Book Title: THE HANDYMAN METHOD
Character Name: Handyman Hank
How would you describe your family or your childhood?
Oh, well now, I’d say I don’t have so much in the way of family or a childhood, such as your kind would see it. I kinda gave birth to myself, best as I can recall.
What was your greatest talent?
I like to think I help men find their special place in the world. I like to take on apprentices, and sometimes that apprenticeship can last a long time … and boy howdy, when I say long, I do mean looooooong.
Significant other?
Womenfolk bring nothing but trouble. They got thoughts coming into their heads a god-fearing fella can’t even reckon with.
Biggest challenge in relationships?
I tend to exhaust people, I guess. Plum tucker ‘em out. Then they tend to linger around like a bad smell. I can’t get rid of ‘em!
Where do you live?
Under you, just maybe!
Do you have any enemies?
Nope. Just friends I haven’t met yet.
How do you feel about the place where you are now? Is there something you are particularly attached to, or particularly repelled by, in this place?
Oh, you could say I’m attached to this place all right. Buried in like a tick, like it or not! Sometimes I do get a yearning to travel the world, make new friends, have adventures, dip my quill in the inkpot of life if you know what I mean, wink-wink, nudge-nudge! But my commitments here on the home front don’t permit that. Someday that may change – if one of these stooges around here wises up and take the bull by the horns – but until that day I’m stuck.
Do you have children, pets, both, or neither?
All of humanity are my pets.
What do you do for a living?
Ooooooh, this n’ that. Got a YouTube channel focused on helping a man tackle life’s little household challenges. How to fix an ornery toilet flapper, a leaky hose spigot, a squeaky stair … all those vexing problems that crop up in a house. Hell, sometimes it gets to feeling like your house is driving you mad, doesn’t it? And some men, well, they’re all thumbs. Men like that need a real man, a man like myself, to gussy them along. It’s a living!
Greatest disappointment?
When a man just doesn’t listen!
Greatest source of joy?
When that man finally gets it!
What do you do to entertain yourself or have fun?
Oh, I’ll have myself a real hoot n’ a holler sometimes. I do enjoy scrapbooking.
What is your greatest personal failing, in your view?
I care too much.
