"Evil Themes"



"In the old days, villains had moustaches and kicked the dog. Audiences are smarter today. They don't want their villain to be thrown at them with green limelight on his face. They want an ordinary human being with failings." -Alfred Hitchcock

Ah, Little Butterfly. My novel-in-progress. Since I was the squabbly age of 12-years-old, I've developed this story and its characters little by little. It's been stewing inside me all this time because I never knew how I really wanted to display it. I tried a comic, animation, and even contemplated a movie script, choosing actors and everything. (I still don't think that's a bad idea... :P) Finally, I concluded the best (and easiest) way to bring this story to life is to write it down old school style: Book.

BUT, I can't use only one form of artistry. Consequently, I've composed theme songs for some of my main characters. Here are two of those songs, both dealing with "antagonistic" characters: Shenn (main villain) and Ekibosha (Shenn's plunky minion).

As a side note, I'm more in love with Shenn than the "love interest" I created for my heroine. That's not really supposed to happen. Maybe I should work on character development a little more...

I've created the main theme song as well, but I still want to tinker with it some more before presenting it to the public. For now, enjoy!
