Thanks Movie Man. I am not sure where it will go from here, I guess it will come to me somehow. It started around 2am one sleepless night as I twittered it sentence by sentence on my cell phone…

Apropo, check out this graphical novel collaboration: http://huzzahnoir.blogspot.com/. I have asked to use one of their plates for a post on their project.

Nice – reminds me of a mid-60s Dylan song with all the allusions, or else one of those kid’s books or cartoons where the character wanders from fairy tale to fairy tale. As someone who’s always loved works as part of a larger canon as much as (sometimes even more than) works in and of themselves) I dig it…looking forward to where it goes from now. (By the way, there’s a character meme circulating the web…you should do a noir reading of such).

Tks Sam. Just a bit of fun – a noir mashup really. I’ll see where it goes…

I just realized after reading this twice that this is another one of your “creative” pieces, a prose consideration of a typical noir moment. You’ve set up the mise en scene quite persuasively here and with much elan.

I never forgot the Studebaker I owned in my early 20′s. I forgot to put oil in it for a while and the motor “ceased.” God, I was reckless in those days.

Great piece of atmospheric writing.
