And I’ve got three more weeks before school starts, and two
more weeks until teachers report. That means I should have just enough time to
proof my ARC before it’s back to the grindstone, a teacher’s schedule.
Which reminds me that my book KILLER OF KILLERS, is not for
kids. I can’t even tell them about it. As for teachers, maybe two know about it. And one of them just
retired. But I suppose once it is published, I might be more forthcoming about
it to my fellow teachers. But I can’t stop thinking about my teacher friend who
expected it to be a book for kids. She was surprised when I told her it wasn’t
for kids.
Now, THE VASE isn’t for kids either, but at least that one
kids can read. Not so for KILLER OF KILLERS. Too much violence. Too much
killing. Too much blood, and too much R rated stuff. Don’t forget, there’s
romance in this story. Now I keep the sex behind closed doors for the most
part. But still it can’t shake an R rating. And that means not for kids.
But I didn’t write if for kids. It’s for adults. And I wrote
it for adults. I wrote a book that I would like to read. And I don’t like to
read anything smutty. I don’t like foul words. In fact, foul words disgust me.
I can’t stand reading books with vulgar prose. Of course, I can understand bad
words in dialogue. You can expect a story has characters who don’t talk all proper-like. But when the
author uses smut in his/her narration, that, to me, is classless.
So KOK doesn’t have that kind of stuff, but still, it’s not
for kids. If you are an adult and you like martial arts stories, action,
romance, and not smut, then KILLER OF KILLERS is for you and you’ve only got
four more weeks to wait. And it’ll be worth it, too.
