If you have enjoyed reading some of the work posted on this blog you may be interested in reading my novel.
A nice guy, fifty-three years old, gets downsized—out of
work 3 years. Willie Brenner loses everything white middle class has given: savings,
wife & daughter, home . . . even his dog. He moves into a low rent neighborhood
and floating world of ethnicities and lifestyles previously unknown. Men
and women working to survive at a near poverty level of existence. Temps jobs: heavy
lifting, cleaning—fumes . . . jobs that can kill you, back problems and accidents. Readers will follow a runaway mother with Alzheimer’s,
a bank robber (The One Armed Bandit), one serial killer, two lawyers, a
motorcycle gang, two artists, a Buddhist abbot (Iron Ma) and a braless barista
who loves sex. There are some good times with the bad and new friends held by
the bonds of common labor. A mid-life man maintains his sense of humor and rediscovers himself, Lost in
Seattle.

One heck of a scary incline in that photo! It looks more like a roller coaster than a road!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a plot a lot of Americans can relate to. I will go to Amazon to read the first pages of it...
