Surfer Girl


Growing up in Hawthorne California, the Manhattan Beach Pier was just a twenty minute bus ride away.  I spent countless summer days experiencing the sun, sand, surf, and surfer girls.
Check out the audio version of SURFER GIRL, an excerpt from my book THE SPIRIT GUIDE BAR.

SURFER GIRL

The story was produced by the scary talented GARY GIDAK of GIDAK DIGITAL.

THE SOUTH BAY DAILY BREEZE


Do you remember when dopey kids delivered newspapers. Long time ago, I know. Guess it's been a long time since people actually read newspapers, hasn't it?

Yours truly was a pretty bad newspaper boy. And I'm not talking' the powder blue 57 Chevy kinda bad either.

You can here about my exploits as a bad newspaper boy for the South Bay Daily Breeze at the is link.

SOUTH BAY DAILY BREEZE

The audio version was produced by the ridiculously talented Gary Gidak.
It's pretty cool if I don't say so myself.

Or

you can actually read the story here. It's part of a collection of stories called THE EIGHT-FINGERED CRIMINAL'S SON.

THE EIGHT-FINGERED CRIMINAL'S SON

If you're part of my vast army of eleven regular blog readers, go on about your business. You've probably already heard about my books and CD about seven thousand times.

By the way, my CD, STORIES FROM THE SPIRIT GUIDE BAR, is available on Spotify. I earn 1/16th of a cent every time someone listens to one of my stories on the service. This means if every man, woman and child on the planet listens to each of the seven stories, I can pick up that new toaster I've been eyeballing.

DID I EVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE TIME I MET GENERAL GRANT?


I met General Grant in the can at the Spirit Guide Bar.
Really.
I'm not kidding around.

Here is my shameless link to the audio version of the story:

Stories From the Spirit Guide Bar

Producer Gary Gidak is a stinking genius.
Fred Perez's work on the banjo has been described as  beautiful - haunting.
Steve Poyter is nothing short of brilliant as General Grant.
Really.
I'm not kidding around.
