Jack, I appreciate the variety in your writing; you skillfully setup of the first chapter. The snappy dialogue and carefully selected words--the imagery is vivid and the book as a whole is very well constructed

Hi Jack. I just wanted to say that I dipped into your booke earlier and I very much liked what I have read. I like the way you write. You seem to have skill and talent.

Brendan

This is an interesting story.. You have good characters in both Alexandra and Johnny. Your inside knowledge on how radio works shows through on every page. Makes this a good read.

Burgio

 

The dialogue is excellent and you paint a vivid and deft picture of your characters, which is the most important thing for any book.

Best, lynn

 

It's the names. I finally caught on half way through the book. You are a master at your craft.

Rick

 

The sex in the book was rather raunchy.  If that Knight was real, I would have to cut his dick off.  He was really an ass.  It was interesting  to read some about the inner workings of a radio station.

That was a slick ending.  I never thought it would have ended that way.  You must have a devious mind.

Frank

If you're in broadcasting, this is a MUST READ!

Jack was working in the lab late one night...

 

Author of 7 exciting novels, photographer, outdoorsman, electrical engineer and former radio personality. Jack of many trades; master of none. A man who knows exactly what he wants, but hardly ever gets it.

 

If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one around to hear it, does it still make a sound?

 
If a politician speaks, they're lying.
 
You're dead longer than you're alive.
 
There's a lot of sadness in the world.

 
When the commercials are louder than the program I'm watching on TV, I simply mute the whole set of commercials.

Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled peppers?

If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,

Where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?

She sells seashells by the seashore.

The shells she sells are surely seashells.

So if she sells shells on the seashore,

I'm sure she sells seashore shells.

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

A woodchuck would chuck all of the wood that a woodchuck could chuck, if a wood chuck could chuck, would chuck, wood.
