Rewriting an Award Winner

 The Chronicles of Mark Johnson

Alan Place - Editor

You may ask, why rewrite your award winner?

The answer is not long after the stories earned their award, I took an editorial course, and in reviewing the MS, I can see flaws, both in the style of writing, and the story flow.

My hope is to edit the MS, and release the new version on my Amazon page.

I have nothing to lose, as the book was sabotaged, in 2012, by an editor I used to know, she was jealous I had eared an award, as she kept putting my work down online

Alan Place - Sex Object?

Yesterday, Twitter marked two of my posts for Adult Viewers, this gives the impression I am posting images or videos of an intimate type, nothing could be further from the truth.

I was invited by several young ladies to partake in their Only Fans videos, but for several reasons I turned the offer down. I found it distasteful to show myself to girls younger than my youngest daughter (31).

I have never considered myself attractive to ladies, however, in recent months, it appears several ladies find me attractive.

Sexual Content

I had to smile this morning, Twitter has marked two of my posts as Adult Content. From this, you could think I had posted images, or videoes of sexual content, nothing is further from the truth. This is the most revealing image I am posting.

I don't mind the site flagging the posts, it has raised the numbers of readers 😼😼

 Provocative Words

Twitter Twists

A few minutes ago, I had to warn a lady on Twitter, than her words could be misread, and lead to a lot of trouble.

She has one photograph showing her with her legs open, and wearing a pink teeshirt, the mesaage she put on says, "Guess what else is pink, and can't be seen?"

She contacted me, asking me to move to Zangi, which I did. Her original comment was "Show me your dick, please." To which, I replied, "If you show me your panties."

After a quck chat about arousal, I asked her what aroused her?

Her reply is "I am not willing to chat about that," considering her opening remark was less than ambiguous, I found her prim and proper reply off putting. I know many men would have caused a row after reading her comment about a man's penis. I let the matter drop, with a message warning her not to lead men on

Too late the Hero

 The Awakening

Alan Place - Writer

Last month, there was masses of interest in my book, The Awakening, unfortuately, the interest came too late to save my carreer as a writer, five years too late.

After a 15- year struggle to get reconition, I gave up writing. I always knew it wouldn't be a success, but at least I did have a moment in the highlights, in 2012 a book of short stories earned an award. Then, nothing.

How ironic, my golden year was the same year as the year the world was supposed to end LOL, well, mine did end

David Bowie or Bertolt Brecht?

 Mythology

Baal

When the name Baal is mentioned, most people associate it with the character in Mythology. 

In Germany, the name is also associted with the opera by Bertolt Brecht.

Devout David Bowie fans may recall, he did a mini-opera, the soundtrack I have heard.

However, the character in my eBook is not related to any of the above.The character in my short story,  is a storyteller, more akin to a character in the Black Library stories based in Medieval History.

My Baal is a storyteller, whose wishes are to please his listeners, and have enough for a meal, and a place to rest at the end of the day.

Drax of the title is a hound who he finds wandering, and as they grow together, he finds out some disturbing news about a mystical being emerging
