Clowns - Evil or Funny?


The Magic Medallion (Book Two) of my 'Tween, time-travel series, Cynthia's Attic, has best friends, Cynthia and Gus, spending a lot of time at a 1914 circus. At first glance, they are thrilled to be there. What twelve-year-old wouldn't have fun at a circus?

Ah, but after the cotton candy, the circus acts and mid-way games, they run into an evil, bad-breathed (always has a cigar in his mouth) clown named Blackie who, apparently, missed the "Making People Laugh" session at clown-school. Seems it's his life's work to harrass, stalk and generally make everyone around him, miserable.

From my research, the polls are split about 50/50. You either love clowns or hate them. After The Magic Medallion was released, I ran into a reviewer who was deathly afraid of clowns and wrote a rather negative review about The Magic Medallion. I was given the choice to nix the review or use it, warts and all. I chose the former and have regretted it ever since.

Imagine the debate that could've started over my book! "Clowns-Love 'em or hate 'em."

Okay, so maybe it wouldn't stand up to current debates raging today, such as, does Lindsay Lohan deserve 90 days in jail, but I still regret that decision.

So, where do you stand? Do you love clowns? Do you hate them or are you downright afraid of them? Before making your decision, read The Magic Medallion! I promise you won't be able to stay neutral. Not when it comes to Blackie.


I'm the author of the four-book (soon to be five!) 'Tween time-travel series, Cynthia's Attic.

I can really understand why there would be such mixed reviews on a book such as this. I agree with you in that a person either loves or hate clowns. I personally grew up where clowns were looked at as humorous, but my best friend is deathly afraid of them. She can't even look at one of them without running away or getting all choked up. Regarding the book you were thinking of beginning "Clowns-Love 'em of hate 'em" I definitely agree that it would cause a lot of controversy but not necessarily bad. You could use a Rogarian argument to help both sides in this situation. You could discuss both sides to create a final argument!

BEST ONLINE LOVE SPELL CASTER LOTTERY SPELL CASTER TO GET YOUR EX LOVER, HUSBAND, WIFE, GIRLFRIEND OR BOYFRIEND BACK. ADD HIM UP ON WHATSAPP: +2349066410185
The occurrences in my marriage wasn’t clear, I invested emotionally and I don’t see the positive impacts. I prayed for a husband that could remind me of the good he sees in me, a husband that can make me laugh and also boost my mood.The introduction of spell to my hunt saved my marriage. Dr. gbojie looked at the happenings from a different angle before solving the puzzle. He totally handled the event like the master he is. It was emotional for me seeing us reach beyond the invisible boundaries in our marriage.My husband is in support of this story, so I’m not compromising my integrity because the spell toss on us was a goodwill spell.“Share your story to liberate a relationship” was the word said to me by Dr. Wakina after he successfully completed a unity spell that brought us back after 9 months and 4 days. He found the enduring solution to my negative marital events via his email gbojiespiritualtemple@gmail.com. or whatsapp him +2349066410185 or check out his website :http://gbojiespiritualtemple.website2.me I bless the day I read the story that lead me to Dr. gbojie.
