Kirks Top 5: Movies

Image
  Greetings and Salutations, my dark lovelies,                 Hello from the hospital bed of love, and I just wanted to keep you up to date on some things. How did you like Countdown? What about Sonnet Sunday’s “The House?” I thoroughly love that poem; I feel it captures some of the essence of Edgar Allan Poe in it. What do you say? So I figured that from here on out, since the vlog is on the 1 st , I’ll make the last day of the month the Top Five. I’m kind of like I’m ending the month on a bang. So with that, I won’t delay. Here are the Top Fives of July.   Top 5: Favorite Comedies 1.       BASEketball : I utterly adore, love, and quote this movie constantly. I have a Beer’s jersey, which currently doesn’t fit me, and a Beer’s hat. I love Matt and Trey in this life action comedy. It’s pure gold and, I hear, your sister’s going out with SQUEAK! 2.      ...

Kirk's Top 5! The Double Your Pleasure Ozzy Edition

Image
  Greetings and salutations,             It’s Kirk coming to you from the hospital bed of love, to wrap up my love for the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osborne. I was asked to do a top five of either Black Sabbath or Ozzy’s solo career, so I figured, why not do both? So, I’m going to do a double Top 5 as the Oz man deserves both. I know in my blog about him, I gave away my top song by him, but let’s focus more on that. And if you haven’t read the post, that’s fine, it will be news to you here. I’m not going to prolong this any further. First, we’re going Back to the Beginning , see what I did there?  LOL. Seriously, let’s start with where Ozzy did… My Top 5 Favorite Black Sabbath Songs: 5) Sabbath Bloody Sabbath: I’ll be honest, the first time I heard this song wasn’t by Sabbath, it was off Anthrax’s I’m the Man EP. Now, I’m not a huge fan of Joey Belladonna, I liked John Bush better, but he did a good job with this on...

Farwell to Ozzy

Image
So, I know it’s taken some time to do this. Some of which are due to time restraints, resulting from classes, and others are due to processing. Ozzy snuck into my life in 1986; the tape was Bark at the Moon . I got it and remembered hiding it under my bed, terrified at what my mother would say. From the first chords of the cassette, I was hooked. I had always been into Metal, be it KISS or Twisted Sister, I was a fan. But this is Ozzy we're talking about—one of the Godfathers of Metal. I didn’t hold back after that, as I rented The Ultimate Sin concert video from the local video store, and my father first learned I was listening to it. While I didn’t get Sin, I did buy No Rest for the Wicked, on vinyl, nonetheless. I remember putting on my headphones, lying on the couch, and listening to the glory of the record. If Bark started the love of Ozzy, Sin continued it, and Wicked sealed the deal.             One of the cassettes that...

Sonnet Sundays: The House

Image
 Sitting in the corner with my knees to my chest Young somber eyes are denied any form of rest For the visions to stop, I would tear out my eyes Tormented by images of silent cries It’s been so long since I’ve known bed’s restful state Over and over, I experience her fate Forced to bear witness each night to explicit gore The action so gruesome I utterly deplore This trip into madness, there’s no turning back Left with no way to save from the brutal attack Phantom slashes violently appear from her chest The ghostly red liquid splatters the family crest Amazed by the details this house has remembered Her transparent form being slowly dismembered In my life, I’ve not seen something this atrocious Wild animals have never been that ferocious Truly, this creature must have been morbidly sick Extinguishing her life just like the light from a wick Not exactly sure if these specters were married I am apprehensive as to where she’s buried Another night passes, I dare not try sleeping Stay i...

June 2025s Character Corner (The Necro Realm) Re-Cap

Image
This is Amanda "Mandy" Jordan, but please don't call her Amanda, as she hates that name. She is first introduced in The Necro Realm on her 21st birthday. There, she is taken to the club by her friend Cassie, where she meets Draco Lavanov for the first time.               This is Aksimtoma, the Grand Magistrate for the Vampire Council, the oldest known living vampire in the Necro Realm, and Vampiric Father to Draco Lavanov and Callabah.                This is Callabah, the youngest vampire to be Vampiric, born to Aksimtoma, and younger Vampiric brother to Draco Lavanov. Callabah is introduced in the first book of the Necro Realm and is the current Grand Inquisitor for the Vampiric Council.  BONUS PIC OF THE MONTH:  Entitled the Grand Inquisitor Vs. The Elder Demon, we are given the size difference between the Elder Demons and the vampires. Can the former Grand Inquisitor stand up against the et...

Blog 3 After the 13th

Image
 Greetings and Salutations, my dark lovelies,                 Hello from the hospital bed of love, and I just wanted to keep you up to date on some things. First, I’m currently editing the 3 rd book in the Shadow Dancer series. I’m doing this as the last time I queried, the agent took time out of her busy schedule and told me I rely too heavily on dialogue. So, I’ve been fixing it. I haven’t decided what series to query next as they’re all ready to go. Maybe I’ll make a poll out of it and let you all decide. I’ve also been AIing my characters, and it seems to be going well. Just look at the one with Martin, the shadow killer who joins the Riders group.                 Now that five days have passed, have you read Countdown? Please tell me what you think. Where are the areas that excelled while others did not do so much? See, I ne...

Sonnet Sundays: Lithium

Image
 Take one pill to make me happy Then why do I feel so crappy Wicked thoughts darker than before Slicing my arms up even more Shallow with no one to confide All I think of is suicide Every feeling becomes my fault As the doctor says, it’s just salt Lithium making you stronger They couldn’t be any wronger Left alone in this shitty mood In this personal hell, I brood Thinking of my final letter I’m not getting any better So take the pill just one more time Before I do this heinous crime The doctor ignores what I’ve said They won’t give a shit when I’m dead Lithium doesn’t do a thing Now I can’t hear the angels sing Please, doctor, please change the pill The nightmares are happening still It takes some time is what he sees God won’t he even hear my pleas

Tales from the 13th: Countdown

Image
                                                                              Countdown             I’m sitting on my bunk, alone and frightened. They moved me into this isolated cell yesterday, I guess so my roommate wouldn’t cause a scene. I can hear the clock ticking away the minutes I have left to live. It is a cruel punishment, waiting for death to come. I know I committed my crime. I live with that guilt every day. But do I deserve this? Does my life mean so little that they must end it? Tonight!             Oh, how I wish that I could be running through the grassy fields of my home. Playing with my sister, just as we always did before. But no. I’m stuck here, in this gray-wall...

Kirk's Top 5 Part 1

Image
 Greetings and salutations, everyone, It’s Kirk coming to you from the hospital bed of love, and I thought, maybe it would be nice if I let everyone get to know me a little better. With me finally revealing my face, I don’t have a lot of what I like out there; you don’t know the nut behind the art. So, I figured I’d create a series of my Top Five things I like. So, without further ado, God bless you, here are a couple of my Top Five. If you would like to know more or have a request, please leave a comment. Top Five Candies: 1.       Milky Way: They were my maternal grandmother’s favorite. 2.       Black licorice: I know it’s odd, but I thoroughly enjoy it. 3.       Cadbury chocolate: I'm a huge fan of Cadbury products. Especially with almonds or caramel. 4.       M&M’s: They remind me of my paternal grandparents. Classic Plain and Peanut, mainly, but I also love other options. 5....
