You have to play this game like somebody just hit your mother with a two-by-four - Dan Birdwell


My last post included a picture of Josh Holloway who is the inspiration for the hero of my current work-in-progress Love By Design.


So in honor of the Super Bowl I thought I'd post a picture of Kevin Nash, the inspiration for the hero of Playing For Keeps. Though Nash is a wrestler by trade, my hero Ryan Terell is a football player.


Here is a snippet from Playing For Keeps...


After wiping away the steam on the mirror with a sweep of his hand, he took a long hard look at himself. He rubbed his fingers across the stubble on his chin. God, he needed a shave. Or maybe he needed a new face. Man, I’m getting old. Where was the young rookie that used to gaze back at him? Not that he’d trade places with him. That kid didn’t know shit.

  1. I don't know this guy...but yeah, another good character inspiration, I'd say! Love the excerpt, too ;)
