Have you read American Muse, the Starlite Pulp Review anthology which contains my novella The Idiot Caper? I managed to pack so much action, comedy and criticism of gentrification in 25k words. Get it from here www.starlitepulp.com/product-page... Or here: mannytorresnovelist.com

This is a book I did not write but instead inspired. 15 extraordinary tales written by 15 exceptional authors. I consider them ‘canon’ and have since piggybacked/inserted a few of them into Bishop’s narrative. Get it before it’s gone. #BookSky www.bishopriderbooks.com

The book that inspired Blood Meridian. It’s been out of print for years with originals going for $$$. But the book is public domain now so this publisher had the prudence to republish it.

Synopses are where writers break out their worst verbs. The story follows... the character journeys… events unfold… tensions rise… No. Make it specific. Make it sharp. The way you describe the plot should sound like your book.

Five people fight each other over the cut of robbery money, all while listening to a jukebox filled with records by The Can. “Tango Whiskyman” and “Deadlock” feature heavily from Can’s Soundtracks album.

The film Performance joins @criterioncollection in this compact but arty package. One of my favorite films of all time that I’ve seen as many times as I’ve seen Jaws. The opening 30 seconds are absolutely breathtaking and the soundtrack is my favorite of all time too. Going to write a substack too.

Travel well, Jamie Muir.
