My short stories are intended to move along rapidly with fast talking characters, plenty of action and fun to read.
There's
no over the top violence and blood letting, (plenty of murders though),
there's a sprinkling of mild profanity commonly used in those times and
there's no sex. Lots of "dames and "molls" of course, so imagination
will have to come in to play - hope that doesn't disappoint.
You could safely leave this open on your Kindle and not worry if one of the kids picked it up.
Thanks
for taking a look at my books, and if you decide to buy any, I hope you
enjoy your brief visit to a bygone era of American crime.
Volume 3 contains:
"Pretty Boy" Floyd - The Baby Faced Killer
When
the gates of the Missouri State Penitentiary clanged open one day in
March 1929, out stepped a handsome 22 year old guy who vowed never to
return. Under the nick name of "Pretty Boy" he carved himself a blood
spattered career which electrified America and could only end one way.
Jack "Legs" Diamond
Brought
up in the misery and squalor of Hell's Kitchen, Jack "Legs" Diamond
became one of ganglands most ruthless and vicious members and for a
while led what seemed a charmed life - all bad things come to an end
though....
Waxey Gordon
Petty thief, hoodlum, pickpocket,
he started life as plain Irving Wexler, but as "Waxey Gordon" climbed
the ranks of thugdom to become king of New Yorks underworld. His ambiton
and greed attracted the attention of the same guys who brought Capone
to justice - no contest.
Machine Gun Kelly
Easy going
George thought he was doing OK, but the fateful night in 1927 he met
Kathy Shannon changed his future for ever. Her ambition and goading,
plus her idea to arm him with the gun he was named after, took them from
bootlegging to bank robbery, kidnapping and life in jail.
Volume 3 is available on Kindle now:
Welcome to my blog
Welcome to my blog.
Although still working for a living I have plenty of spare time and energy. What do to with it I pondered for a while? It's too hot to work out here in Thailand where I now live, and I don't like alcohol enough to become an expert drinker (although I admit to trying occasionally).
Become a writer I mused. Why not? Sounds easy enough, but where to start? All the good advice says to write about something you're passionate about. OK here goes - I love movies, reading, travel, music, the internet, TV, blah, blah, etc. etc.
What about gangsters and bad guys I hear you ask? Yep, love them, so I'll write about those and see
if anybody likes my stories.
I hope you do :-)
