most interested in a 1.(Really wild in bed) or secondly a 3.(more playful than anything in bed) but would not mind another 2.(very emotional/connected in bed) but I would like to see the other types "explored" more first.

Speaking of sex in your stories: yes please, thank you, can I have some more sir?

Re: Agent of Change

My other half was an OTR trucker -- was weeks from a 17yr safe driving award when some bat driving an urban assault vehicle (Dodge Durango) took out her Ford Probe and tried to take her right food with it (put the brake pedal through both bones of her leg) making a left turn on red.
She had some stories. One of them involved her pulling a "flatbed reefer" and hauling frozen apple juice, IIRC, from WA to CO.

Re: Agent of Change

A flatbed can easily be a reefer in the winter, just hope it doesn't warm up before you unload

Re: Agent of Change

It's not unknown,  I've hauled loads before that needed kept cold in my dry van. I've also hauled freight where I was told it couldn't freeze and it was winter, was told just to drive straight thru with limited stops🙄

Staying in the mountains with forecasts of below-zero highs while carrying the load.
The company hiring the truck needed four pallets delivered ASAP, and Rene got directed to pick up.


She also knew a driver who got a six-digit paycheck for driving a very light trailer to Norfolk, VA. Turned out to have a near-fist-sized cargo, suspended by an eight-point tension system: supposedly a N-detonator.

She ran swinging beef in reefers (she'd rather haul liquid in an unbaffled tanker), grain in dry-bulk containers (she'd still rather have run liquid in an unbaffled tanker), beef on the hoof, and potatoes/onions in the same trailers after they'd been cleaned. She once had her tractor lit up with over 100 running lights and then added X-Mas lights on top of that. Her first experience behind the wheel was giving her pickup (she was hitchhiking) a break, then needing to be caught by that driver at the chicken coop to get out. She had a cop tell her to make a turn where her fully loaded (figure about 17,000 pounds per axle) trailer would pull a monster truck roll-over on a Porsche, then that cop gave a ticket to the dispatcher who put her at that intersection (near downtown New Orleans during Mardi Gras). She once got a ticket for speeding AND obstructing traffic at the same time from a power-tripping cop -- the judge threw it out.

She ran from TX to Los Angeles @ 100mph with an empty trailer and DOT running her front door (her mom was going to be disconnected from life support).

Near seventeen years without an accident or sustained ticket while putting millions of miles behind her and she was taken off the road by an idiot who thought that her "safe" urban assault vehicle allowed her to be careless on CA roads (three prior, serious accidents within the prior two years). CA judge let the idiot off because her victim had a TX license (even though she spent her school years not even a mile away from where she was hit).

Re: Agent of Change

So am I assuming you have ghost writer assistance on some of these storys? It is OK just asking since I was not aware. For this question I am defining a ghost writer as someone under direct supervision where you must approve before publish.

Re: Agent of Change

Bite your tongue.  (And that's a direct order, Chief!)  I have tried collaboration in the past, and it failed every time.

Bridget and Tala are my muses.  Bridget handles mostly plot-heavy stuff.  Tala likes to get laid.

PS:  Before further misunderstanding ensues:  Neither one of them has a corporeal body.  Wish they did... but you shouldn't: I wouldn't have enough energy left to actually write anything down!  3dbig_smile

Re: Agent of Change

So since Woodward is finished i hope you focus more on this one. As much as i liked Woodward i realy want to know how Nick will change the world and before that how you plan on settling his argument with his father. Are you going to use one of the usually used tropes or are you going to think of something new or using a rarely used trope?

*shrugs*  I'll be honest, I do not think in terms of tropes.  I don't even know what things are considered tropes and what aren't.  I just try to do something that makes sense in the context of the story I'm writing.  I don't concern myself with whether that thing is commonly used or not. 

Let's face it:  Most of the things that are commonly used, it's for a reason:  Those are the things that most often happen in those situations.  For instance, "Jealous wife poisons her adulterous spouse" is a trope because... jealous wives have frequently murdered their adulterous spouses by poisoning them.  No reason to avoid that scenario because it's commonplace, you just need to make it work within your story.  And that's what I'll do with Nick and his father. 

(No, I'm not going to have his wife poison him... probably...   3dangel  )
