[close] Twelve-year-old Bobby Dalton doesn't want to grow up. All his life, he has relied on the imaginary games of childhood with his best friends Joe and Max to get him through the tough times. But this all changes when his Seventh-Grade class buries a time capsule to commemorate the end of the 1980s. Now Bobby is being haunted by visions: ghostly doppelgangers of himself, his friends, and others. He calls them “déjà view.” Are these visions real, or has his imagination finally gotten away from him? And if they’re real, what do they want? Bobby needs to figure this all out to survive his childhood…and his life. From the author of the award-winning Danger Peak, Déjà View is a darkly funny coming-of-age dramedy with a sci-fi twist, cranked up to eleven. But even more, it’s at once a pulse-pounding thrill ride and a haunting portrait of paranoia, mental illness, and the unbearable sadness of growing up. Available now on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.com.

[close] The Ballad of Stinky Pete: A Sordid Sketchbook Tale of Courtrooms, Casino Goons, and Beauty Queens Gone Bad Now at Amazon, Ingram and Ingram Spark Hot off the Print on Demand Presses is my latest book, "The Ballad Of Stinky Pete." It is a book evolved from a series of faux courtroom sketches made during the Trump Hush Money/Financial Crimes trial. The book is a hilariously dark satirical tale about a courtroom sketch artist who travels to New York to cover the Donald Trump Hush Money Trial. From the moment he arrives in New York City, he suffers a series of misadventures that take him into a world of failed Ad Men, corrupt Casino Mobsters, and Beauty Queens with really odd talents. It's an inspired parody of advertising, newspaper publishing, and Donald Trump's courtroom ballyhoo. This is a must for anyone who enjoys satire that rises to Swiftian levels of ridicule. This Trump parody will definitely give readers a laugh in the darkest of times! It’s 72 B&W pages of weirdness and satire.

Also thanks to David Pendleton for lending me his ventriloquism dummy and to Jeff Goltz for holding the book as well to the hilarious sketches I saw that evening — probably the funniest things I've ever seen on a stage.
