The Seven Dirty Words I Used in My Draft
The other day at work I found someone had usurped my computer, and that they'd left the word "douchbagery" typed into the google search function in the corner. I'm not quite sure what they found. Maybe a dictionary definition. Maybe a picture of themselves using my computer for their nefarious Google deeds. Maybe a sound bite from my neighbors being loud and obnoxious and holding their pot-smoking bongo drumming dance/seance thing on their floor/my ceiling.
Anyway, I think I use too many foul words in my drafts of Necromancer Syndrome and its sequel. Seriously, Damien drops a ridiculous amount of f-bombs, s-bombs, dirty-bombs, and er...actual bombs, the kind that go BOOM. I'll have to go back in and take a lot of them out. Honestly, I'm not afraid of using a lot of @#$%, but there is a point where enough is enough. I mean, I'm not writing a Tarantino film here. I'm not trying to use all Seven Dirty Words, though I'm sure I got pretty close.
*looks at draft*
Oh, hell.
