FAQ: What are the most visited pages on this website and how many visits do they get?
Several years ago, I wrote an article on how to write different types of magic uses, or rather how I personally write various types of magic users within the context of my Quaraun books. Today that page is one of my top ten most visited articles. It gets 50 to 500 views/reads/hits/visits per day depending on the time of the years and has had over 200k visits total since it was published.
Amphibious Aliens: Debunking The Atwater Family's Alien Abduction Hoax with more then 30MILLION reads since 2007 and The GoldenEagle: Debunking Stephen King's World's Most Haunted Car Hoax with over tenMILLION reads since 2007 still rank as the two most visited articles on my website, but, neither of those are writing related.
Writing Medieval Servants is my most visited writing related article with over 7MILLION reads.
This website was started in 1996 and has 1 to 3 new articles (all written by me, I am the only writer on this site) published almost daily. In 2017 we crossed ten thousand articles published. As of 2023, EACH article gets MINIMUM 10 to 70 reads PER DAY, with the high traffic articles getting 500+ reads per day.
And since December 2019, my website now gets three hundred thousand to 7 million reads per month - well over ONE HUNDRED MILLION PAGE READS PER YEAR, making it not only the single most trafficked site in the State of Maine, but also one of the most visited websites in ALL OF NEW ENGLAND!

~o0o~ Chapter ~o0o~
Mallac pointed to the still sticky pool of dark blood in the middle of the dirt road. "He was a farmer, nothing fancy. Livestock and crops. Not native to the area. A newcomer, moved here about 20 years ago, Never came into town much always busy with his crops and such. His wife's name was Aleaka. They fell on hard times. Livestock got sick, lost most of his herd. Crops failed due to the weather we've had lately. It was just last week I saw them in town, arguing in public, right over there at that market stall. He slapped his wife. Everyone saw it. I was out on patrol tonight, found the body myself. Still warm."
Quaraun wasn't listening. He was hurt and tired and drifting along as though in a dream. It had not yet occurred to him that the candy Gremlin had given him was drugged, so he was still eating it and still seeing and hearing things that no one else was.
ZooLock had been trying to listen to Mallac, but he spied a man in a robe and his attention went to the stranger instead. Soon ZooLock had left the group to approach the man.
"Ah, are you one of those socialist druids?" ZooLock said.
Unicorn wasn't listening to Mallac either. He never was. His hyper mind was picking up on everything else going on around them.
Two men were talking in the street as the group passed.
"Extra stallion?" One man said.
"Yep," the other answered. "Don't know what to do with it. Can't have 2 males with my female in the stable. They'll get to fighting and one of the males will be dead by morning."
"Geld it," said the other man.
"Geld it!" Unicorn exclaimed.
He stopped walking with the rest of the group and glared angrily at the two strangers, then marched up to them, with hell fired angry in every inch of his little five foot one inch tall body.
"How dare ya geld a stallion!" He screamed at the man.
The two men jumped, startled by the Faerie's intrusion.
"I ought to skewer ya!"
"UNICORN!" Quaraun yelled, running to stop him before he killed anyone.
"Come on," Quaraun grabbed the Faeries arm and tried to pull him back.
"They be wanting to geld a stallion!"
"I heard, let's go, it's none of our business..."
"Would ya want to be castrated?"
"You know my thoughts on that."
"I know exactly ya thoughts on that."
"It's just a horse, let's go..."
"JUST A HORSE!" The Phooka shrieked, becoming hysterical. "What the hell am I?!"
"Right now, you're supposed to be a Human, because we're in a Human village."
"They is gonna geld a stallion."
"And what am I supposed to do about it?"
"Stop them!"
Quaraun sighed and turned to the two men who were gawking at the strange pair that had just interrupted their conversation.
"Why are you going to geld a stallion?"
"My mare's in heat and a wild stallion showed up in my stables. We caught the brute but now he's fighting with my stud stallion."
"Would you sell him?"
"To you?" The man chuckled. He'd never seen another man dressed up like a fancy saloon girl before and was trying very hard not to burst out laughing at the fancied up Elf.
"Yes. To me."
"You gonna dance a can-can for the boys?"
Quaraun closed his eyes. He hated dealing with male Humans.
"No."
"Then what are you doing dressed like a frou-frou?"
"This is how I dress. Will you sell me the horse?"

"How much you willing to pay for it?"
"How much are you asking?"
"How bout you put on a show for us?"
Quaraun pulled out his wand.
"How bout I ram my wand up your ass and let it blow your head off?"
The two men jumped back at the sight of the rainbow wand, swirling in oil slick colours and sparking blue lightening from it's tip.
"Are you one of them wizards?"
"I'm a Necromancer, yes."
"A Necromancer? Wearing a pink dress... Are you? You're that... you killed Gibedon... you're the one... you're the one everybody talks about... building up an army of Liches to take over the world..."
"Yes, I'm the Pink Necromancer. I know I'm the one every body around here talks about. I wish they'd all shut up. Now are you gonna sell me that horse or not?"
...
"Ya said 'I wish'," Unicorn pointed out a few minutes later, after the men finally sold Quaraun the horse.
"Did I?"
"Aye, ya did."
"What did I wish for?"
"Everyone around here to shut up."
"Great! Now they'll probably all lose their mouths or something. Why did you make me buy that horse?"
Unicorn stopped and looked up at the horse that was now trotting along with them.
"We saved him from fate worse then death."
"And what are we gonna do with him?"
"Ya could ride him."
"I like walking."
"Then I'll ride him."
"A horse riding on a horse?"
Unicorn shrugged. "No one here knows I is a horse, now does they?"
Quaraun watched Unicorn talking to his new pet horse. He wondered why a horse would want a pet horse, but had long ago learned not to question Unicorn's ways.
Quaraun looked around wondering where ZooLock had gotten off to.
ZooLock was still talking to the robed figure on the other side of the road.
"What happens to widows," ZooLock asked the robed figure. "Are they expected to marry the brother or something?
"Achieving emotional revenge isn't easy," the man said in response. "But it does look good on resumes."
Quaraun turned his attention back to Mallac. The Human soldier was still talking about death and murder and blood and guts and war. All things Quaraun had no interest in or stomach for. It was Mallac's contempt for half-Elves that caught Quaraun's attention though.
"I guess you could call this a curse," Mallac was saying. "As human society really isn't all that comfortable with half-elves, especially if they can't really tell for sure..."
"I need to go to sleep," Quaraun said abruptly.
"What?" It wasn't a question. Clearly Mallac was taken back by the fact that Quaraun had dared defy him on any level.
"I said, I need to go to sleep," Quaraun repeated himself.
"You're helping me solve a murder."
"Why?"
"Because I said so."
"I don't like people who don't like Elves."
"What?"
"You've had nothing good to say about half-Elves."
"You don't know what the half-Elves around here are like."
"No, I don't and I also don't care."
"How can you not care!"
"I'm tired."
"Soilders don't let things like sleep get in their way."
"I'm not a solider..."
"You are working for me."
"I need to rest. Please just let me rest. I'm tired and I hurt."
Mallac begane yelling at the little Elf.
Quaraun looked around for something else to listen to. He saw ZooLock still talking to the robed figure.
"Dragons will get together a couple times a year to mate," the robed person was saying to ZooLock. "The eggs are all laid in a communal cave, a couple dragons hang around said eggs to point the young in the right direction, and then babies pretty much raise themselves."
"Hello!"
"Argh!" Quaraun jumped, startled by the hand on his shoulder. "You!"
GhoulSpawn was standing there.
"Are you following us?"
"I don't think so, why?"
"You keep showing up. Everywhere I go."
"Oh... uhm... I live here."
"In this town?"
"Yeah."
"Oh."
"What are you doing with Mallac?"
"I don't know. I was wondering that myself."
"Are you okay? You don't look so good."
"I'm tire."
"Aren't you a full blooded Elf?"
"I am."
"I thought you lot didn't sleep."
"No. We sleep. Just not as often as others. I only need four or five hours of sleep a week, but I still get tired and need to rest every day. And Mallac has decided I don't need any rest today."
"I'm sorry? I don't understand. What's Mallac go to do with you sleeping?"
"He thinks I need to solve these murdered as he can't."
"Murders?"
"You didn't know about them?"
"No, I... uh... I had heard. I try not to think about it."
Quaraun gazed across the road to ZooLock again.
"Borage Blossoms are a lovely blue hue and taste like cucumber!" the squid headed priest was saying to the robed figure he was still talking too.
"There are so many Demons in town," GhoulSpawn said.
"What?" Quaraun looked up at the half-Elf.
"Those Demons," GhoulSpawn pointed to ZooLock. "There's more and more of them showing up every day."
"Is that a Demon, ZooLock is talking to?"
"Yeah."
"And Demons are not usually in town?"
"No. They only just started showing up."
"And you're obsessed with Demons aren't you?" Quaraun asked the Half-Elf.
"I... uhm..."
"You keep talking about Demons every time we see you, which seems to be quite a lot."
"You!"
Both Elves turned to face Mallac.
"That's the yellow haired half-Elf I was telling you about," Mallac said to Quaraun.
Before Quaraun had a chance to answer, GhoulSpawn ran off.
"Hey!" Mallac called out to a few of the other city guards. "Go get that damned thief."
Without question the others ran off after GhoulSpawn, but the wizard was long gone. He'd ran through a portal and was no longer in the area. The Humans, however, not knowing this spent the next few hours searching the area for the strange yellow haired half-Elf.

About The Novel:
Volume 11: The Summoner of Darkness
Back from the dead, once again with Unicorn in tow, and now with the Thullid priest ZooLock his prisoner shackled in chains, Quaraun is headed back to The Screaming Unicorn Tavern in Old Orchard Beach, but finds himself cursed with endless bad luck, as one thing after another drops out of the sky in his path.
Highwaymen, hellhounds, a turtle as big as a house, fire breathing butterflies, a train station from the 20th century, and a strange glow-in-the-dark demonic wizard with pockets full of sheep, who sits in a red armchair in poppy field in the 1400s reading 1980s spellbooks books by Gary Gaygax.
Quaraun goes head to head against The Gremlin, a time traveling wizard from the future who refuses to allow the Pink Necromancer back into Old Orchard Beach, where since his last visit, an evil Sorcerer named HellBorne has erected a giant cursed lighthouse known as The Black Tower.
ZooLock however has other plans, and while 4 rival wizards tear up the town in a wizard's duel, the Squid Headed Aliens From Neptune's Moon and their armies of JellyFish worshiping cultists arrive in town to preform a ritual that will unleash an Elder Brain Chaos Demon, known as The Sacred Pink JellyFish on the world. Too bad they didn't know she was already in town.

Quaraun is a character I play in Dungeons & Dragons. Like most every other novel in the series, this novel is based off the notes taken from an actual game play session. The Summoner of Darkness is based off the Dungeons & Dragons Campaign: The Murder of the Seven Points by Erik Yaple. If you are a Dungeon Master interested in running a game using this story, the game guide used is this one here --->>> |

Did You Know?
The Summoner of Darkness is the first time The Gremlin, EelKat, Lyxiana, Bela, and Spriggan (all characters from the original 1978 edition of Friends Are Forever, Volume 1 of The Twighlight Manor Series) make appearances in The Quaraun series.
While most of the Quaraun series is written with Quaraun as the only point of view character, EelKat, the primary point of view character of the Twighlight Manor series, alternates with Quaraun as a point of view character in Summoner of Darkness.
The novel tells 2 stories side by side, with all odd numbered chapters telling Quaraun's version of the story in the 1400s, and all even numbered chapters being written as letters from EelKat in the 1980s to her sister Lynxian.
EelKat is a 4th wall meta breaking narrator.
Answering Reader Questions:
GhoulSpawn's Sheep Explained
A staple in every story that features GhoulSpawn, is his glittering technicolour herd of sheep, that gather around him to listen as he reads Dungeon's & Dragons manuals, while sitting in a red armchair, in the middle of some field.
I own the red chair, btw, which you see me sitting in in my BookTube videos while I read. You can see it in this video here:
The 2 most common reader questions asked about GhoulSpawn are:
- What the hell is it with the sheep? They don't serve any plot point and seem to be there for no reason at all. What the hell?
- Does GhoulSpawn have sex with his sheep or not?
The first story to feature Gremlin as a main character was The Wild Years, published in 1987. In this story he is a member of PETA on a mission to shut down Procter & Gamble, after encountering a local sheep farm that supplies lambs for Iams dogfood. In the slaughterhouse on the farm is a conveyor belt, onto which baby lambs are herded, then dropped into a grinder where they are chopped up while still alive.
If you have a stomach strong enough to view such things, you can see BOTH the Proctor & Gamble animal by-product grinder and McDonald's hamburger making grinder in this video here, which shows it being used on baby chickens and baby cows.
(The chicken grinder shown in this video is P&G's Iams dog food processing plant and the cow grinder seen here are Mcdonald's hamburgers be made for you.)
Please be warned, this anti-war, human rights, and animal rights protest video shows EXTREMELY GRAPHIC real life footage of poachers, slaughterhouses, human trafficing, KKK attacks, beheaded ISIS victims, and children killed by landmines.
VIEWER DISCRETION IS STRONGLY ADVISED!
Back to GhoulSpawn, the series' resident uber extreme animal rights activist...
This was a very real farm and a very real machine which I had seen when I was 8 years old, and was the reason I became an animal rights activist and a vegetarian. This aspect of GhoulSpawn's character, his being a vegan animal rights activist with a vendetta against P&G is based off my own life. (If you did not know, I am the founder of the real world Procter & Gamble Boycott and many of the Twighlight Manor books were written specifically for the boycott, thus why a character like The Gremlin took centre stage.)
Readers came to know that if Gremlin was in the story, so too would be references to the evils of Procter & Gamble, Iams dogfood's horrific sheep grinding machine, and mysterious disappearing sheep, along with his random ramblings against McDonald's, Burger King, and other giants in the animal abuse industry.
Unfortunately for GhoulSpawn, he's often rambling on deaf ears, as Quaraun, Unicorn, and others from the 1400s, have no way to comprehend the future atrocities being described by the time traveller. The reactions of people from the 1400s varies from thinking GhoulSpawn is a raving lunatic (thus why he is dubbed "GhoulSpawn the Crazed") to people understanding that he has seen something which has horribly upset him and feeling pity for him, but not really being able to understand exactly what he is talking about.
And then, when he can't get people to listen to him, he starts pulling sheep out of his pockets, not realizing that back in the 1400s he's surrounded by superstitious people who view magic, Wizards, and such things as evil sorcery and people practicing them as witches to be burned and destroyed. As a teenager from the 1970s, GhoulSpawn has as much trouble comprehending the 1400s mind as they have comprehending him.
As no one but GhoulSpawn can get anything out of or even see anything in his pockets, he can safely stuff sheep in his pockets and then innocently stand there while people run around like mad trying to figure out where all the sheep are disappearing to. He'll stuff another sheep in his pockets every time no one is looking and will continue to do this until the entire herd is gone/in his pockets. At which point he'll then jump back in his 1974 AMC Gremlin, fly back to the 1400s and set the sheep loose in green pastures.
GhoulSpawn has a particular affinity for Cotswold sheep, and his habit of stealing/rescuing sheep and taking them to the past, is used as an explanation for why Cotswolds were so very overpopulated in Medieval times, yet today are considered an endangered species.
Over the years it became a running gag in the series for other characters to bully and tease Gremlin claiming he had a sex fetish for sheep. However, GhoulSpawn does not have sex with his sheep and often seen deeply upset over the accusation. Because most people in the 1400s do not believe GhoulSpawn is a time traveller from the future, they say that he made up his story of rescuing sheep from "the gambler" to cover up habits of beasillity. Quaraun and Unicorn remain two of the only people to believe GhoulSpawn's story as he has taken them to the future and they have seen the things he speaks of for themselves.
The reason for GhoulSpawn's obsession with sheep, is a secret he rarely reveals and is known only to his closet friends: while the series often bills him as a half-Elf, leaving people to assume in also half-Human, is is rather instead half-Demon, specifically he is an Uruisg, which is a Scottish Sheep Demon, a man with the upper body of a man and the lower body of a Cotswold sheep.
In keeping with the actual Irish, Welsh, and Scottish folklore about Uruisg, GhoulSpawn is somewhat of a trickster and causes chaos to ensure whenever he is around. Also like the actual folklore he is a notorious thief and pickpocket, compulsively unable to control his urge to simply pick up and take every shiny object he sees.
Who Is GhoulSpawn?
This is the first time GhoulSpawn appears using the name GhoulSpawn. In previous volumes he was using the name Glinta instead.
In the Twighlight Manor series he is known as The Gremlin.
Quaraun's teenaged lover GhoulSpawn is a "natural born" Sorcerer. He is a half-Elf/half Demon.
GhoulSpawn's father was an evil Demon who commanded an army of Ghouls. Because of this, he was known simply as "The Ghoul".
GhoulSpawn's mother was a Sun Elf whom had fallen in love with The Ghoul, but was forbidden by her family to have contact with him. She in turn ran away with her Demon lover, thus causing a war between Elves and Demons.
The Sun Elves tell a story of how their Princess was kidnapped and raped by the Ghoul, thus she gave birth to the Spawn of the Ghoul. Though his mother named him Glinta, she died while he was still very young, and his Elven kin, took to calling him GhoulSpawn as a way to brand him not one of them.
GhoulSpawn is an interdimensional time traveller, because he is unable to remain in any one time, place or dimension long, because he was born in the Hell Dimension, which exists outside of the realm of time and space as we know it. The Ghoul tried to escape the Sun Elves by going to the distant future (1974) and leaving his half-Elf son and the boy's mother there to live among a band of LSD addicted hippie Humans whom drove a 1974 AMC Gremlin.
The Sun-Elves eventually found their missing she-Elf and brought her back to the 1400s where she belonged, but she refused to leave her half-Demon son behind.
After his mother's death, GhoulSpawn was made a servant to his High Elf step-father and full blooded Elf step siblings, all of whom abused him and treated him like a slave. He grew up constantly being told he, because he was only a half-Elf, was unloved and unwanted and should have been killed at birth, resulting in the very low self esteem he has.
Neither Demons nor half-Elves are considered welcomed members of society, both being forced to live in small tribal groups on the outskirts of civilization. Both are often stoned to death or hung if they dare set foot in a city.
GhoulSpawn being both a Demon and a half-Elf is doubly mistreated by the majority of the world's population. He takes to travelling with Quaraun because Quaraun simply accepts GhoulSpawn as he is and is not bothered by being seen in the company of either a Demon or a half-Elf.
There are several instances when people try to bully GhoulSpawn and Quaraun (a high ranking full-blooded aristocratic High Elf) is quick to stand up for him, protecting and defending the half-Elf. Quaraun is often classified by other Elves as "insane" simply because he is willing to be friends with a half-Elf.
GhoulSpawn has a speech impediment which lessens when he is relaxed and grows worse the more nervous or frightened he becomes.
Around calm laid back characters like Quaraun, GhoulSpawn speaks without difficulty. However around domineering, headstrong, or bullying characters such as Unicorn or HellBorne, GhoulSpawn develops a stutter, making it difficult for him the get to the end of a sentence.
Because he is a Demon, GhoulSpawn was born with natural magical abilities, making him a rare "natural born wizard" or sorcerer.
GhoulSpawn is typical of a Sorcerer in the Quaraun series, in that he has Demon blood, was thus born with a Demon's natural ability to cast magic on some levels, has taking to self-teaching himself how to control the magic powers he was born with, is outcast from society because of his link to Demons, and is generally not well thought of, even though he is not in any way evil, and is in fact the only part of the cast who could be considered anything close to being a Hero.
Being a time traveller, there are times when Quaraun encounteres both GhoulSpawn and his future counterpart Gremlin in the same novel.
This is the first novel in the series to feature multiple versions of GhoulSpawn in a single novel.
GhoulSpawn remains one of the most hated and most loved characters in the series. People who dislike him, absolutely despise him and have gone so far as to request I remove his character from the series entirely. While people who love him, often cite him as their favourite character and often request I add him into more stories more often.
For the people who don't like him, I'm sorry, but he remains one of my favourite characters of the series and he's not going anywhere.
For the people who want to see more of him: there are plans to make changes to several stories in the series to include him in the future editions, more often.
