Enter A Fistful Of Marijuana Summary

Enter a Fistful of Marijuana 



Jack Steele is a former super-spy, brought out of retirement by the International Internal Revenue Service (IIRS) for one last mission; to infiltrate the Canadian Rocky Mountain headquarters of Jacques LaPlante and get him to pay his fair share of taxes for his drug distribution network and greenhouse sales. If he could also rescue Ruby Valentine, that would be nice.
BFFs Flint, Boogie and Uwe are proud young men of the town of Wee Danpot. They take it upon themselves to warn LaPlante, the town of Wee Danpot's number one employer and mayor.

Little to any of them know that LaPlante has plans of his own, to change the world through his genetically modified marijuana, bringing peace, prosperity and unity to all.

The world's only hope lies in Jack Steele and the IIRS.

*****Overall, a great read for anyone seeking something fun, sometimes deranged, and lighthearted!*****

Books in Development.

Enter a Fistful of Marijuana has been receiving some decent feedback from a few actual online reviews and a bump up in the downloads. Still pretty far away from getting a royalty check but it's nice to see it picking up some steam.

Right now, I'm participating in that November Nano thing - while it helps in the 'pump out a lot of words' i don't know how it's going to all come out at the end. Well, I do know. It's going to be messy.

So for my own record, here's the major stories I've put aside for now as I hate closure.

Enter a Fistful The Sequel - ok, so i contradict myself, this is my nano project but once November is done, it's going to be a mess trying to organize this. It follows what happens with Jacques LaPlante's master plan from EaFoM. It follows at least 3 main characters, plus a lot of 'outtakes' or 'short stories' of other characters. 25% done

Stoner, Unincorporated - I'm in the formatting stage of this one after a couple years delaying a rewrite, If i concentrate, I might be able to push this out in the start of December if I don't mind falling behind on The Sequel. 85% done

Flies - The story of teen murders, centered around juvenile delinquents and group homes. Another 3 main characters, one a foster home Big Brother, another a group home worker, and the third being a cop whose son has been convicted of sex crimes. It's a week in the life of all of them, another one that's about 1/2 way done. 50% done

I of B - My attempt at a relatively serious tragedy/love story. It follows the life of 2 kids as they grow up and go their separate ways, only to rediscover each other decades later. Split into 1/3s, I have Act 1 done, parts of Act 2 and the last chapter of Act 3. Still a lot to go, losing the plots a little. 30%

Duff Ragwell and His Amazing Channel Changer - A rewrite of a manuscript i did 20 years ago. It would be good to go through it again, see what i would change, upgrade it from my extra 2 decades of writing experience. Rewrite at 0%


So 5 main projects before I have to come up with another original idea which as most writers know is where the real fun is. Priorities...
