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?
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

"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.

And What a Journey . . .
it has been. Some of you remember the secret meetings I had with the Middle Eastern Women in Denver. I called it Breakfast with The Iranians. Right? Then I met up with and was sworn to secrecy by the Soldiers outside of Minneapolis St Paul. My god and what insightful meetings they were. Left me dumbfounded and wordless - right? Didn't last for long. The Passionate Jihadist has been taking shape and I have just stole a base and am within scoring distance.
As Walter Cronkite use to say . . . "In seeking truth you have to get both sides of the story." You have seen me do it with Brand of Justice and I continue that tradition now as I continue my journey to home plate. "And that's the way it is . . . on April 10, 2019."

Jakelin Caal Maquin
Autopsy For 7-Year-Old Migrant Who Died In U.S. Custody Shows She Died Of Sepsis
No . . . this life wasn't extinguished by Sepsis. Oh I get it. But . . . Hemmingway and Steinbeck already told us the 'how' and 'why' of Jakelin's demise. Then you have recent stories, highlighted in the previous post. Never a Child - The Kite Runner or how about The Son of Hammas anyone? Hopefully these stories will hoe the Devils Lettuce from the Garden of Humanity.

A Read for the Weekend - A Thousand Splendid Sun Rises
Man . . . I envy you if you haven't read this book yet. That is because you get to read it for the first time. The story takes place in Afghanistan, just as this authors other book, The Kit Runner did. Khaled Hosseini puts so much into human terms. Breathtaking! If you love these reads checkout Never a Child. I see it's available for the Kindle. These reads will change how you view your world!
