K.  Ritz
“Mead.
O sweet elixir,
Ye bless the lips and steal the wits.
 ”
K. Ritz, Sheever's Journal, Diary of a Poison Master

Jody    Summers
“What is it, Val? What are you watch . . .” His word trailed off as his
eyes landed on the TV screen. The headline looming at the bottom of
the screen said it all—
“Planet Killer Aimed at Earth”
Wordlessly, Jeremy moved around the couch and plopped down
beside Valerie, whose eyes were glued to the screen. After moments of
watching, he turned to look at her, and her mouth was sagging open. It
was only then he realized his was too. He closed it with an audible click,
returning his attention to the screen. The narrator continued on about
the details of the new discovery until he got to the scientific name for
the asteroid and the new media moniker; Rabbit’s Revenge. Something
clicked in the back of his mind. Some little sensation of recognition
sparked at the name, but for the life of him Jeremy couldn’t place why.”
Jody Summers, The Mayan Legacy

Max Nowaz
“He desperately tried to think of a story to explain his involvement in her sudden appearance, without mentioning the book of magic in his possession.
 ”
Max Nowaz, The Three Witches and the Master

Rebecca Harlem
“Because I am really successful and work on the sets throughout the day. I had sex with a variety of male models. If my spouse accepts all of this, he will be unconcerned if he discovers I cheated on him at some point in the future. That is how much he cares for me. Never in my wildest dreams did I consider defrauding him. When something becomes legal, it is common for people to lose interest in it.”
Rebecca Harlem, The Pink Cadillac

Nancy Omeara
“Killing War

I had no desire to alter the viable occupations of humanity, but I was determined to do something about the level of regional bloodshed.
Education was my weapon of choice, based on a simple hypothesis: that the advance troops of physical carnage are the propaganda and lies that justify murder, making the real battleground that of ideas.
I was determined to address a situation where so many people were ready to kill, driven by the conviction that others are either evil incarnate or will murder them first if they don’t kill them first if they don’t …
Entire nations were buried in twisted truths submerged by hate, covered with vengeance. Voices of remorse, forgiveness, justice and reconciliation were drowned out by the din of screams for death or revenge.
The best defense system against the cycle of violence was something that is impervious to any tool of destruction ever spawned. That something is knowledge.”
Nancy Omeara, The Most Popular President Who Ever Lived [So Far]
