****David Henry Sterry’s TENDERLOIN WARS is #94 in the never-ending series called INSIDE THE EMOTION OF FICTION where the Chris Rice Cooper Blog (CRC) focuses on one specific excerpt from a fiction genre and how that fiction writer wrote that specific excerpt.  All INSIDE THE EMOTION OF FICTION links are at the end of this piece. 

Name of fiction work? And were there other names you considered that you would like to share with us? Tenderloin Wars. Originally The War of the Tenderloin.

What is the date you began writing this piece of fiction and the date when you completely finished the piece of fiction? 2015 start. 2019 finish. I cut 250,000 out of the book after working with an editor who I paid $15,000. Worth every penny.

Where did you do most of your writing for this fiction work?  And please describe in detail.  My office. Also in Tenderloin, Ireland, Amsterdam, Hollywood, Hawaii & on airplanes. 

What were your writing habits while writing this work- did you drink something as you wrote, listen to music, write in pen and paper, directly on laptop; specific time of day? Longhand first, then talked into computer. Early mornings. Late mornings. Early & late afternoons. Early evenings. Never late at night. I usually watch a sporting event while I wrote. I usually drink magic marijuana-infused tea that I make myself. 

What scene/excerpt of the book was the most emotional for you to write? This scene/excerpt can be as short or as long as you prefer.

Boris was a hairy knuckley Russian troll.  His pleasure centers lit up as he took out of a long, thin, rectangular case. 

Svetlana, four feet, eleven inches and 98 pounds of snow-haired, pink-skinned pigtailed Russian kewpie doll, closed her eyes and tried to ignore the alarms shrieking in her head. She didn’t know it was her 14^th birthday.

Finally the device was ready.

“On knees.”  Boris sounded like he was ordering a shot of vodka.

Katya and Ekaterina got on all-fours.

Yulia flopped onto her knees, her torso dead-weight on wet concrete.

Svetlana saw Tatyana paralyzed.  So she gently helped her kneel.

Then she herself assumed the position.

Boris gazed lovingly at the Mother Russia asses, shining like beautiful moons. 

He tried to decide who should be first.  Important to set the right tone. 

He hovered over Tatyana’s terrified, quivering white ass.

She rhythmically palpitated with panicked mini-yelps.

Boris pushed 700° of searing metal into Tatiana’s flesh.

It sizzled.  She screamed a death shriek.

Katya and Yulia flinched and recoiled.

Ekaterina’s eyes were full of vacancy.

Svetlana took a big breath as she tried to sink into deep relaxation.

Boris licked his lips, eyes glistened as he pushed the superheated steel further into flesh, and got a branding boner.  Like this is why he was put on Earth.

The smell of burning skin filled the room.                            

Smoke curled up from Tatyana’s bottom like the devil’s tail.  She howled. 

Boris grunted softly as he admired his handiwork. 

Tatyana’s backside was branded:

$

Ekaterina groaned low.  The only sound anyone ever heard her make. 

$

Yulia’s screech became a coughing fit that left her a shaking fetal ball.

$

Katya vowed not to make a sound.  Then she unleashed a keening yowl.

$

Svetlana flipped the switch in her head and smiled 

Why is this scene/excerpt so emotional for you to write?  And can you describe your own emotional experience of writing this specific scene/excerpt? I cried while writing this. I myself was a sexually exploited, assaulted and abused youth and taught writing workshops with this population later in life & a girl described how this happened to her.  My heart broke open. I wanted to honor her by writing this. 

Were there any deletions from this scene/excerpt that you can share with us? And can you please include a photo of your marked up rough drafts of this excerpt. Originally I wrote the scene much more graphically with many gory details.  The more that stuff.  I took out, and the more interior life of the characters I put in, the more horrific it seemed to get.  Like the human brain turns off when it sees all that abused flesh of the 14-year-old girl.

“Stunning… Sterry's prose fizzes like fireworks. Every page crackles… Very easy and exciting to read--as laconic as Dashiell Hammett, as viscerally hallucinogenic as Hunter S Thompson. Sex, violence, drugs, love, hate, and great writing all within a single wrapper. What more could you possibly ask for?” –The Irish Times
