Late this afternoon I was tinkering around with ideas on how best to come up with criminal histories for the outlaws in my story. I really didn’t want to take time away from the story itself by having to tediously create individual rap sheets for each of them. So, in order to save time, I looked for a fictional rap sheet generator online. I found a fake police report generator. I brought it up and it said three of my villains were accused of shoplifting a box of Magnum brand condoms from the corner drug store. Somehow, I do not see the outlaws in my tale of being guilty of such a mundane and petty crime. I see them being considerably more bloodthirsty and depraved than that. Yep, I’m convinced now that I’m going to have to do this the old-fashioned way, one at a time. My Dad always said that if you want the job done right, you have to do it yourself.
