Maybe he's a walk-in from another planet. Or maybe he's an incarnate from another star system. Whatever he is, one thing is for sure: Tom Raimbault is one of those guys who are waiting for the mother ship to land.
Every night as Tom slips into bed, he powers on his spirit box, and checks for any new messages from the discarnates. It isn't uncommon to hear a message such as, "Good morning!"
But why should they greet Tom with this sort of message?
It's because he is about to be received into to the astral realm where he most often spends some hours on board the Arcturian starship, Athena. Through astral projection, Tom travels to the area in our solar system between Jupiter and Saturn where he is received by Arcturians for more instruction and training.
Afterwards, Tom begins the waking portion of his day during the witching hour where he spends about an hour of writing, followed by a rigorous workout. He then prepares for the day, eats breakfast and leaves for work. But about midway through the commute, he suddenly feels weak and exhausted. It is necessary to pull off the highway and meditate where he is, once again, guided through the astral plane onto the Arcturian starship, Athena, for debriefing. Upon his return, Tom is fully merged and part of the physical world here on Earth.
At work, Tom develops alien implants. His lab has been secretly contracted by a mysterious customer that is suspected to have direct ties with the Zeta aliens. The implants are used on Earth abductees who are brought onboard Zeta spaceships for studying and various experiments.
Tom has a dreadful phobia of having things tied around his neck. This is because in one of his past lives, Tom was a witch who was put to death--by hanging--for practicing witchcraft.
As a writer, Tom specializes in the genres of fantasy, horror, macabre and erotica. Many of his works are published. Be sure to check out Tom’s ongoing Mapleview project, a series of novels that relay the strangeness and horror of his fictional town, Mapleview. Currently published in the series is Amber—the death mask, and The Tree Goddess—a novel of mystery and macabre. In the spring of 2013, the second book of the Amber trilogy—sex magick—will be published.
And don’t forget his debut publication, Freaked out Horror—ghosts, the macabre and really, weird things!
Tom Raimbault resides in the Chicago land area with his wife and two daughters. When not writing, he works as an RF technician at the lab of Freescale Semiconductor. He is self-described on his resume as a “technology professional” who has worked with cellular and IP infrastructure, biomedical equipment, emergency two-way radios and computer hardware.
Tom began to produce weird writings back in 2000 while working the graveyard shift. The nightly edits were emailed to a small collection of coworkers who looked forward to something unusual to keep them awake or humored.
This practice was ended when he was moved to a different shift. Sadly, his enjoyment of writing was forgotten for several years until the autumn of 2007 when old friends received a “blast from the past” email with the recognizable words, “Hello All”. The strange writings and short stories had resumed and a personal website was soon to follow.
Be sure to check his blog where he shares his daily freestyle writings, short stories and even deleted scenes or excerpts from his published books. http://talkaboutafterhours.blogspot.com/
