The first review of Wild Bill has come in, thanks to Charlie Stella (Johnny Porno, Shakedown, Cheapskates) through his always thought-provoking blog, Temporary Knucksline. Charlie was even thoughtful enough to provide his own blurbable excerpt:
Action packed, loaded with Higgins-like dialogue and clever, Leonard-like plotting, Wild Bill is more than a sure footed debut … it’s wonderful, a GREAT read.

Many thanks to Charlie, not least for his generous offer to allow me to co-write an anthology with him. Details to follow.
He told me a long time ago just how good he thought this book was. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteThe new look on your website is a keeper, Dana.
ReplyDeleteAs soon as things settle down in my life down here, I'm checking out WILD BILL. If Charlie likes it, it must have a lot of pictures.
Patti, Dana fooled me on this one. This is one I'd never read before, something he wrote before the one I checked for typos on. It's terrific.
ReplyDeleteBut I didn't allow him anything. I asked him if he'd write a short story collection with me. I started one already.
Morphine in the morning ... rotator cuff injury from sleeping the wrong way last week. Absolute torture. This is the second night in a row I can't sleep. I put off the hospital for a week because of the temping gig, but tomorrow, hurricane leftovers or not, I'm at the hospital. This is torture.
