Start for Possible New Novel

HARALD THE AXE MURDERER
­
Harald, the axe murderer, harbored a dark secret. No, it wasn’t that he was an introvert, although he did find the world a little peoply. However Harald, being a rather focused and proactive sort did all he could to bring that annoyance to manageable proportions.
­
No, I don’t yet know his dark secret. I only learned of his existence about a half hour ago while making pasta for dinner. I can tell you, though, that I used penne pasta, Italian seasoning, garlic-pepper salt, Fontina cheese, Roma tomatoes, and onion.
­
Perhaps I will eventually tell you about the workings of Harald’s mind in similar detail. But as of now, no. We’ve just met and we haven’t learned to trust each other. Also, he wields an axe expertly and I can place a fire breathing dragon in the bathroom when he gets up at 3 am to pee.
­
And now, on to his adventures, we don’t want to keep him waiting.

Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary – Today’s Word: Lodrunk

How many times has this happened to you? You’re a teetotaling introvert who got invited to to the local Petit Point and Tapestry’s weekly meeting. You decide to attend as you think this will be a rather sedate affair with everyone absorbed in their current project. You arrive. You say hello. Then cases and cases of whiskey arrive. Soon people are taking off their shirts and punching others in their big, stupid noses. One of them grabs you buy the collar to tell you how Sweden got screwed at the Treaty of Wespthalia in 1649. And you know the treaty was signed in 1649. But you don’t care anymore.

You feel your soul wilt to a mere wisp. You want to merge your molecules into that wall to avoid any more human contact. You need to go home. You yearn to recline in your chair, watch Lassie, and sip on a cooling lemonade. But if you up and leave, people will hate you, call you a snob, a lutefisk lover. If only there were a way to quickly leave party hell without becoming a social pariah.

This party poser leads us to

Marked Safe From the Peoply World

The struggle is real. The outside world teems with feral people.
