One Story



I'm asked over and over again which of the stories I wrote that I like the best. Many variables go into crafting a story. At least for me. So I truly pen point an absurdity in the world we share and I hammer on it. 'The Last Gargoyle' regards differences in values, compounded by drinking, that ends in an explosive ending. It is an all to true work though it is in fact 'Realistic Fiction'. Enjoy.

Europe

Guess I'm about to jump the creek. Looking forward to hanging out with readers in Germany-Austria-Italy and Spain. Start thinking about the questions now. First question is usually which story I wrote that I like the best. Also, am excited about hanging with some of Europe's best.

True is Stranger than Fiction

 And so it is, all my stories regard suffering and the smash up of this thing referred to as the human experience. Sad but true. Look and wonder. Is this necessary?

John Grisham 'Framed' Curt Rude 'Brand of Justice'

What do these books have in common? False Arrest-Prosecutor Misconduct-Wrongful Convictions. There you go. Read and be safe.

Hunting

Looks like I'm headed to Superior for some agate hunting and a book signing. Hit me up if you want a presentation between said city and, say, Eau Claire. By the way, William Kent Krueger had more used books for sale than yours truly. Perhaps it has something to do with his selling millions vs my sale in the neighborhood of a hundred thousand!

Marquette Tomorrow

Hope you can make it. Let's been seen and heard. Arriving with thirty-six books. Otherwise my stories are located on Amazon, libraries and online sites of your choice. Thanks in advance for my book club friends. Raining today. We need it. Right?

Runaway

Need a place to run to? Why not Steamboat Springs? Rodeo to hiking. They have it all. Besides, it's about balance. Too much writing (in my case) and not enough of hanging out isn't really advised.

Did Love Kill him?

"I like the taste of beer, its live, white lather, its brass bright depths, the sudden world through the wet brown walls of the glass, the tilted rush to the lips and the slow swallowing down to the lapping belly, the salt on the tongue, the foam on the corners." Dylan Thomas

Energy Crisis?


 

Can you imagine what the world would look like without Vetts and F150's? Does this make sense? I was told we need to fuel the economy to make the world go round. I'm thinking I'd drive this thing around before a Caddy . . . but we all have our opinions.

And to Think

Read and See

I've been told over and over again that cops would never do what the police are doing in my books. Realistic Fiction coming right up. Readers of JusThis or Brand of Justice have already realized it is what it is. Here's one for ya to consider . . . The Bee Killer.

Love at First Sight

Strolled into a heard of Mountain Goats and was blowen away. I mean the picture says it all. We live in an awesome place I tell ya. What are you waiting for? The World is your acorn and you are the squirrel.

Takes a Mountain

So I'm involved with my version of an Alpine Climb. I mean you have to be all in to make it to the top. I actually scooted around mountain goats. Air is thin enough to cause nose bleeds. Ninety at the base and snow and cold on the peak. It dawns on me, upon my return to the real world, that I had taken one big break from the daily grind and loved it. Yes there is a difference from areas of influence and concerns. Find your mountain!

Old Friend

Got to hang around with this guy after rafting the Yellowstone. Heard he was a pretty good author. I visited the last place he called home, Elmira, last year. Any guesses where this encounter occurred?

Reading in Red Lodge

May be out of touch but am looking forward to a reading in none other than Red Lodge. Then it's time for a new addition to my family. Will post in a couple! 

Integrity?

So Ted Goodman, claims Giuliani's most important asset, 'Integrity' can't be taken away. Man, he is right on the mark here . . . Giuliani never had any. It's stuff like this that makes the internet such a joy. How about seeing Clarence Thomas for what he is? I tell ya, when the going gets crazy, the nut jobs go to law school.

Indigenous Dinner



 Just do it. Meet. Consider. Understand. This would be me off the grid. Thank You Alaskan Berg. Step out of your comfort zone and enjoy. Mutual Respect is what it's all about my friends.

No Bears

Hanging out in the icy waters of the Yellowstone. Many thanks for the "Killing Custer" book. Promise to have a look at it after the Breaks. From what I've learned, James Welch died to early. Great meeting Rabbi Ed Stafman. This is one Legislator, from Montana, who gets it. Great "The Many Faces of Freedom" speech. It hit hard. Grizzles haven't caught up to me yet which is a good thing according to Josh and Heather.

Montana Tom Minor

Will be looking for a Grizzly's Bear in the next week. Pumped. I'll make an attempt to post, but who knows, with where I'm headed there aren't a lot of bars on the phone.

Germany

  So I'm in Germany and am asked what the Trump Thing is all about. Then the German burst out laughing and said the Americans must be pu...
