If people left the judging of others, to their respective gods, perhaps life could be better. Gods are probably strong enough to fight their own battles.
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!"

From a Reader
M. C.S.
Something to think about.

Knowledge
Actions speak louder than words and Jeremy Francis Plonski just screamed "Yes, the story, 'Justice' can happen." Knowledge is the beginning of the end for this jaded reality. Sometimes wolves wear uniforms.

Respect
Opinions matter. But it didn't do me any harm to listen to someone I didn't agree with. Besides Dublin was great fun to experience. If everyone shared my thoughts it would be a wee bit boring. Ya think?

Free Speech
Seems like every other comment I make is rejected. Not a hundred percent sure why. Makes you appreciate freedoms of speech.

Uncertainty
Market upheaval is never fun but does involve money. Compare that to War and the lose of life in Ukraine.

A Quote you can live by.
Jack McMurphy said it best . . . "But I tried, though, goddammit, I sure as hell did that much now didn't I?"

The Chronicles
Thanks for the kind thoughts dear readers. Agreed, my stories end with a bang and involve unique murders and storylines that are germane to the world we live in. Going to put pieces of a school shooter up on this blog as we spiral toward the good life. So what would the fox say?

Europe
Get to run around Amsterdam, Germany, Innsbruck, Italy and finally Spain. Chronicles for the Bold and Brave on tour I guess. Thanks go out to all who've made this possible.

Brand of Truth
Gotta wonder why I'm the most rejected poster on 'Open Web'. Guess I'll stick to my brand of truth. Strength comes with respecting differences of opinion.

The Rainbow Flag Allegiance
Very 'special' murder committed in this story. The murder weapon is, well, unusual. Why not identify it? I'm a author selling books, give me a brake.

The Bee Killer
PTSD by no other name, this story is as germane today, as the day it was written. Damn shame. Hit me up with a question rewarding this story. If you've been affected, please share.

Headed to Europe.
Be really interesting to meet up with the good folks of Ukraine. These folks know, first hand, what pain and suffering is all about.

Montana
Many thanks for the folks in Missoula who took time to hear a little old author out. Onward to Wisconsin for a book signing, where I hope a hundred books will cover it. Don't want to run out, right Mr. William Kent Krueger? Thanks for the tips and words of encouragement!

Measure of Character
It would seem the best judge of character is found in disagreements. If someone gets totally off base, do they land in the Name Calling Zone or raise their voices? Who needs a lie detector? Walk away from entrenched thinking. Enough said?
Now We know
I guess we can now say we know the where and when. Violence seems to be rolling into a way of life.
