The Night I Went Soft

I shared an awkward interview with the public on Tuesday.
We did the interview, I cleaned it up, then posted.
The rough edges were sanded off because that’s what Field Guide entries do. They’re for information, even if that information is…conditional.
Not that I lied. That’s not what I do.
This was about…safety.
My safety, if I’m being blunt.
Here’s the part I sanded off.
Buddy Keisler ‘drafts’ his own life while he’s still living it. No, that’s not a metaphor. I’ve gone out of my way to confirm this impression from witnesses, including someone who was standing three feet from him in that specific warehouse.
It’s…oh, hell, I call it spooky.
The guy narrates himself in third person while the bodies are still warm! What’s worse, is somewhere in the last week, he sat down and turned that warehouse into an actual manuscript page.
Don’t believe me?
I got a copy.
Don’t look at me like that, you know I’m connected.
Here’s the thing about publishers: if they can use words to make a buck, whether they create them or leak them to get publicity, they’ll do it.
Bookworm’s people leak like a sieve when there’s a good story attached.
…and this is a very good story.
Since you paid to be here,…you get the page Buddy didn’t write for print.
Just…burn it when you’re done, okay?

Bookworm counted the guards twice before he moved.
…because a professional always counts twice.
