Romantic Advice from the folks of Any How Town UPDATED

This is Denny Stinson, some folks call him Death's Head behind his back. Now there is no nice way to say this, Denny lost his lips in the war and it's made him a little crazy. He's a good kid, he's killed more people for this country than anybody and for that we owe him our gratitude, and TWO drinks, no more or we have to go fetch his brother Wash from over at the Church, either that or we have to call the Baldy's and Denny HATES the Baldy's - so we don't call'em.He knows some good jokes, funny ones, real funny.

  MARCH,19 2012 Update
I have no idea why this reposted up here at the top of the blog, but I'll use this glitch to explain what I've been doing. When I'm taking breaks from writing the first book in the series I'm also going back through 175 posts and taking out all the curse words. This series is for folks of all ages (maybe eight and upwards) and I don't want this blog to be the cause of any uncomfortable utterings from their children.
It has been funny to go through the early posts and really get a feeling as to how different the tone was when Any How Town was going to be a graphic novel and aimed at an audience of fifteen and older. The current story is told with the children as the main characters who are ten and eleven so even the character descriptions as relayed by other citizens in Any How Town read as much more mature .
Hope that clears things up.

Trouble.


Ah, Quatro Aucassin , the only member of the large Aucassin Clan who bothered to learn English. The Aucassin's are remarkable and fearless fishermen who have a camp on the outskirts of town by Hobson Bayside and are said to have dove deep down into the Shrubanks Shelf to recover treasure. Most people say that they're just a load of poaters (scavengers) but I think they're an honourable enough bunch. Even Quatro says there's no hard feelings for the scar that Denny gave him.
as relayed by Deputy Blackfish
No one is more famous than the Gomez, if you've spent a night in jail here you've spent it with him. Lance Head military prison won't take him, no jail in the Mallory States will have him, so he gets his own cell down town. All he does is read and lift weights and eat stew, he's become such a celebrity that he's more like a psychiatrist offering all kinds of wisdom that he's picked up from his books. Just don't get too close, he's killed 200 people that we know of, but he has 253 tears tattooed on his body.

This is Jadis Stout, my boss, he runs the most popular of the bars in Any How Town, the Monday Hatred, where I work, he loves music and "the Hate" (as it's called for short) has the best bands in the city. Rockaway Fanny and the Five Dollar Lighter are my favourite but he says he likes Donald Rudder and the 28 Trolley best, did I mention he only has one ear.

Twenty Fossil Duncan


Twenty Fossil Duncan lives on the outskirts of town, was an adventurer of some kind back in his younger days, claims he was an archaeologist who fought the Gargans for ancient treasure.He doesn't bother anybody, he tells a good story and that's enough for me on the slow days.
