About The Wolf’s Moon
Extinct beast comes to life, stalks Ozarks town…….
In “The Wolf’s Moon,” Patrick Jones writes a suspense thriller where one man must hunt down a mysterious wolf that preys upon the people of a small town and creates a spellbinding tale of an ancient animal that haunts the foothill towns of Missouri’s Ozark Mountains. An unknown group of scientists has genetically engineered a Dire Wolf into the present day. Allegedly extinct, the ferocious beast preys upon the innocent people of Maple Hills.

He’s Just A Guy…
http://thescaryguy.com/book-7-days-and-7-nights/The other day, my wife introduced me to a very interesting man. His name is “The Scary Guy.”
Yeah, that’s right. He said he legally changed his name.
After viewing the first video, I was hooked.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Scary_GuyPhysically, he is imposing. He’s big and I don’t think that there is a square inch of his body that isn’t tattooed. Yep, arms, hands, head and face are all covered.
If one saw him on the street, they would think he was, at the very least, a biker but probably someone much worse.
They’d be wrong…very wrong.
Patrick Jones, author
I am scarier than he is and I think I’m a nice guy. I try to be nice because I want to be nice. It is hard and I am not a nice guy all the time.
Try as you might, I don’t think you could piss him off.
Listen to him on one of his videos.
He goes to schools and speaks to students about being nice and not being judgmental about a person’s physical appearance.
What Scary is telling them is not everyone looks like a model. Not everyone can be physically fit.
One thing that everyone has is feelings. Sometimes words can hurt worse than a punch to the gut.
I have found throughout the years that people want to be liked. They want to know that their lives mean something.
We all want that.
http://www.watfordobserver.co.uk /news/4744426.Scary_Guy_visits_Bushey/ Watford Observer: Photograph of the Author Adam Binnie, Web content editor / Tuesday 17 November 2009 / News“The Scary Guy” shows these young men and women that they can be nice. More than that, they can be individuals. They do not have to be in “The In Crowd.” People can look at others and see another person from the inside.
It costs nothing to be kind.
Will his words be heard?
Will his actions be seen?
Will he be remembered?
Maybe, just maybe…

Happy Halloween featured by Charles Yallowitz!!

These creatures have been ‘donated’ by Jo Robinson:
Vikpistxlds
Named by someone whose laptop only had ‘i’ for vowel letters, the Vikpistxlds is one of the most curious creatures to come out of Wulgaz. It has a five year lifespan and changes both form and behavior on its birthday. It begins as a small flower that can survive as long as one root remains in the dirt. So there are several creatures that will feed off what one can guess is the Vikpistxlds’ head until the second stage. This is where it becomes mobile as a fist-sized beetle that rolls around in a ball. It has a row of spines to protect it from predators as well as a noxious spray. The third stage is the size of a bush and happens after a month of slumber. The body is leathery and the Vikpistxlds resemble an antlered monitor lizard. …
