THERE'S A MAN IN THE FUNNY PAPERS WE ALL KNOW

Crumb as seen by a black cartoonist! Isn't that interesting? Hmmm? I smell a Taschen book! (Strictly segregated, of course!) From a TURTLES comic, about 1987.

REVIEWS!

Responses from two advance readers of THAT'S SHOW BIZ!, my first novel:

"I have read five chapters of your book and I have to say I'm loving it.  Loving it!  Great prose style, well rounded characters, a great feel for the sleazy world they live in.  The only thing I suggest is being more definite about when it takes place.  Until you mention television it could be any time from the teens to the fifties.  Let the audience know when this is taking place.  Other than that I am eating it up.  Good show old man!"

***

"The story is very vivid both in terms of the settings and characterizations. You can see and feel the events as they unfold. A for real page-turner!"

Thanks, fellas!-MK.

YOU KNOW WHAT??...I'm HAPPY.

I've completed the final draft of my first novel. Final before I test it on a few who've volunteered to read it, that is. Four bells for Milton!
