I really cannot say what the genesis was, to be honest. This was two years or so after I moved from Alaska to the East Coast and was likely a single guy (still am) looking for a bit of a sensual thrill (still am). It was around the time I left Facebook, so I may have seen one of the models posts there and the rest is a sensual feast of years!

Do you have any nicknames? If yes, what are they?

The only one that comes to mind is ‘Bradimus Maximus Didimus’, or simply Bradimus for short, but only accepted from a select group of people.

What is your favourite colour?

Green, the color of magic…

(If you know, you know)

What are your five most used emojis?

😁🥵😍🖖🤷♂️

Are you a morning person or a night person?

Morning, definitely; been going to my job at 5:30AM for almost two decades, now, and sleeping in on the weekends is maybe to 6AM. Seems to allow me to get a lot done during the day.

What’s your zodiac sign, & do you resonate with it?

Capricorn. ♑️ The common traits are said to be ‘determination, strength, ambition, and dependability; however, they're also nurturing, creative, sensitive, and fiercely protective and loyal to the ones they love’. I would say these are very close to what make who I am today, though there is a streak of laziness I fight against, sometimes winning, sometimes daydreaming.

If you could have any superpower, what would it be?

Sublime and sure rational deduction reasoning so as to make even Sherlock Holmes blanch!

If you could only choose one, would you rather fly with a unicorn or swim with a mermaid?

Well, there is no denying that flying would be an incredible adventure, despite the windburn, but I would go for the red-headed Zaramaid, not only a joy and wonderful distraction to swim with, but to discover sunken cities and achiest shipwrecks would satisfy my curiosity. From time to time, though the distraction of the Zaramaid would never become tiresome!

Are you a dog or cat person, and do you have pets?

I am definitely a dog person, but have lived with cats for almost 40 years because the first apartment I had on my own would not allow dogs, but would allow cats, and I was able to adopt a well-behaved (I know!) older cat I called ‘Pumpkin’ due to his coloring and time of year I saved him from the Final Jab. Since then, I have never had either the funds, the time or opportunity come together to allow the companionship of a canine companion, more’s the pity.

If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would you choose?

Difficult, as I love to cook and have been experimenting with curry dishes of late…🤔 I suppose I will have to go with the weakness of loving ice cream, though.

What are three things you can't live without?

Curiosity, creativity and books!

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?

Europe, in large; Germany/Austria in small. That’s where family has mostly come from and it would be incredible to meet family still there, though our families have not met in two generations. That and castle research!

What's the most adventurous thing you've done?

One of three things, though number three has to be It: 1. Directing a Renaissance Fair group of Gypsies and Tinkers for almost 2 decades and the growth over those years. 2. Although it can be said that I have been writing for many, many years, finally deciding to write a book (that has already spawned a sequel and two or three other ideas for novels and possibly a series). 3. Welding a bar and tow ball to my 2010 Camry, loading up an 10x5 trailer with what I could fit on it, two cats in their carry-alls in the back seat, a cooler in the footwell of the passenger seat, a trunk full of clothes and driving across county from Alaska, through Canada and over the Rocky Mountains and through to North Carolina to new job and life.

Share something else that few people know!

Three broken hearts delivered by unfaithful women who I was deeply in love with has left me very reluctant to trust a new love. I am up front about this with any potential love interest, but none have been patient enough for that trust to come. I do not blame them, as it is my own issue, but just please be careful of ripping out anyone’s heart, folks; it is a horrible, heinous thing to do.

Who would you like to take this questionnaire next?

Unfortunately, anyone I would love to tag has either already been so tagged or has participated. Except for @starry, should she become well enough to return to us!
