Shady & The Tramp

an original romance horror novel concept

by Shady

A Romance Horror Zomedy: An antisocial loner (Shady) teams up with a well-built female cyborg (The Technologically Randy Armored Mechanical Prostitute- aka T.R.A.M.P.) to save the earth from zombie-aliens. In the process they storm the zombie nest- a haunted house- and have mad passionate sex with a ghost, live on webcam. By the end of the novel they blow up 666 undead ewoks and end up winning the admiration of their universe, living happily ever after.

Think sex lies and videotape meets Shaun Of The Dead.

Hee hee. That was my creation for Pickle's Romance Novel Cheese Challenge on 360 (made using the Plot-O-Matic, albeit a bit tweaked by me, & the Romance Novel Cover Generator)... a much-needed bit of comic relief and fun- thanks, Pickles!! *goofy smile*

In other news... as you all might guess, I am still a bit lost in TurmoilLand. Yes, the title of this post has a double-meaning. I saw a teeny spider in the bathtub today and was like... 'I know just how you feel, spidey'... trying to scrabble up the slick, slippery slopes and hoping nobody turns the water on. Despite the bravado and hope I poured into my last post... my insides are still topsy-turvey. I am, minute-to-minute, a fierce warrior woman... a scared little lamb... an ancient old woman... a flash in the pan... a precious gift... a tightly-closed clam... and starting to sound too damned much like a Dr. Suess ham.

And I absolutely cannot get that Pat Benatar song- 'Invincible'- out of my head... *sings* 'We can’t afford to be innocent... Stand up and face the enemy... It’s a do or die situation... We will be invinciiiiiible'...

I am hanging on and hanging in. I know I've said it before, but the in-F'ing-credible amount of support, comments, and messages I have been (and still am) receiving from my LJ Family are just wonderful. You people rock. I never, ever imagined that I had such support & love, and I thank you all for showing me differently. You are a bunch of amazing human beings.

And a special thanks to DEB on 360, who posted the most beautiful entry dedicated to me, and to all those who have left such lovely comments to me there...

*group hugs to you all*

(whoops I almost typo-ed 'grope hugs to you all'... erm, heh, calling Dr. Freud... come in, Freud...! *slaps forehead*)

I am still in California, but as I mentioned before- in a safe place, and taking care of myself. The weather here has finally warmed, flower blooms are peeking out colorfully all over the place, and I can hear the birdsong outside as I type this. It does my heart good. I will most likely be leaving for home at the end of this week, because my dear beloved Gramma Jo wants to fly out and meet me in Phoenix (pretty much the halfway point of my drive home, and my aunt lives there) so that she can accompany me back on the last part of my journey. This rocks- as I adore my lively, red-headed G Jo, she's one of my bestest friends, the most un-Grandma-like Gramma, and a ton of fun to be with. It will be a nice way to arrive home... I'm calling it our 'Gramma & Louise' (without the convertible) I will definitely keep you all updated.

Next, stay tuned for my entry in another 360 challenge- Scott's Road Trip Challenge- where I will share with you all the tale of how I had a Dorothy Gale moment as I almost got sucked up by a Tennessee tornado. Heh. I know I'm a little behind on these challenges... recent circumstances and all... anyway, this one is right up my (dark & deserted!) alley... (and these 360 challenges are really helping me to have a little fun right now... *smile*)
