Chasing the Dragon: Is, yes, still underway. I haven't given up, just gotten stuck in the bog abit of late. But as a peace offering I present to you a piece of artwork that I created when I was first coming up with the concept of this story all those years ago (oi, yes, years. Spooky.). It's on a dead and mostly forgotten deviant art account featuring some spectacularly bad work that I whimper about in my sleep (and some that I still find amusing. Hehe, ginga..). But, anywho, Linkage. :) http://two-days-in-february.deviantart.com/art/Chasing-the-Dragon-27238380
Hello, my name is Dave. I have a passion for lycra and extreme frizbee and one day, I hope that I will be able to pursue my passion for extreme sports, form-fitting materials and writing into an entirely new genre of sports journalism.
.. Or at least, that's what this profile would say if my name was Dave, or in fact, I was a man. As it is most people call me Nikki, not sure why but you're almost 100 percent welcome to join them. Almost..
I'm a second year art-student who deals with The Issues. Writing takes place between the harsh demands that dealing with The Issues has on my time which can mean a certain amount of.. inactivity for unbearably long stretches of time. I know.. It's rad.
I have a warped sense of humor (see Dave.) and a fascination for really bad reality tv shows the likes of which only daytime television can handle. I like to believe that this comes from a wish to study the condition of my fellow man in order to be able to better represent them through my artwork - the reality is that I like to laugh at the trashiness of it all and get ridiculously emotionally attached at the same time. My current guilty pleasures range between a reality tv show about bitchy Lawyers duking it out to find out who will become the top lawyer at The Law Firm (Olivier lost! Cue the pathetic whimpering..) and guys who make metal replicas of animals and have them fight each other in epic battles of until now unheard of bestiality. I never knew the half-life I was living until I saw this show. I know.. it's rad.
"Madre de Dios! Es el Pollo Diablo!"
If you know nothing about New Zealand (I promise not to mention those movies, ya know, those ones that were shot here.) there are two things you should investigate: Flight of the Conchords and Shihad. Your life will never be the same.
Feel free to contact me if your name is Dave and you want in on my groundbreaking ideas about sports journalism. My lycra and I await your missive.. Oh, and if the rest of you wanted to you know, say a few words about my writing or whatnot, just, ah, sing out. Yeah.
"Can I call you 'Bob'?"
"You may call me 'Murray'! I am a powerful demonic force! I am the harbinger of your doom! And the forces of darkness will applaud me as I stride through the Gates of Hell - carrying your head on a pike!"
"'Stride'?"
"All right then, roll! Roll through the Gates of Hell! Must you take the fun out of everything?"
PS: I am currently taking into consideration the urge to change pen-names. This is an urge that had occured many times since that fateful day in February 2002 when, naive young lassie I was (uneducated in the ways of extreme sports journalism and lycra) I typed in that unassuming penname that has become my prison. Therefore I warn you now, Cathy-Bloom1 may, under careful evaluation, soon become Cathy-Bloom2.. Or something similar, it's a big step and I may need time to adjust.Outside input and counselling may be required.
