As friends of mine and friends of sarum's, I need a semi-morbid favor.

I have a writing project I am working on and need a jump start to get rid of some writer's block.

What would you write if you were writing sarum's biography?

Somewhere there is videotape of the Yiddishe Santa who channeled Mel Brooks and a California surfer dude.

First I have to find it.

I would list out chronological bullet points of accomplishments. Have each one as a chapter header then have the chapter at least mention that in passing but try to convey how much fun he made the journey between this bullet point and the last or next. My stories would mostly have references to Lodge, cons and maybe some faire thrown in. I would want to have family, chosen family and friend anecdotes. Hell, I could even see amusing embellished anecdotes from people who would claim they did nto like him. Just to show what a great guy he was.

Thank you.

I am more looking for anecdotes.

Okies!

Then the event that tisana mentioned conveys a lot of that joy of life that I felt from sarum.

An embellished elaboration looking backwards with rose tinted spectacles:

So it was the Sunday of arisia 2004. I was wandering about grabbing conversation snippetts and saying 'good-bye's' as the con wound down. In my meandering I ran into my hottie co-worker dee_cee who I had convinced to come to the con for the first time this year. While chatting with her my sister tisana came along. They two of them were becoming fast friends and she

I would talk about that time at Arisia where he taught erik_j_meyer and I to crack a whip, and dee_cee was looking on, amused, as he and I got a bit more competitive about it. And DC and I made sarum blush by sniffing the whip.

That's what I always think of when I think of him.

At the first salem pirate faire he held a in prompto whip class that had every woman wet with desire to try,,,the ladies from crystal moon referred to him as whip boy from that moment on

OT
