Ow, that sounds...difficult. I'm with you - there's no way in hell I'd do something like that, but all credit to anyone who's prepared to push their limits.

And v. good inspiration for a horror story! Authentic detail, or what!

It was . . . intense, to say the least. I've got some good material for future novels but not quite yet sure with regards to the application. We'll see.

So how does Thomas feel now?

Interesting to see him push it from a spiritual perspective. Would he do it again?

Oh, his back is pretty sore but it's healing up nicely.

I hooked a friend once. Or, rather, helped put the hooks in so he could pull a 4x$ truck across a parking lot (this was back in 2003). At the time, I was tempted to try it. But, I knew at the time, if I did so, it wouldn't be for entertainment. It would be inspired by Neil Gaimen's American Gods.

Honestly, that pain scares the hell outta' me. Which is weird, considering I get tattoos like some people sleep.

LOL! Thomas is trying to convince me to put my money where my mouth is and let Lli put a hook in me jus' for shits and giggles.

Erm.

No.

My personal development does not, at this present moment, require me to stick 3.5mm diameter hooks into my skin.

Thank you.

Ya, I'm scared, too.
