Dare to Imagine

When it comes to art and fiction, what should be forbidden? What themes and topics should never be presented?

I write fiction and illustrate the covers. The themes and topics become words and pictures. Most of them are tame… but some of them are extreme.

Nothing I write or render is meant to shock or offend anyone. I take no pleasure in displeasing other people. I am sincere, however. My sincerity may shock or offend.

I am an artist. I refuse to compromise my art. I shall write and render what I am inspired to write or render.

People tell me they control their dreams. I would never do such a thing. There is nothing to learn from a controlled dream. I instead watch and listen. I write and illustrate the same way, and for the same reason.

My novel The Goddess of Self is a survival horror about a little girl threatened by monsters who command armies of little girls. The villains want to eat her… or worse. The child heroine kills baddies, mostly the other little girls.

My Black Death series of books is about two black women who serial kill young white women… for the fun of it. The killers are not only the protagonists, but heroines. They save the city from villains who command armies of white girls.

My pending novel Sorcerer of the Realm is about a world where the Confederacy won the War Between the States and became the Empire of the Golden Circle. The Confederates join forces with the Nazis, assuring white supremacy.

The best art is sexy and the best fiction is violent. Neither should be vulgar, of course. It is not art if not artfully written and rendered.

Children as the Heroes and Villains

Our favorite fiction has always been horror and action-adventure. They are quite often both. The stories are usually about people killing people. If the victims are sympathetic, the genre is horror. If they are the antagonists, it is action-adventure. If both, it is both.

When children are the heroes and or the villains it is typically in something meant for children. Even if meant to be taken seriously, it is only by the targeted demographic. Adults are expected to find it silly. It is not taken seriously by the adults who make it.

Sometimes, though rarely, children are the heroes and or villains in fiction written for adults. These children kill. As heroes, they slay monsters or monstrous humans. As villains, they murder people.

There are popular examples of children as heroes…

Anakin Skywalker (The Phantom Menace 1999), Harry Potter (Harry Potter books and movies), Atreyu (The NeverEnding Story 1984) and Charlie McGee (Firestarter 1984).

There are popular examples of children as villains…

Damien Thorn (The Omen 1976), Rhoda Kenneth (The Bad Seed 1956), Henry Evans (The Good Son 1993), Brandon Bryer (Brightburn 2019) and the Gatlin children (Children of the Corn 1984).

I write fiction, action-adventure and horror specifically. My heroes and villains are usually adults… but not always.

It is easy to make a child the hero. He is “good” and we are comfortable with good children. His victims are “bad” and we dislike bad people. If they are monsters, we are entirely comfortable with them being slain.

It is difficult to make a child the villain. We are uncomfortable with the idea of a child being evil. We rationalize that he is ignorant of his crimes, thus, innocent. If we are denied this rationalization, if we are forced to acknowledge that he knows what he is doing… and enjoys doing it… we are especially horrified. It is as if innocence itself has turned against us.

Babes in the Woods

Sexual fantasies are typically nasty thoughts about other people. Mine are ideas for stories. I sublimate my thoughts and feelings into creative endeavors. I turn them into art and fiction.

I wrote a novella about two sisters and their cute friend. The sisters are big and black. Their friend is small and white… and a redhead.

The sisters have a hobby: They murder young white women. They do not torture their victims. They simply strangle them or break their necks or knock their heads together. They strip the bodies and donate the clothes to charity.

Three sisters are the villains. They are wicked witches. They lure the redhead into a mysterious fog and kidnap her. They mean to sacrifice her on the night of a blood moon to revive their own youth.

The two black women venture into the fog to rescue their friend. They slaughter their way through droves of enchanted white girls to do so. These girls are uniformed in a white T-shirt with a red handprint on the bosom. They wear nothing else, not even shoes. Their weapon is a dildo that shoots glowing bolts.

The premise and particulars are utterly ridiculous. The story is erotica and action-adventure. Weird, yes, but such is the quality of dreams.
