What do my characters eat?
That is a good question. Well they certainly all have an appetite but food is not what they are really after.
They have a deeper hunger, one that drives them to do the unthinkable, the impossible… what they must to survive.
This kind of hunger gnaws at your belly, a constant reminder of something you crave that is just out of reach.
Yes within each of us, there is hunger, but is this hunger ever satiated with mere food?
That is the case with the Gargoyles in my book…they hunger as well but it is a different kind of hunger, one that fuels a need for vengeance, spurred by a centuries old betrayal. The hunger they hold inside torments them, shapes them into the creatures that they have become, and inevitably drives them to do the unimaginable to satisfy that very hunger.
If I were a Gargoyle, what would I eat? Interestingly enough I am sure that very same question has been asked for centuries. Unfortunately, it would seem there is still no accurate answer. But if I were a Gargoyle, awakened for a short amount of time, I guess I would eat whatever I could get my hands on. And in my Gargoyles' cases, since they are residing/awakening in New England they would probably enjoy the local fare, such as lobster rolls, clam chowder, or maybe even a Fluffernutters sandwich before they turned back to stone.
That’s what I would be doing. ;)
