THE G-MAN AND ME

Posted on May 31, 2023May 31, 2023

I was 19-22 thereabouts years old or so during the Watergate era, experiencing the drip, drip, drip of news leaking out that eventually downed the sitting President. Goodbye Nixon! The subsequent “All the President’s Men” was a big book and a big movie. The mysterious Deep Throat wound up being FBI Mark Felt. But “following…

Tarzan Book Covers

Posted on June 9, 2022June 9, 2022

Last night my wife decided she wanted to watch…the latest Tarzan movie. (Might have something to do with this guy running around 3/4s naked?) Which we did. It somehow runs under two titles, Greystroke, the Legend of Tarzan, or just the Legend of Tarzan. The movie plot involved jewels and the location of Opar. I…

The November Man – Book to Movie

Posted on November 24, 2021December 31, 2021

BOOKS TO MOVIES Somewhere between the slow, boring Lecarre spy stories and the non-stop, shoot ‘em up Pendleton’s Executioner series, you’ll find floating around the rather unsung…The November Man books and single movie. In the book series Peter Devereaux was deemed the deadliest assassin in the CIA. The spy world dubbed him “The November Man,”…

Presumed Innocent – Book to Movie

Posted on November 6, 2021February 26, 2022

The book and movie entertainment world can muster quite a list of courtroom dramas. Professor Wikipedia testifies that a “trial film’ is a subgenre of the legal-courtroom drama that encompasses films that are centered on a civil or criminal trial, typically a trial by jury.” Such a list would take up this whole essay. Kill…

Joe Forrester, TV Street Cop

Posted on January 8, 2021September 28, 2021

Most of my 26 years in law enforcement, I was a “street” detective, Army (many places) and Texas. I guesstimate, my patrol time is only 7 years. I started there and I ended there. In Texas, I was happy being the “consummate patrolman” as I envisioned/defined it. I was very happy on the streets in…

The Great Escapes of Pancho Villa!

Posted on December 5, 2016September 28, 2021

     My first book has been lost through time. In 1981 my “Great Escapes of Pancho Villa” was published by a small north Texas publishing company, Pennington Press. It was non-fiction and concerned itself with some terrific, death-defying escapes. When I first discovered these Villa escapes from various history books, I was amazed by…

Be A Lucky Good Writer

Posted on November 30, 2016September 28, 2021

Charlton Heston use to say, “there are a million good actors. You have to be a lucky, good actor.” Having been involved in the book business since the 1980s, for writers, I paraphrase that line and say, “there are a million good writers, you have to be a lucky, good writer.” I have had writing…

I Got Hypnotized By the Story

Posted on September 11, 2014September 29, 2021

   The Story of the Stories        I got hypnotized by the story. What story? The story of stories.        I am not interested in a religion, just the religion of religions, not one culture, but the culture of cultures. Not philosophy, but the philosophy of philosophies. The psychology of psychologies….
