Hero Interview:

Interview with the hero: Wildcard by Robin Shope

1.Tell us about you.

My name is Ian Serby. The most interesting thing about me is I do not exist. Living in this form defines who I am – or who I am not. Basically, I work undercover for myself. There are top level secrets of intelligence concerning things going on in the government that less than a handful of people know. It makes my existence both unique and dangerous.

2.What do you do for fun?

I enjoy playing with people’s minds. I quickly discover what they want out of life and what they value. Now I can control them and the situation.

3.What do you put off doing because you dread it?

I dread nothing.

4.What are you afraid of most in life?

There is one thing I am afraid of and that is Ivy finding out who I really am. She is the only one I really care about. Once she discovers my identity, she won’t have anything to do with me. Right now I know she is falling for me. For the first time in my life I really care about someone. I guess you could call her my Achilles’ heel. It’s not a good thing.

5.What do you want out of life?

I want our government to be honest in choosing its elected officials and then for those officials to live up to their word. It is my goal to make that happen.

6.What is the most important thing to you?

Ivy.

7.Do you read books?

If so, what is your favorite type of book? I like comic books about heroes. Things turn out the way they are supposed to be. We need more heroes. They are also a quick read. I can devour an entire comic book in no time at all.

8.If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

I would not be vulnerable, not ever. Remember my Achilles heel. And yet, if I changed this, Ivy would leave.

9.Do you have a pet?

If so, what is it and why that pet? I travel so no time for a pet. But if I had one it would be a pound dog.

10.If you could travel back in time, where would you go and why?

I would travel to the time our government was first formed and try to put into the constitution ways that it couldn’t be mess up by the following generations.
