The Jesse James Scrapbook
Updated at Apr 1, 2021, 22:56
The Jesse James Scrapbook explores the life and times of Jesse James and his importance as a national figure during the Civil War and Reconstruction eras. The tale is told through the voice of the press and people of America, fictionally recreated but based on actual historical sources. It is all here: chattel slavery, Bleeding Kansas, Quantril and his raiders, "The War for Southern Independence", the Younger Boys, the Pinkertons, the Northfield Raid and Cole Younger's capture and imprisonment. Robert Ford, "that dirty little coward," plays his role as an assassin and meets his ultimate fate in a Colorado boom town. Entertaining and provocative it is a fiction worthy of the true legend of Jesse James.

Haunts
Updated at Jan 18, 2022, 21:37
Haunts presents an amazing ride through the back alleys of San Francisco, into a rehearsal studio filled with jealousy, violence and ghostly apparitions, all existing in a city as wondrous as it is repellent. George Zumpo, a down on his luck "half-breed" arrives in the City seeking his wife, his dog and his Volkswagen Westfalia Camper. There he meets homeless drunks, crazy cocaine snorting musicians, and a loose family of friends living in a 1970's South of Market warehouse. A novel as funny as it is dark, as tragic as it is hopeful, Haunts is a captivating portrait of people down on their luck.
