Outcast Hero

For today’s blog I am pulling up something from a year ago January. See my Facebook comment to the picture above:

This is great! My daughter, Carly, is having her 15th birthday party today, and she asked me to make a Marlon Cake for her birthday. “Marlon?” I asked. Turns out he is a character from “Outcast Hero” an independent animated movie currently in production by British writer, cartoonist and animator Gemma Bright. So I made the below cake off a web picture, and my kids posted it on their DeviantArt account. When she saw it she made several nice comments about the cake, and then drew a comic strip about it that she put on her own DeviantArt account.

I ask the kids what sort of cake they want every year for their birthday, and then try to make it, if it is within my skill.  But what made it special this year was the way the author responded.  Gave my daughter such excitement to have a favorite writer/author notice it.

Which reminds me, the movie will hopefully be coming out sometime soon.  After all this lead in about it, I’m still looking forward to seeing it.

That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.
