Better Off Ted
Big Bang Theory
Dead Like Me
Pushing Daisies (I love Lee Pace, so that’s a plus. But even though I really loved the first episodes, I didn’t like it nearly as much later on.)
I’m currently watching “Better Off Ted” and just laughing and laughing. It’s so ridiculously funny, everything made so extravagantly large that even the most ridiculous of things seems plausible.
So, this little thing I’ve been working on, “Ersatz,” will be available soon for $0.99 purchase. It’s a short piece, though it’s wormed its way into my black little heart.
I’m looking to give away 10 free epub copies, so if anyone’s interested, just leave a comment and I’ll email you back.
ERSATZ
by Sol Crafter
“So, what’s it like being in an ersatz homosexual relationship?”
“What?” His head whipped around so he could stare at Julie in surprise.
Cast of characters (just the mains, baby): John–our MC. Comes across to others as the strong silent type, but since we’re following this story with him, we get more of a view of the inner workings of his mind. Charlie–can be somewhat goofy, he’s a good guy and John’s happy to call him his best friend and roommate. Neidelmeyer–the friend that’s always willing to mooch off the people around him. Julie–the rather intrusive girlfriend of one of their friends.
One innocent question, and the lives of two friends are completely changed forever.
It snowed here today, not enough to be serious, but it’s supposed to be the start of more. Currently waiting for the children to come home and watching a cartoon they’re not allowed to see.
I’ve been working on my fairy tales and dreaming up some new uses for old things. It’s been going pretty good so far and I’ve been having a lot of fun.
