when you criticize someone and they are a different race, you're automatically labeled racist?
Ethel Rohan, author of ‘Out of Dublin’ on Curt Rude's writing. "Overall, great writing style. Reminds me of Rushdie: internal, emotionally complicated, and dualistic. Delivered with a sensitivity and awareness that is underrated. In one word his work is Awesome!" Check out my new site . . . www.curt-rude.com

Hiram King Williams
This man managed to live a creative life until opioids claimed his life in 1953. Drugs aren't anything new to our current situation. How we deal with matters is what matters.

Phoenix Cops take Shoplifting Seriously
To think . . . I wrote of these abuses in JusThis and Brand of Justice. Folks simply do not believe their eyes and refuse to hold our law enforcement community accountable. Where will improvements be made if we believe everything regarding . . . 'law enforcement' . . . ? Why do officers time and again continue to get caught by cameras? Why aren't they held accountable for filing false police reports? So many whys don't ya think.

A Quest for The Truth
So Iran denies responsibility for bombing Tankers. Right? But wait . . . The U.S. has photos. Enough said? Remember the Gulf of Tonkin. If the U.S. had surveillance on the sabotage why not take out the craft and hold up the hard evidence for consideration? I mean, we could've scrambled planes from Saudi Arabia and bingo. Then no news sources, that I know of, even ask the obvious question. I guess being an author such as I am, demands the truth and nothing but the truth.

Central Park Five
Story of the Five and the Corrupt Prosecutor blah-blah-blah was already told in Brand of Justice. A fine story from such a fine young man . . . don't ya think? 😏

Acts of War
When a Soldier returns to Civilized Society then what? Here you have comments after a ISIS Fighter was stabbed to death while he was a POW. The Soldier took a picture with the body while brandishing a knife. Some in his Unit turned him in. What happens when this behavior returns to the United States? So many questions. Read the Bee Killer. And yes . . . thank you for the comment yesterday.
“I’ve taken pictures just like that when I was overseas,” he continued, eliciting groans from his audience. “Didn’t text them to anybody, didn't put them on Facebook or Instagram, but a lot of my peers, a lot of us have done the exact same thing.”

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
"My mama says that stupid is as stupid does." -Forrest
Americans sacrificed so much so the minority (hopefully) can make death threats. When did civility go and get killed? Man I wished I lived in New York so I could exercise my right to vote there. If I ever met AOC, I'd tell her to do what I do . . . consider the source.

Just found out the owner of Higgins Bookstore passed-away. He was the owner of the Higgins Bookstore and huge supporter of yours truly. I had promised him a first edition of The Passionate Jihadist. Stings.

Wrongfully Convicted
So 'The Central Park Five' were wrongfully convicted as children and sent away by overzealous police. Sure looks like I got it right in "Brand of Justice" doesn't it?

Entertaining & Informative
The secret to becoming better informed, with a smile on your face, is to . . . gasp . . . read something that'll make ya better for it. Suggestion . . . Son of Hamas. I mean, if they're good enough to bomb shouldn't they be good enough to understand?

"The Word" is Unavailable
Thanks for the questions. The 'Word' is not available for additional work. I loved the Meet and Greet where we discussed 'The Passionate Jihadist' but unfortunately I did not have specifics on the release date. Just part of the publishing world I suppose. I'll keep you up to date on this site! Love Today because It could be your Last.

Bobby 'The Word' Wangsness
Man what a gift. My Editor in Chief is truly heaven sent. He is heading to Russia but oh c'mon man. No collusion. Just plain awesome insight into the English language. I thank him and here is to hoping he enjoys Moscow.

The Passionate Jihadist and a Great Beta Reader - Reuban.
So lets see here . . . Cordite is a term often used in novels. Big-time. So why isn't it in my story? I wanted more than anything to impact my readers with the Real McCoy so to speak. Many thanks for the Greatest Beta Reader in my honest opinion. Reuban "Boards" Boorman! You see Cordite isn't used anymore, so every-time you encounter it - in a novel - you shouldn't. Keep an eye out when reading your next John Stanford Prey story. Thanks Reuban.
