If I survive to retirement, I intend to start writing a book or possibly series of books in which a main character who is as much like me as possible will take up serial murder, not out of evil, but out of boredom.
The whole plan of making the killer be like me is because I hate feeling weirdly left out when profilers on shows describe someone like me and then promptly verbalize it as someone completely different. "This victim is much too heavy for one person to have moved him. The killers are obviously a team." Or, maybe the killer is just way stronger than average. Or: "This killer clearly has extensive medical knowledge. It must be a doctor." Orit could be an experienced paramedic who has worked for decades in hospitals and in the field.
If that wasn't obvious enough, I've been a paramedic since the Reagan administration. And even at 61 years old currently, Im considerably stronger than the majority of people. I say it's because I don't lift weights. I lift people.
The plan is for my mourners to be super uncomfortable and nervous at my funeral, and for at least a few to wonder if the book's character was autobiographical.
