Haha. Aww, what did the Taurus ever do to anybody? I loved that car. It was damn sturdy and reliable (so would make a stable mobile home). I passed mine onto my brother-in-law and he’s got it up to 300,000+ miles.
I was in CT this weekend too. So beautiful with all the rain and trees starting to change. I was in Western CT. Maybe you saw me with a bunch of dogs and dog lovers.
If I was worried about the money I wouldn't have brought it up. I want you to have the book for your many travels ( and of course wouldn't mind joining you for some readings, somewhere )
Really enjoyed the story. Love lines like, "To pass the time, he listens to tapes on an old tape player. How to Speak Spanish in Seven Easy Lessons. Lord Jim by Joseph Conrad." Makes me wonder what books I could live inside of for months/years at a time.
I have a friend who just turned 50. Would definitely like to grab a copy of "Corporate Rock Sucks" from you. Makes for a great gift. Let me know how to proceed. Safe travels.
Solid story! Fun fact: I drove a '01 Taurus for years though it was not baby-shit brown.
This will not make you happy but I looked up "what is the saddest car" and that was one of the contenders!

I know, right? Thanks again for the kind words about the story.
Currently reading Make It Stop!

Ha! I was on the coast and made a quick trip to Newtown. Not a fan of the weather!
The story is great.
Thank you! It has Jimmy Doom vibes for sure!
One quick note: the mag version is missing the word "end" in the ballistic scene. Not a huge deal but I would want someone to tell me.
Did you give me an address to send you my new book? I need that.
Typos fixed!
Good. I forgot to mention how brilliant the " guided tour of your own city" bit was. I'm jealous of that one and kinda want to do it in real life.
Thank you! It's hard because it involved STFU!
I'm not good at S ( ing ) TFU
Thank you! I sent that correction along. Much appreciated!
I haven't sent the address because I haven't sent you money yet!

Are you back in LA?
Great story! Was not the ending I expected.

Thanks, Travis! Send me your address and I'll reply with my Venmo. FWIW I have those Lord Jim tapes used to listen all the time.
Thanks. Is there a way to directly send you my address? Or in this case, my friend's address?
