  • Writing In Suburbia #15: It All Happens At The Bar

    This week on Writing In Suburbia I fight Mexican drug cartels while my sidekick, Johnny Guns, woos the local madame to get information on the deadly Russian plot to take over Murica!

    Or I talk about networking and the importance of friendships and professional connections in the industry. In essence: why writers drink so much.

    It all happens at the bar!

    Plus I decide it’s a good day to wash sheets.

    Enjoy!

    Not Jelly
    By
    Jake Bible

    The cup of coffee had long since gone cold by the time Malcolm was able to tear his eyes away from it and look at the gun that lay upon the kitchen table.

    He studied the curves, the blued steel, the way the thing looked heavy even though it was only his .22 target pistol.

    His eyes went from the gun to the strawberry jelly that covered the table around it. The dark red and hunks of fruit.

    “Not jelly,” he whispered to himself.

    He picked up his phone and dialed 911, ready to report what his wife had done.

  • Writing In Suburbia #14: Wake Up Call

    Welcome to another episode of Writing In Suburbia!

    This week I get real about how income can flip on a dime (no pun intended). I also talk a little about getting back to my roots of being a pulp fiction writer. Okay, I talk a lot about getting back to my roots of being a pulp fiction writer.

    And there might be some thoughts on soup and working food service.

    Enjoy!

  • Friday Night Drabble Party!

    Folks, it is that time of the week again! RITUAL HUMAN SACRIFICE TIME!

    What? That’s Wednesdays? And we aren’t supposed to talk about it? Not to anyone? Ever?

    Well, that’s a bummer. What’s the point of sacrificing one’s enemies if you can’t brag about it on one’s blog and/or social media? Sometimes I question the morals of this country.

    Hey! Speaking of morals! Did you know Z-Burbia is only $.99 right now? AND, if you buy it you can add on the audiobook for only $1.99 more? Hot damn!

    HOT DAMN!

    Now, on to tonight’s drabble! HUZZAH!

    Enjoy!

    The Loop Never Stops

    Trapped. The current data is processed at two gigabytes per second. The loop never stops.

    Cassie stared at the words on her screen. She glanced over her left shoulder. No one was watching her. She glanced over her right shoulder. Herb was watching, but that perv was always watching.

    Trapped. Enter protocol for return. The current data is processed at three gigabytes per second. Exponential growth. Cannot maintain position. The loop never stops.

    Cassie was about to reply when Herb cried out then vanished into his monitor. Into it. Then gone.

    Cassie decided it was time to go to lunch.

  • Writing In Suburbia #13: Potpourri!

    That’s right, Alex, I’ll take potpourri for $100!

    Yep, this week’s episode is a hodgepodge (which I just found out is one word. Who knew?) of topics from music while writing to quantity v. quality to whatever. I’m all over the place in this one! ALL OVER THE PLACE!

    And I play some blues harp, because blues harp.

    Enjoy!
