Make a buck, make a buck. I tell some mook about this weird case I took on and what does he do? Turns it into some goofy novel and makes the whole thing sound more fantastic than it really was. I mean, really, it sounds like I'm some kind of tin-foil hat wearing wacko instead of just teaming up with one.
Here I am, knocking myself out to locate Cupid who's gone missing and where does the record of my case end up? In THE POLICE GAZETTE? TRUE CRIME? THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER? Noooo. They lump it in with a bunch of loooove stories! Can you believe it? They just include my caper, now entitled "Cupid is as Cupid Does" in a book called "Love and Other Distractions." Sure, it's nice to be included with a group of well-regarded Hollywood-based writers. And, okay, all the proceeds going to charity is a noble cause, but man, are all the other P.I.s going to make fun of me now.
Well, this is news; the story of one of my cases is being given away! I don't know how they'll make any money doing that! But on Nov. 23 & 24, "Nick Flebber Saves Christmas," er, I mean "Lost Claus" is available for free download over at that Amazon.com internet book store. You need to check it out!
