In sorting out my feelings and beliefs there is, however, one piece of moral ground of which I am absolutely certain: if I were to be murdered I would not want my murderer executed. I would not want my death avenged. Especially by government--which can't be trusted to control its own bureaucrats or collect taxes equitably or fill a pothole, much less decide which of its citizens to kill.

Kim K is probably the last person I expected to see talking about Ivan Cantu, but you know what? Good for her, glad to have her on board (and that she heard about him from Sister Helen is awesome). Maybe now something can be done to stop his execution

With Heggie’s Dead Man Walking, inside of me are two wolves.

The First wolf: wow, what a chilling and heavy and nuanced piece about the extremities of redemption and empathy and spirituality regarding capital punishment that when done right presents it neutrally and showing Sister Helen Prejean as a woman of deep humanity in a difficult position and plus with the Met Opera’s production we get to see Queen Joyce Di Donato shine again.

The Other Wolf:

A spicy, second chance, dark romance with an unhealthy splash of vigilante justice and organized crime.

"Saving Scarlett" by C.A. Varian weaves a tale of love and redemption, where an unlikely hero emerges from the shadows to rescue the woman he never expected to save.

In the vibrant heart of New Orleans, Scarlett Prejean's life, filled with beauty and ambition, is overshadowed by her abusive husband, Joshua. As the proud owner of a cozy bookstore, she seeks solace from the relentless cruelty of her marriage. However, fate takes a dark turn when Joshua hires Bane, an assassin bound by a relentless code, to end Scarlett's life tragically. What Joshua doesn't anticipate is the profound twist that awaits.

When Bane encounters the battered Scarlett, an overwhelming urge to protect her defies his assigned mission. Despite her scars from years of torment, Scarlett ends up under the care of her would-be executioner. In the intertwining of their lives, they grapple with an undeniable attraction, their backgrounds clashing starkly. Scarlett wrestles with her feelings for a man labeled as a killer, yet she glimpses the gentleness hidden beneath Bane's tough exterior.

Their love story unfolds against a backdrop of treacherous secrets and betrayals, guided by the brilliant hacker, Phantom, unraveling the intricate threads binding Scarlett's destiny to the criminal underworld. Their journey is a tumultuous blend of passion, danger, love, and vengeance. The burning question persists: will Bane and Scarlett find the love they desperately crave, or will those seeking their downfall ultimately triumph?
