Club Lothario, what is that?

Club Lothario, what is that? Ahhh … Club Lothario is one of my favorite inventions for Mona’s culture. With so many women, I decided that men needed somewhere they could go to hang out apart from women but could still interact with them as desired. Think of Club Lothario as a mix between a men’s…

Imagination leads to creativity

Vivid Imagination I read this quote on imagination the other day on social media. Though I’m sure I don’t have it exact, word for word, I know that this is the sentiment. “I don’t subscribe to the stuff I write about. I just have a vivid imagination.†This statement rings clearly in my psyche. The…

In this segment, I cover the cultural effects which resulted. It should be noted that while the plague was halted, it was not eradicated. Over centuries, people made many attempts to…

The ‘Purge Plague’ (Part 1), What brought it about?

The Purge Plague, can you elaborate on that? The Purge Plague is a speculation that I came up with to justify the culture of Mona’s world. However, it is a speculation that I firmly believe is possible, if not likely, to occur. Most of all, it is The Purge Plague that causes the near extinction…

Do you really know him?

Do you really know him? I have asked myself that question many of times when I was dating, engaged, hearing about my daughter’s’ date(s) and more recently playing a jurist from my couch as I watch Dateline and 48 hours! This topic came back to the forefront of my mind as I read Richard Verry’s…
