Therefore women chanted a lullaby to protect their infants from Lilith who became a demon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">This is just one source of original evilness that is going to relentlessly attack and destroy an innocent female child and subsequently the world she is a part of.\u00a0 Don&#8217;t be dismayed there is also a good queen in the story, although it must be a tragedy, it will end on a positive note.\u00a0 Queen Maggith is the lead evil character, a name I derived from a combination of Maggot and Lilith.\u00a0 Unfortunately, a friend of mine from Corpus Christi wanted to be in one of my books, so I made her the good queen Tamylla, and then her friend Maggie also wanted to be in one.\u00a0 Well Maggie, sorry, but you drew the last straw.\u00a0 Please don&#8217;t hate me forever. Maggith is going to be terrible, every woman on earth is going to hate her.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">For those of you ladies who may not know these vices here are the seven deadly sins:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Pride &#8211; considered the highest sin of all.<\/li>\n<li>Lust &#8211; a definite theme in this story<\/li>\n<li>Greed<\/li>\n<li>Envy &#8211; what can I say!<\/li>\n<li>Gluttony<\/li>\n<li>Sloth<\/li>\n<li>Wrath &#8211; hell hath no fury like a woman scorned (one of my chief themes in this story)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>So, place on your thinking tiara or crown, and tell me what characteristics you think would make the most awesome evil queen ever.\u00a0 What causes women to be petty?\u00a0 Thanks for being a good sport too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a call, like the lighting of a beacon, for the response of as many women as possible.\u00a0 I am an author and a man, a manly man.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t have hidden feminine traits.\u00a0 Therefore, you might consider me an old fashioned Rhett Butler type.\u00a0 I write about heroes and heroines as I would [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,5,34,44],"tags":[75,76,348,429,430,432,550,759,772,880,963,1094,1095,1178],"class_list":{"0":"post-2446","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-all-things-allivar","7":"category-allivar-characters","8":"category-publishing","9":"category-writing","10":"tag-adam-and-eve","11":"tag-adam-and-lilith","12":"tag-demon","13":"tag-evil","14":"tag-evil-queens","15":"tag-ew-greenlee","16":"tag-good","17":"tag-lilith","18":"tag-lullaby","19":"tag-mythology","20":"tag-petty-women","21":"tag-seven-deadly-sins","22":"tag-seven-virtues","23":"tag-succubus","24":"czr-hentry"},"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/allivarcreative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2446","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/allivarcreative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/allivarcreative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/allivarcreative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/allivarcreative.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2446"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/allivarcreative.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2446\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/allivarcreative.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2446"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/allivarcreative.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2446"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/allivarcreative.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2446"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
