It was two years ago tonight when the world
I lived in collapsed around me. My second wife,
Amy Copeland,
died in my arms, and there was nothing I could do to stop it. The
whole world lost an angel that angry January night.
But the universe itself GAINED an angel, in her purest, most
magnificent form. As her higher self, she lives on, miraculous in
everything she does, and helping me and everyone else she had
contact with, guiding us as the guardian angel she is.
In my own life, I am richer than I ever thought I could be
because, in having Amy as my wife, I had more than I ever imagined
I could have. Through her love, I became fuller in spirit than I
could ever have achieved alone. And I am now able to provide a
life filled with overwhelming love to
Linda Symak
because I learned how to love from Amy.
In the ultimate pay-it-forward way, I’m now living the lessons
that Amy taught me. And, if the universe wills it, I will keep Amy
alive through the simplest of all actions … by the accomplishment
of loving more fully than I ever knew I could.
Thank you, Amy, my guardian angel, for having made my life worth
living, and for providing me with the tools to ensure that I am
able to leave the world better off than it was when I first got
here, just like you did.
Amy is never gone, because she lives on in the minds of those she
touched so deeply in her time as a living angel on Earth.
Please visit the memorial website for the angel known as Amy
Copeland.
A fraudulent Facebook account was started
last night (January 7, 2012) using my name and a profile picture
of me and my fiancé,
Linda Symak.
To whoever it is, I promise you these things ... First, I will
spend day and night investigating to find out who you
are. Second,
I WILL get that profile shut down. Third, I WILL SUE YOU. Fourth,
I WILL prosecute you for identity theft.
This is not the first time this has happened and I'm sure it won't
be the last. But every time it has ever happened in the past, I
have found who it is, had profiles shut down, and have discovered
locations of who's done it. So, this time, I PROMISE I WILL find
out who it is, and I SWEAR I WILL publish your personal
information all over the internet, including on my own personal
website, for the entire world to see.
Here is the fake profile. Everyone on this person's friends list,
you are advised to have NO contact with this person whatsoever. I
don't want any collateral damage in this, but whoever aids in this
fake profile will also be prosecuted.

A
NOTE FROM CHARLES: "This story contains thirteen clues hidden
inside of it. Two of the clues are glaring, staring right out at
the reader from the first word to the last letter. Others hint at
some of my favorite athletes and accomplishments made in their
careers. My challenge to you is to spot all thirteen of them."
Murphy's Law seems

Sometimes they harvest soy beans. And sometimes ... they hunt.
In
a world gone mad, nearly snuffed out by global thermonuclear
warfare, the law of the land must be maintained at all costs.
Penalties for those who break the law must be severe and
merciless.
Charles has been busy re-introducing himself to his art, the craft
that he'd spent decades in during his much of his life but which
he'd gotten away from in the last few years. He's been cartooning
again (almost all of it has been KISS related lately), preparing
for a major art project coming in the near future.
Memories can turn a happy life into a hellish one. I know that
now. But the miracles that come on as a result can turn life right
back around on itself again and make everything more perfect than
it's ever been. I know that, too. This is the story of how both
happened to me. Greatest happiness came from greatest tragedy.

TORMENT, A NEW SHORT STORY BY CHARLES COPELAND
Friday, July 8,
2011
Read the latest
piece of fiction by Charles Copeland. Torment ... the story of the
inner workings of the writer's mind, and the creations living in
it.
I
want to take a formal moment here to thank each and every one of you
for standing beside me over the last 18 months. Many of you were
right there while I struggled through the loss of my wife, Amy, and
the darkest times of my life which followed. You stood by me through
all the anguish, the torment, the blinding emotional pain that
brought me to my knees for the first time in my life, and the
hopeless, aimless time that found me lost in my own despair with no
chance for escape. Losing Amy was the single worst thing that has
ever happened to me. It made me realize just how lost I was without
her. They say you never realize what you have until it's gone, but I
know that not to be true. I know damn good and well that I realized
what I had EVEN BEFORE it was gone. I had months to say goodbye to
Amy, but I was unaware that those last months of her life were all
there were. Neither of us knew she was in such bad shape that she
would be gone in a matter of months. But the night she died, in that
longest walk I ever took when I left the hospital and decided not to
take a cab home, choosing instead to stomp through the bitter,
enraged cold all the way home, I made my way through a mixture of
shock and darkness, as if most of me had died with Amy just an hour
earlier. And I believed it had. Those next several months were the
worst I could ever have imagined.
I
never expected to make it out of 2010 alive. And most of me didn't
even care.
I
could spend hours right here and now telling you all about the
myriad of things that happened to me in those months that followed,
months of misery and torment, situations I found myself in where I
confronted my own mortality, and times when death crept up on me and
I stood there almost welcoming it. But this isn't an update to tell
you how bad my life was. What I will say here is that the countless
times in which I nearly died between January and November of 2010
leave me looking back in awe now. There's no way I should be alive
to write about that point in life where it seemed as if I was being
stalked by violent forms of death. Yet here I am.
Many
of you know about the accident I had the day after Thanksgiving last
year and that I had actually lost all life functions that night in
the operating room. For 6 minutes, I was technically dead. I guess
you could say I lived up to my expectations of not living through
2010. The surgeon and her assistants revived me, and ... here I am
now. In the coming months I will make every attempt to tell you all
about those 6 minutes. For now, though, I can't seem to articulate
what happened in that time because there aren't words for it.
Having said all of that, if you've read my profile pages at Facebook
and MySpace, you'll already know all about how I met Linda. You'll
know that she is the key to why I'm still alive now. You'll know
that I believe with everything in me that she and I were meant to be
together. But you'll never know just how crazy in love with her I
am. And I say you'll never know it because I'll also never know it.
There is no measurement for how in love with her I am. She is the
end-all, be-all of human existence for me. She is what I'm still
here for. She is "my purpose" ... to be here to love her with
everything in me, to make damn sure she knows that no one else will
ever experience the amount of love I have for her, to ensure that
she lives every fairytale she could ever imagine and so much more.
Many of you have already taken to Linda as a friend as well, and I
can never thank you enough for that. She is the greatest human being
alive. I'm not just saying that, either. It's true. If I live to be
200,000 years old, I could never hope to be HALF the human being she
is. She has renewed my entire life. She has made everything fun
again. She has caused me to see the beauty in everything. And in all
of this she has opened my life up enough that, for the first time in
what felt like forever, I'm happy again. I love her more than I can
ever hope to say.
It
is with those thoughts in mind that I thank each and every one of
you for standing there to be my own personal fortress walls,
insulating me from my own personal hell. Without many of you, that
version of a living hell I experienced would have been the end of
me. I owe many of you my life.
You're just gonna have to try to pry it out of Linda's grasp,
though, because I already gave it entirely to her.
:)
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I promise to repay you
all with the most gripping, meanest, most gut-ripping horror stories
you'll ever experience. And along the way, you'll notice the return
of that mode of Charles Copeland communication through fiction that
says, "Stand in my way if you must, but I'll hit the gas and
splatter you all over the road ... this is horror fiction, and it's
gonna hit you with the force of countless supernovae explosions".
Be
well. And always remember to live as if today's your last day, laugh
so hard that you can't breathe, and love as if the existence of the
universe depends on it. Everything outside of that is ... useless
details.

Okay, so I haven't completely deleted my MySpace profile. I was
going to, but
MySpace is apparently in such big
trouble that it seems on the verge of shutting down entirely.
Newscorp has announced it is seeking a buyer for the entire website,
and that if none is found the website will be shut down. So, I'll
leave my profile there until that happens. I'm still on
Facebook, though I don't like it

Howdy! Okay, I know it's been almost a whole calendar year since I
updated the website at all, but the grieving period since losing Amy
was a lot more than I knew how to handle. I literally walked away
from life for a right good while there just to deal with the
grieving process in full. Today marks exactly 16 months since the
world lost Amy, and I have made incredible strides in my own life
since then, all of which Amy would want me to proudly boast about.
So, over the next few months, I will.
I've
fallen head over heals in love with the most beautiful, most
incredible woman in the world. Her name is Linda Symak and she is my
whole world. She is everything I live for, she is the reason for
every breath I take, and she is the puzzle piece that completes my
entire life. And WAIT until I tell you all how we met and the
circumstances that led us to conclude that, yes, angels DO exist ...
they've been guiding our way through life, and I KNOW WITHOUT DOUBT
that they will always continue this.
Anyhow, for now, I'll leave it right there. But in the future when
you visit CHARLESCOPELAND.COM, be advised ...
The
love shared between Linda and me is about to explode
SUPERNOVA-STYLE!!!
And
ALL of it will be showcased right here. Linda deserves it and it
will be beyond fun for me to do so.
CHARLES COPELAND
REFLECTS ON 6 MONTHS WITHOUT AMY
Thursday, May 3, 2010
by Charles Copeland
Posted by Jim Gordon
We're coming up on the
six-month observance of Amy's death and I know I should be getting
"better" in terms of the grieving process, and in some ways I am, but I
can tell you all here and now that as the days inch closer to May 12th I
will almost assuredly begin more and more to "zone out". I seem to be hit
harder during the anniversary markings each month than other times, and
this next one is a pretty big one.
Six months used to feel like
the blink of an eye for me. The days would skip past as if clicking by in
a slide show carousel and at the end of six months I'd have trouble
recalling everything that had happened in that time because it just went
by too quickly. Now, though, six months may as well be forever. I spend my
days thinking about Amy and my nights dreaming about her. Each 24 hour
period feels as if it has stretched out to SEVERAL days ... and that's a
thought that angers me at times.
Over the last eighteen months
of Amy's life, she and I had begun wishing for a way to slow time down. We
wanted not just to spend a lot of our time together but to spend it in
ways that would make it feel as if we were truly making the most out of
every last second. We used to joke about going to eBay to see if anyone
there had figured out a way to sell blocks of time they didn't expect to
use. Spare time is a rare commodity. I'd have bought up every bit of it I
could get, if ever there had been sales of that kind. But technology
doesn't work that way, dammit, and we knew that. Still, we wanted to enjoy
our time together, and we wanted a lot more of it.
Sometimes I think Amy knew
her time was almost up. If she did I'm sure it was only a subconscious
knowing, otherwise she would have let me know it. And if she had ever told
me her time was dwindling, I can honestly tell you that there wouldn't
even have been a shadow left of me online ... I would have disappeared
altogether without any explanation just to spend every second with Amy.
And hindsight allows me, now, to have all kinds of "I wish" moments, times
in which I find myself wishing I had done this or that ... just little
things to let Amy know how incredible she was and how vital she was to me
and how deeply in love with her I was and had always been. There was never
any shortage of that, though. She knew all of that stuff because I told
her as often as I could, and she told me right back. So both of us knew. I
just wish I'd said it all SO MUCH MORE.
Life is filled with moments
like those, where I wish I had done more. And six months has done nothing
to dull those thoughts. I know they will still be razor sharp even if I
live to be 120 years-old, and that's fine with me. Those "I wish" moments,
as painful as they are, keep me close to Amy. And that's something I
wouldn't change for all the money in the world.
Six months. It may as well be
forever.
I do miss her so.

ANNOUNCES NEW WEBMASTER FOR CHARLESCOPELAND.COM
Thursday, May
27, 2010
Posted by Jim Gordon
"I
know it's been a long time since I offered any news. That's because
I've been completely devastated by losing Amy. In these past five
months I've come to know the meaning of true pain and suffering. My
only fear in life ... happened. I lost the one person in life who
meant more to me than ANYTHING. Amy was everything to me, and I have
no idea how I'm supposed to go on breathing without her. I'll do it,
of course, because that's what she would want me to do. I just don't
know how.
Part
of that means having to give up on some of the things I had been
meaning to do on my own. I was originally going to take over all
operational duties for Amy's website and radio station,
Fractured Mirror Radio, but there's
absolutely no way that's going to happen. I'm far too involved with
the grieving process to handle such a workload like running an
entire radio station. I've also had to give up on the idea of being
my own webmaster. Again, I just don't have time or patience for it.
So I've hired another buddy of mine to take care of it for me. His
name is James Gordon and he's a computer wizard. I've been friends
with Jim for more than half my life and I'd trust him with a billion
dollars. So Jim is the new webmaster for CHARLESCOPELAND.COM.
Please make him feel welcome. If you have any questions, comments or
suggestions for him or the website, feel free to email Jim at

We're all deeply saddened at the loss of someone as full of life as
was Amy Copeland. I knew her for a little more than three years and
I can tell you that if you never had the pleasure of meeting her,
you have no idea how much you missed. She was truly an amazing
woman. My own wife and I offer our most sincere condolences to Amy's
beloved family and to Charles as well.
Having spoken to Charles no less than six times each day since Amy's
passing on January 12, I can tell you that he is devastated. I've
known him for a long, long time and have never known him to be so
completely crushed. It's no wonder though, considering that he and
Amy were closer than any other couple I've ever known. It hurts my
heart to know he's so lost without her, and my wife and I know well
that there is nothing we can do to lessen the pain he feels. All I
can say is that if you've ever been a friend to Charles Copeland, he
really needs all the friends and support he can get.
I
have decided to donate 100% of my salary as webmaster at
CharlesCopeland.com to the
Amy Copeland Memorial Fund for the
rest of 2010 and beyond. I know it won't bring her back, but I don't
feel like I can accept any kind of salary for the foreseeable
future. I want all of that money to go to helping memorialize one of
the greatest human beings ever. And, quite honestly, I've always
felt that Charles paid me much more to be his webmaster than what
the job should have paid. And my conscience won't allow me to accept
too much money for a job I already love, while he is suffering with
so much emotional pain and turmoil.
Also, Charles has decided to donate 100% of all of his future novel
sales to the
Amy Copeland Memorial Fund. For the
remainder of his writing career, every penny you spend on his books
will go directly to building the
Amy Copeland Memorial. So please,
from the bottom of my heart, please go right from here to the
purchasing page at CharlesCopeland.com (CLICK

Copeland Memorial.
Rest
in peace, dear Amy. You will be forever missed.

Okay, here's the deal. Charles Copeland used to maintain four
MySpace profiles (three for novel characters). One of them was quite
obviously phished. Charles and his wife discovered this and decided
to permanently delete ALL FOUR profiles.
"I
won't stand for that," Charles says. "You'd think a site as huge and
well-financed and backed as MySpace would get a handle on phishing
of accounts once and for all, but no ... it continues. I had my main
profile for more than three damn years, problems all the while, and
I just don't have time or patience for that kind of crap. It's a
friggin' waste and it pisses me off. So I'm DONE WITH IT!"

MALLEUS
ILLUMINATUS UPDATE: THE ILLUMINATI HAMMER IS EMERGING
Friday, November
27, 2009
Posted by Anthony Harmon
It's
almost the end of November again, and Charles Copeland has produced
yet another novel in which he RIPS the Illuminati, the oncoming New
World Order, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Trilateral
Commission, the United Nations, the state of Israel, the British
empire, the Vatican, the Black Pope, the new age, Transhumanism,
U.N. Agenda 21, and other topics related to the global government
being set up before our eyes.
The new novel, as you
already know if you've been keeping up with the news here at
CHARLESCOPELAND.COM, is entitled MALLEUS ILLUMINATUS: THE
ILLUMINATI HAMMER. It is Charles' fifth full length novel,
and because I've read the unedited version I can tell you all here
and now that, as far as ripping the Illuminati goes, this one is
Charles' masterpiece. The savage murder of 4,256 Illuminati members
(note the significance of the total there ... a nod to the number of
hits compiled by Pete Rose in his career) speaks to the endurance of
the ability of our protagonist, U.S. Army Major General Edison
Adams, to carry out a single act of vengeance against the entire
power structure of the Ancient Order of the Bavarian Illuminati.
This action, more of a personal war against the Illuminati by a lone
avenger, causes the remaining Illuminati members to speed up their
plans for global domination. What they do in speeding up their plans
can only be called global genocide. Billions of people are
exterminated. Society itself fractures, and with it the fate of the
entire human family is thrown into imminent peril.
Will humanity survive?
Edison Adams knows. And
he has the tools with which mankind can free itself forever from
Illuminati slavery.
For the first time in
the history of planet Earth, mankind's future lies within its own
grasp.
Where this future is
headed belongs to you.
Look for updates
including whole chapters of Malleus to be posted right
here in the coming weeks, followed by the full-scale release of the
novel that is sure to rock the power structure of the New World
Order to its very core.
MALLEUS
ILLUMINATUS: THE ILLUMINATI HAMMER ... When those who make the
laws refuse to live by them, they must be held accountable by
methods outside the law.
As
you celebrate this Thanksgiving Day, please take a moment to make
your loved ones know exactly how much they mean to you. The most
important thing you can ever have is someone to love. Be thankful
for all you have.

numbers in the forthcoming novel ("forty-eight" will be replaced by
48, etc.) and all words which should be joined will be so after
editing.
The following interview takes place at Boundary Peak Island Federal
Research Facility, 20 miles off the coast of Massachusetts. The
intended time frame is summer of 2010.
I
spoke to Charles on the phone this morning. It seems the arrival of
Hurricane Ida has provided him with enough cabin fever time to
adjust some of the plot lines involving several characters in the
book, as well as leaving him free to write until his heart's
contentment. Cabin fever time has always proven to be the most
productive for Charles (he seems to write twice as much, twice as
fast, as if his life depends on it), and this time is sure to be no
different. As shown in the widget below, Charles is nearing the
halfway point for Malleus, which means I should be receiving
a partial manuscript any day now via email.
As
soon as I get any new material, once having cleared with Charles
that it is okay to do so, I will post as much as he allows in the
UPDATES AND PHOTOS section.
Charles said he renewed his objection to being cooped up indoors for
two days on end, stated that he felt caged, and that when the
hurricane finally leaves, he is very likely to run outside and ...
"keep running until I reach Canada, just for the hell of it, and
because it'll be my first crack at freedom in two days". He also
said, however, that the end of the book is now in sight, and that
the final chapters promise to provide enough fireworks to keep
readers turning pages until they hit the end.
Well, looks like Charles is 20,000 words into Malleus, and
from what I've read so far, it stands to be every bit as fierce as
Charles let on that it would be. You can read the pre-edit version
of Chapter One
HERE, Chapter Three
HERE, and Chapter Four
HERE. Chapter Two is unavailable at
this time, though I don't know why. Charles often leaves whole
sections of in-progress books unavailable for readers, preferring
instead to paste the entire novel together at the end. Consider the
first three of four chapters to be Easter eggs, if you will.
And
trust me ... the rest is even better!!!
Malleus is easily going to be Charles' best work ever!!!
In certain extreme
situations, one must act outside the law in order to pursue natural
justice.
Edison Adams is the
answer to the inadequacy of the letter of the law.
In the shadow of an
entire world thrown into chaos by the ruling elite, one man has
taken it upon himself to rid the world of those who would subdue the
entire human species.
The Illuminati
Hammer may be mankind's only hope for survival.
I
will provide updates as fast and as often as possible, assuming I'm
able to get in touch with Charles on a regular basis. He's been
known to get into a writing tear which leaves him unreachable for
days on end. However, I have access to several methods by which I
can contact him (let's call these methods "Bat Phones"), so if one
doesn't work, I'll try all the others.
Well, I know I told you I'd be doing the "webmastering" here from
now on, but the fact is ... I'm just not that into that sort of
thing. I've never been very good at it, I'm not the least bit
efficient at it, I have little patience for it, and by midnight on
Saturday, I just flat out won't have ANY time for it. Writing a full
novel in 30 days requires ALL my focus and attention. And that means
I'd be completely ineffective at being my own webmaster.
So
...
I've
enlisted Anthony Harmon, a friend of mine who happens to be the
founder of the "A Song of Independence Fan Club". I've known Anthony
for years now and I can tell you all without hesitation that I trust
him fully with both the upkeep of the site and the accuracy of
everything that will be posted here as well.
In
short, he's no Shawn King. You can trust Anthony. At least I know I
can ... and that's a huge load off my mind.
So,
from here on out, most postings will be from him. I'll still write
for the site and the news section, on occasion, but Anthony will
post all of that ... verbatim from what I write ... unlike how Shawn
did things around here.
Please welcome Anthony. He's a great guy and a great addition to the
site.
THE SETUP PROCESS FOR WRITING A FULL NOVEL IN 30 DAYS
Saturday, October 24, 2009
Posted by Charles Copeland
Yep,
it's Saturday, which means there are only 7 days to go until
NaNo 2009. I've been putting myself
through sensory deprivation for the past 2 weeks in order to
properly re-wire my brain for this year's NaNo (same as all the
others), and dealing with the myriad of problems created in the last
week or so and dumped right in my lap, which is LOADS of fun. Add to
that the severe temptation of just jumping into the writing process
right now (oh, the pacing and pacing I've done) ... screw waiting
the next 7 days ... and I've pretty much turned myself into my very
own monster.
If
you were to watch the videos posted in the
Multimedia section (complete with
the present version of me sporting flashy new bags under my eyes),
you'd understand why this is NOT a good time for me to confront
problems in the hopes of finding creative and productive solutions.
Instead, what I've done lately is swing the proverbial baseball bat
with my eyes closed, just waiting to see what gets hit hardest.
Sometimes in life, virtually EVERYTHING becomes a piñata ...
The
first 3 days of a writing journey usually come with a decent dose of
proverbial baseball bat swinging. I just hope candy comes out of the
computer on which I'm writing this ...
SHAWN KING IS NO LONGER THE WEBMASTER AT CHARLESCOPELAND.COM
Saturday, October 24, 2009
Posted by Charles Copeland
As of 9 AM,
Friday, October 23, Shawn King is no longer the webmaster at
CHARLESCOPELAND.COM.
He
has been fired, effective immediately, to contemplate his mistakes.
I have no
need to defend myself, but I will say here and now that Shawn made
multiple claims about me which he claimed were "on my behalf" on multiple sites across the internet that were
completely untrue and now I am tasked with going to all those sites
to clean up messes he made.
From now on,
I, Charles Copeland, will be the webmaster for this site.
And no more
lies will be allowed to be spread about me.
Period.
After tonight, ANY
comments about me anywhere on the internet that are baseless lies
will be treated as slander and/or libel and the people spouting
those lies will be met with the swiftest, most aggressive legal
measures possible.
