Fieke Wolf * NYC (2014) with 2018 foreword




Foreword


When I created the character FIEKE WOLF in 2010, it was to me, at the time, a fitting idealistic conception which represented a unique sociopath. Within her version of a moral standing, as it is Fieke's view of reality that lies between two worlds, her world and the one that we reside in. Which, in my opinion, reflects the identification and characteristics of people within society that have been shaped a certain way whether that be of a natural and/or culture occurrence. A sociopath is not a psychopath. An important definition. However, she is a killer. As it is that gray area, which is pressed upon within popular culture, that being the antihero or vigilante. It is that person, male or female who exists inside this aperture between these two worlds, which collide in dramatic events. Therefor it became the groundwork for my fascination of this particular theme that I based my 2010 self titled novel around, over eight years ago. To have her return in 2014 as a short story in my collection of short-stories "When Time Ends, The Seasons Begin".

Developing layers onto its varied complexity set the background of characters and history that all resonate within present time. The future does not exist, as in Fieke's world, there is only time that manifests, which is viewed in a now perspective. Paradoxically, it is the past from all of its erosion that also shapes time. In turn developing a character that is tuned purely into survival. As death lurks ever closer. After four years FIEKE WOLF will return in 2018 as a short story.

What is presented here is the 2014 short story republished as a stand alone format.
