GUIDELINES: just gonna keep things simple here for the most part
★ first things first, I'm NOT Paul McCartney, though I do admire him quite a bit. My portrayal of Paul comes from various sources such as interviews, The Beatles films, etc.& although it is, ultimately, my portrayal, it's my goal to stay as true to him & his musical legacy as possible.
★ this blog is ultimately unassociated with any particular fandom as he exists in the real world vs. a fictional work. That being said, I'm willing to interact with just about anyone from any fandom, though I do ask that we are MUTUALS beforehand. Also, something most RPers would frown upon, I'm not totally opposed to interacting with personal blogs to a certain extent. I would mainly appreciate any of those interactions to be in the ASK box, however, as I may not follow back every personal blog that follows me. Please do not reblog threads or any OOC posts without my permission!
★ i am not exclusive with every single character i interact with, however i may be exclusive with specific ones. There are also characters/blogs that I will consider my mains, which means though I recognize them as my primary, I am not opposed to RPing with others of the same character. You can navigate to the next popup for more info on those mains/exclusives, as they arise.
★ everything on this blog (like writing, themes, icons, etc.) is edited/made by me & let's be real i can't stop you from taking my shit, just be a good person about it.
★ third person past/present ; short - novella sized threads ;selective & private meaning mutuals only -- this is nothing against the individuals who I may not be following back out there, merely my own preference in writing.
★SHIPPING should not be your sole intention and will not be pre-established, generally ( unless discussed beforehand ).
★ sexy times may happen, but i 'read more' that shit. ( anything i'm aware of that may pose as a trigger to someone will be tagged similarly to 'suicide cw //' etc.)
★ this blog is open to OCs and other fandoms, however I'm not comfortable with interacting with OC children, OC spouses, or similar OCs that have a pre-existing history with Paul that I'm not aware of unless otherwise discussed beforehand.
★ don't godmod or start crap w/ me about other people OR The Beatles. I'm not here to foster your personal opinion on The Beatles or Paul, however I will have a feature known as Paul's Advice Column in which Paul will answer any questions you may have, be it about something going on in your personal life or otherwise. All I ask is that you do not abuse that function by conciously bringing bad juju regarding myself, another person mentioned by name, or Paul/The Beatles into my zone.
It's all pretty straight forward stuff but if for any reason you have any questions, don't hesitate to drop me a line B)

NAME: James Paul McCartney
AGE: 15-20
YEAR: 1957 - 1962
GENDER: Male
BIRTH PLACE: Liverpool, England
VERSE TAG: [ v.SKIFFLING ( late 50s. ) ]
DESC: Paul McCartney has just lost his mother, his father struggles meanwhile he meets up with John Lennon & his skiffle group, The Quarrymen, in Woolton, Liverpool at a Garden Fete. Long Tall Sally, Tutti-Frutti, & Twenty Flight Rock are the songs that earn himself a place in the band, nearly 2 weeks later. Now The Silver Beetles, the group travels to Hamburg, Germany & play tortorously long hours for measly wages before young George Harrison is deported for being underage & Paul is arrested alongside Pete Best for setting fire to a condom in an alley. Paul McCartney has replaced Stuart Sutcliffe on bass, and the Silver Beetles begin playing numerous dates at Liverpool's own CAVERN CLUB until August 3 1963, six months before their first trip to the US, during which Pete Best was replaced by Ringo Starr on drums, much to the dismay of many fans, and they had been discovered by their new manager, Brian Epstein. Three months later, after hearing about the death of Stuart Sutcliffe, The Beatles were signed by George Martin.
DESC: The Beatles finally break through overseas to the US & begin their first touring years in America. They sign a three-motion-picture movie deal & A Hard Night's Day is released in New York & London, HELP! not far behind in 1965. The Beatles tour internationally & John & George are unsuspectingly slipped LSD via their coffee for the first time by their Dentist, to which Ringo & Paul ( reluctantly ) eventually partake as well. Thus the psychadelic era began to emerge as The Beatles released many other albums such as Help!, Rubber Soul, & Revolver. The Beatles also officially quit touring, as the sound systems are not loud enough to accomodate their sound & immense popularity.
DESC: The Beatles have been subjected to internal as well as external controvery & begin to struggle as a group from within via disagreements & quarrels after their manager, Brian Epstein's, death in 1967. On 15 May 1967, Paul meets the woman who will eventually become his first wife in 1969, Linda Eastman, a photographer at the Bag 'O Nails club. Their first daughter, Mary, ( named after his late mother ) is born. The rumor of 'Faul McCartney' surfaces the same year: the conspiracy that Paul McCartney had died in a car crash in '66 and was replaced by a lookalike. Their final years bring forth albums such as Sgt. Pepper's & Magical Mystery Tour ( a creation of Paul's desire to keep the band together ), Yellow Submarine, The White Album, & finally Abbey Road & Let it Be before the band called it quits in 1970. Prior to and after Paul's official departure from The Beatles, he suffered a deep, severe depression. He would stay in bed and drink all day, & the only woman who could pull him out of it was Linda, who praised his works & gave him reason to continue writing and playing music.
DESC: Paul releases the solo album "McCartney" in 1970 and collaborated with his wife on "RAM" as they relocate to High Park Farm in Kintyre, Scotland However, he found it difficult to see himself as a solo musician, & he knew that any band that had to follow The Beatles would be tough and a hard act to follow, so he chose instead to go back to square one Thus WINGS was formed, composed of his wife Linda & Denny Laine at the time. Paul also adopts Linda's beliefs and teachings of Vegetarianism in 1975. Their second daughter, Stella (1971), & first son, James (1977), are born. In '79, Paul & Linda purchase property ( a ranch ) in Tucson, Arizona. In 1980, Paul is arrested for possessing a rather large amount of Marijuana at a Tokyo airport and spends 9 days in jail ( swearing by himself to be a model citizen while serving his sentence, though he was unaware of how long that might be ), before being released with no charges filed againts him; when he returned, he made the decision to break up Wings. John Lennon is assassinated & Paul is so stunned all he can say to reporters is 'it's a drag.'
DESC: Paul works on numerous solo albums & collaborations with music legends such as Stevie Wonder & Michael Jackson & former Beatle Ringo Starr, focusing on himself as a solo musician rather than trying to put together another band. ( Pipes of Peace, Tug of War, etc. ). Give My Regards to Broad Street is released in 1984. Linda McCartney passes away from Breast Cancer in '98 at their home in Tucson, Arizona. Paul is devestated & later ends up needing therapy to help deal with the loss. He vouches never to remarry. He sees Linda everywhere.
DESC: Paul remarries Heather Mills 4 years after Linda's death, though his children don't much care for her. He goes on the first large worldwide tour in a long time before divorcing Heather Mills & losing a lot of his money in the process. Paul old af. Marries Nancy. Is still hot. New tour. Kanye. Meme. Blasphemy. This is under construction.
