I am serializing Forty Bucks and A Dream: Stories of Los Angeles on Substack. New chapters drop Mondays. Below is the Table of Contents, with links to what’s posted before. FORTY BUCKS AND A DREAM: Stories of Los Angeles PROLOGUE Hungry Town STARLETS
Damn, Nancy. When I saw the picture of Quarry, my heart sank. I knew his history and I didn't know where this would go.
Reading you is dangerous because it tempts an old man to tell his stories. Wisdom says to let them die untold. The heart has a different piece of advice. Maybe too much wisdom leads to ennui.
Has anybody ever told you you can write? Don't stop now.

Great story ! Felt as if I was there in the bar with you two !
I love LA (probably because I live 90some miles away haha) and I love how you bring it alive.
Have always loved this story. Nothing’s changed. ❤️
