"Midnight Showdown" by Sandra Seamans

For those that have the audacity to believe that women can't write westerns...



...Sandra Seamans just lassoed, hog-tied and branded them with "Midnight Showdown."


Yes, I'll cut you loose, but as far as putting aloe on that big "S" on your back? You are on your own.

The Man Of The Hour!

The man of the hour-



The book in question-



And you can order it here.

Pop on by to his blog and tell Jack Martin, "Congratuations and cheers!"
P.S. As pointed out by Paul D. Brazill, here is the first chapter of The Tarnished Star.

Blogpourri Time

My friend, author, animator and illustrator Stephanie Olivieri has joined blogdom, with I'm Just Saying. Please drop on by place and welcome her to the Blogosphere.

For Bubs? What could've been. Nick Cave has allegedly wrote a great sequel script to "Gladiator" and Russell Crowe was all for it, but the studios nixed the deal. I'll say this; Nick Cave wrote the best damn Australian western I have ever seen in "The Proposition," and it could've been just as easy to make the movie about Maximus's brother.

Gary Dobbs is on Crimewav this week, reading Rhondda Noir.

Last, but not least; tomorrow, Corey Wilde will be interviewing David Zeltserman, the author of "Pariah." Corey's review had convinced me to put "Pariah" on my October TBR pile.

That's Me In Corner...

That's me...though that's not...quite...right
Appearing in a Paul D. Brazill story.

Between keeping up with off-season NFL moves, crime fic blogs and my blog roll, I don't get a lot of chances to get over to Gary Dobbs's Tainted Archive, the finest western blog that I know of and in all likelihood, the best ever. This is a shame, because Mr. Dobbs covers both classic and neo westerns with equal passion, while most blogs tend to stick to one or the other. If you are ever on a game show, and you need a phone lifeline concerning western literature or film, Gary has to be your lifeline, period.

So the little "blogs that I'm following" window said that he was featuring guest blogger Paul D. Brazill. I read a little further and it turns out that Mr. Brazill wrote a story and well, you'll just have to read it for yourselves.
