The Salvation of Billy Wayne Carter
I am a week late announcing the news that my friend David M. Hornbuckle has published his novella The Salvation of Billy Wayne Carter, as an e-book. It’s a very entertaining story, but perhaps what is most entertaining, but not nearly as shocking, is that the editor chose the naughty sweaty-making-feeling sex scene as the excerpt. This may explain the evil grin on David’s face in the author photo.
I know how you feel, David. You mention for instance, how your ladyflower feels just once in a piece, and wooosh, there it is in the pull-quotes. Editors can be such rascals!
The first day this was available to download, the site to purchase took so many hits it went down, so I delayed my congratulatory post.
In other “wow that’s so great and nice” news, DM Hornbuckle came out to Brooklyn from Manhattan to help me transport a magically real dresser I bought off of craigslist, and saved me from trial and suffering. Turns out it’s not so easy or pleasant to deal with men with vans off the internet. David with a Volvo station wagon is infinitely better, plus you get to discuss making work while riding around with the windows rolled down.
David is a not just busy and kind man, he writes fabulously every day, and of interesting things to boot. He makes me wish I could write fiction.
Check out and buy the ebook The Salvation of Billy Wayne Carter, or I’ll not like you anymore. I promise you’ll like it, unless you’re my mother.
wow. Thanks for the kind endorsement.
i would have written it even if you didn’t help me move a dresser.
thank you for the story.
