However I'm a writer, so meet the two good guys, Jake and Hap, who go after the wicked wine adulterater. I hang with imaginary characters most of my writing day. ON'YA.
Sonoma Knight:Goat-Ripper Case, pg.118
Hap sat, enthroned behind his desk, in the center of the room. His desk was clutter-free except for a gold-framed photo of Sonya supine, nude, suggestively draped by a blue silk sheet. On a redwood credenza behind the desk under a wall of south-facing paneled glass sat a tray of more than 20 orchids in individual baskets. Jake was instantly reminded of Tanya’s tattoos.
Hap’s office had plenty of boy-toys: a Bowflex, a Treadmill, a golf swing practice booth, a rowing machine, a padlocked rack of hunting rifles and shotguns. A row of framed photos showed Hap with several world leaders from the last two decades. A Lionel HO-gage electric train track wound across the floor.
In the corner stood an authentic set of knight’s armor in polished black metal, circa 17th century France. Jake noticed the inlaid sign of the lily on the chest and visor, hallmark of the French Plantagenet kings.
Hap volunteered, following Jake’s gaze on the armor: “Sonya wants me to wear it to our wedding. I said, no way. I’d look like a can of spam.” He paused while Jake chuckled.
- due about July 4 - CHEERS!

We like to write and read and muse awhile and smile. My pal Prasad comes to mutter too. Together we turn words into the arc of a rainbow. Insight Lite, you see?
