Art Direction Progress

The top one is the color scheme that I am trying to go with. It gives a mysterious/spyish vibe to it. The bottom one is a picture taken from the James Bond film Casino Royale. This one is the type of action that I would like to convey in my story.

A Slow Day in the Life of a Spy

John Q. woke up in a hotel room next to the girl he seduced the night before. John awoke before she did, got dressed, grabbed his gun from under the pillow and proceeded down to the lobby. He walked outside and gave the valet his ticket. The valet ran off to fetch his car and John reached into the inner left breast pocket and pulled out his silver cigarette case, and pulled one out. Click, the sound of a zippo flicking open to light the cigarette dangling from his lips. The valet returned with his jet black 1961 Ford Thunderbird. John walked around to the driver’s side and handed the valet a brand new $100 bill, then proceeded to get in his car and drive away. While driving down the streets of Paris a monitor slides out from the dashboard and greets him with his target of the day. The target? The Duke of Montreuil Manuel François, who lives just out side Paris in his multimillion-dollar mansion. John Q. parks a quarter mile away from the Duke’s house and goes up through the woods towards the mansion. As he comes up on the mansion there are guards outside making their rounds. John Q. sneaks up on one and snaps his neck, then proceeds to take his radio so that he can listen to the guards talk and be able to know if there is any suspicion that an unwanted guest is lurking through the mansion. John Q. makes his way to the Dukes bedroom while the Duke is still asleep, he sits in the shadowy corner of the room and attaches the silencer to his pistol and waits for the Duke to rise from his slumber. After thirty-eight minutes the duke arises from his bed startled to see John Q. waiting for him. “You’ve come to kill me. Haven’t you,” says the Duke. “That would be the obvious answer, wouldn’t it,” says John Q. in a witty voice. Then the Duke makes a move for his gun, which is on the nightstand next to his bed but John Q. makes his shot before the Duke makes it half way to his gun. The only sound that it makes is the sound of the bullet casing hitting the solid oak floor. John Q. then leaves the, Duke now lying in a pool of blood, on his bed and leaves. Just as John Q. makes it back to his hotel room the girl from the night before is just waking up and John Q. greets her with breakfast.

The End

Obituary

John Quarternickle

John Quarternickle died in Manchester, Tennessee on June 13, 2008 after having a heart attack from being scared to death by his friends. A microchip was found later in his forearm, this microchip was a tracking device. This was so the government that he was working for, which will remain anonymous, could keep track on him. The reasons for his appearance in Manchester and the details of his mission are still unknown.

John was born on April 21, 1983 in Nashville, Tennessee. John enrolled in the army so he could follow in his father’s footsteps, but John’s future was different than that of his dad’s. After two years John had become the best soldier the army had ever seen. His government took notice of this and offered him a position on their secrete branch of the military and sent him out on secrete missions in order to obtain information, but most often it was to assassinate a person in high authority that was a threat to the government.

John was preceded in death by his parents Jack and Mary Quarternickle. He had no wife or children and there are no known surviving relatives.

The viewing will be held at Hagstrom Mortuary on Tuesday from 4p.m. to 8p.m. Funeral services will be on Wednesday starting at 11a.m. John will be buried at the Memorial Creek Cemetery following the funeral services on Wednesday.
