“I’m the eighth deadly sin, Willful Insanity! Pride isn’t the root of all sin, because that’s me! All of you demons are weak-a**, pale reflections of me, because humans would have to be crazy to sin!”
--The Hunter's inner demon as she faced the invading legions of Hell, in my novel Demon for President!
On a rainy day, you might see young skyfish flicker in and out of existence, just at the edge of your vision. Though you will never see an adult one: humans don't believe and our inability to accept would erase them from reality. So, they hide where our eyes will never reach.
Ashen Blades centers on the life of a half-demon girl with a serious bone to pick with demon-kind, because they murdered her parents. Read her story as she protects the human race, just like a shepherd defending their flock from a pack of ravening wolves.
When a snake demon in an expensive, tailored suit takes an irreverent stab at American Presidential politics, the Hunter takes a literal a stab at him, to save the nation!
However, with both parties back a demon, does it matter which one wins?
Careful, or we might get a Demon for President!
Uncle Sam said, “I want you!”
Uncle Sam wanted men for the Vietnam War.
We rarely get the things we ask for.
Uncle Sam got a small half-demon witch girl with a talent for demon extermination.
In exchange, she got a chance to follow the trail of an old enemy.
The Witch King. By Martha Wells.
You are a demon prince that inhabits mortal bodies in a strange land full of mortals and non- mortals who have access to various powers, which they mostly only use to acquire more mundane powers of social control.

THE GUNSLINGER ON THE BEACH (1982)
Acrylic on Illustration Board - 28" x 18"
The winter months of 1980-81 were tough. My wife and I became parents with the arrival of our daughter in November, and I needn't tell anyone who has children what that means in terms of lifestyle changes...like lack of sleep. 1/4
"Sugar and spice and everything nice?" Perhaps the standard, off-the-shelf girl may be made from such things, but this half-demon girl?
She isn't sweet, she isn't nice and you really shouldn't call her spicy, because she's got a magic hat full of weapons, a bad attitude and a mischievous sense of humor.
