Tell us about the spark of inspiration that eventually grew into The Book of Paul . The initial inspiration for The Book of Paul came when I wrote the first line of the first chapter called Exercises : “He practiced smiling.”  I wanted to explore a character who had been so damaged by childhood trauma that he could no longer feel compassion, joy, affection, and had, accordingly, committed all kinds of horrible acts. I wondered if such a person could ever regain his emotional capacity and be redeemed by love. 2. What was the research process like for this book (which can at times deal with some pre...

Monsters:  An Excerpt from The Book of Paul by Richard Long You tell your children not to be afraid. You tell them everything will be all right. You tell them Mommy and Daddy will always be there. You tell them lies. Paul looked out the filthy window and watched the little girl playing in the filthier street below. Hopscotch. He didn’t think kids played hopscotch anymore. Not in this neighborhood. Hip-hopscotch, maybe. “Hhmph! What do you think about that?” Paul watched the little black girl toss her pebble or cigarette butt or whatever it was to square number five, then expertly hop, hop, hop her way safely...

The Tarot A guest post by Richard Long Laura gave me my first tarot deck. It was a Crowley. A lot of people get creeped out by Crowley decks, much as they would have been creeped out by Crowley, I imagine. He called himself  ‘The Great Beast.’ To me, he seemed more like a big joke. “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law!” Stop it, you’re killing me. *** You just read the opening lines of The Bone King , a prequel to The Book of Paul .  They happen to be true. Laura gave me my first deck. I still have it and use it. In fact, I’ll be using it shortly to provide Skype tarot ...

Diorshow Mascara has been The Backstage Cult Favorite for 10 years! It has an XXL brush that was inspired by makeup artists who used toothbrushes to apply layers of mascara to create the fullest lashes they could for models on the runway. But being backstage doesn't have to be for a runway show; it can be for a concert, a play, a musical, or the runway show this mascara was designed for. Either way, you're going to have lots of costume changes and won't have time to keep redoing or reapplying makeup, which is why this look is perfect. You won't have to keep redoing it. Put it on once and you're set for the entire show.  This makeup look was actually quite simple to do and was very fun. I'm extremely proud of myself for being able to do it, especially the winged eyeliner (I'm not usually good with liquid eyeliner, but this just goes to show you that practice makes perfect!) Makeup used: Diorshow Mascara, Covergirl AquaSmooth (in Ivory), Diamond Cosmet...

Your Inner Eve: Discovering God's Woman Within by The Reverend Dr. Susan Newman explores the woman you're supposed to be. She (Inner Eve-original woman Eve) is inside every woman just waiting for you to let her shine. "She is our best self, our champion, our intuition, our creative nature...When we were young and innocent, Eve was strong." The book talks about how many women have "lost touch" with their inner Eve and so it has affected who they are, their sense of value and worth. Each section ends with an "Inward Reflection" exercise and a "Susanism." My favorite Susanism is "Start where you are, use what you have, and do what you can." It took me a month to read this book. (My time manufacturing machine was down I guess.) But I finally finished and the last section was about making time to just "be." Women are so busy doing for others they don't take care of themselves. That's me all over. That's ...
