Introduction

This is for Sasha Desideri's "A Very Vocal Beauty Pageant โ€” Unofficial Challenge", which you can check out here:

I'm calling this Prince Charming II because I had already written this one:

Prince Charming II

I am approaching my seventieth year, and have never felt I am someone's first choice for anything, but I do try to be there for people, and usually do things to please myself and, if I can, help others.

I was the first person that I know to post in every Vocal community, including this one in BLUSH:

While I am not a popular author on Vocal, I am very successful, and tomorrow I was hoping to clock 88,888 reads on Vocal, but I have a feeling I will miss it.

As a teenager and even in later years, I am the one that girls confided in, but I was seldom one they wanted to go out with. I have always been a shoulder to cry on and there when needed.

Playing guitar and singing was always a plus, though, when The Bok were being touted by the bassist (the hippie Mark Lester) as being signed to a record label, lots of people just stopped talking to me!!

Since being on Vocal, I have self-published fifteen books, and my friend Aly wrote this lovely review of my latest one

So I feel very loved by my friends and audience.

Some people have said I am handsome, but they are unaware of the number of broken mirrors I've left behind, and you know what I look like because of the number of selfies that I post in my stories and on Facebook and Instagram.

I try to look after myself and walk at least seven thousand steps a day, and I intend to be a real centurion.

If you want to hear what I have to say, here is a bit about my creative methodology:

Conclusion

This has been a sort of self-critique.

Thank you so much for reading.

I don't feel handsome, but I am generally a nice guy.
