I had such a “Back in my Day” experience yesterday. My oldest basset, using some birthday money, ordered a few toys off of Amazon. He was pushing me to let him pay extra for next day shipping. I told him two day is plenty fast and to save his money. He was clearly very excited to get his new toys and just couldn’t wait. I remember when I was a kid, on the rare occasion when I did order things rather than buy them in the store, you had to wait six to eight weeks for your package to arrive. It was ALWAYS six to eight weeks. By the time you got your package you had completely forgotten you had ordered it. We learned the true meaning of patience. Come to think of it, I am still waiting on that decoder ring I ordered from the back of that cereal box to be coming in the mail. Any day now.

“Immersive… Brutal… Primal… ” KIRKUS Review
Baer Creighton is a gifted distiller of fruited moonshine, cursed with the ability to detect even the subtlest deception. He lives in the woods next to his house and talks to his dog Fred… until Fred goes missing. A week later, harvesting apples in moonlight, Baer watches a string of headlights emerge from a distant wood. A single truck turns toward Baer, backs in, tosses Fred to the ditch.
Baer vows to hunt down every man present at the fight ring and give him the cruelest death he can muster. But he tips his hand and begins a war of attrition against a cabal of men steeped in blood sport and thirsty for violence. Baer’s moxie will either lead him to unleash the most horrifying vengeance he can distill, or paradoxically, back to humanity, and redemption.
Or both.

Not to Mention a Nice Life: A Novel
by Sean Murphy
Genre: Literature & Fiction | Literary Fiction | Humor & Entertainment | Satire
FREE for a limited time
Byron is a poet. And he knows it. The problem is, he’s unable to make art out of the mess he has made of his life.
The more Byron drinks, the more money he makes. If he can keep up this pace, he might enable his embattled company to stay in the black. Maybe if he doubles down, all those stock options will split, reconcile and multiply. This is his story and he’s stuck to it.
Byron is a real piece of work in progress.
He’s old enough to own his own condo and pay all his bills most of the time; young enough to be unmarried but understand he is not getting any younger. Byron would love to mix things up and instigate some excitement into his own humble narrative. Unfortunately, a fight scene is not feasible, a car chase is getting too carried away, and a love interest appears to be out of the question. Also, he has to be awake and ready to work in the morning, just like everyone else.
A recovering bartender, Byron struggled to escape the self-destructive restaurant business.
But drinking and drugging of the corporate world are more pervasive–and encouraged–than he could ever have imagined. He finds himself unprepared for life after thirty, and ambivalent about the semi-fortune his stock options might eventually yield. Then, when a rumor circulates that a devastating round of layoffs is scheduled to occur just before Christmas, Byron begins to envision where he’ll be when something approximating reality comes crashing down.
Not to Mention a Nice Life examines corporate America during the not-so-quiet storm that preceded the historic economic meltdown of 2008.
