As long as he was keepin' a private eye on me I'd buy him a round. I'm a sucker for a tender tough guy:<br /><br />"‘Your ghosts can still find you when you’re inside a bottle.’ <br /><br />‘When I put the bottle inside me I can’t find them."<br /><br />Superb style, tone, swagger and snappy one-liners here, there and half past everywhere. But more, much more than this . . . you did it Your way - You named your slick dick and now he's MEMORABLY, the real deal. You read your fans. They want more.<br /><br />~ Joyed I am to have watched this whole creation process take place. I hereby request the first inscribed book. Well - maybe the 4th after your lovely wife, Mum and Dad's copy and that sister Madeline wonderin' who the Kate broad was.<br /><br />All successes to you out of the shadows of Noir. <br /><br />~ Absolutely*KateKate Pilarcik ~ absolutelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12430278736281847787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6243178661707887834.post-521328085151750412011-11-05T23:03:42.406-04:002011-11-05T23:03:42.406-04:00I think you have made a great first attempt at noi...I think you have made a great first attempt at noir!

Crazily enough, it's never occured to me that broads are always thin before - great paragraph that one. And the ending is as sharp as the knife in the back.
