Early blurbs from editors:

White Knuckles is a high-concept, comic novel full of quirky, charming characters who live by the rules of small-town American gumption. Tom Robbins meets Seinfeld’s "Master of My Domain". 


It’s the story of Trevor, a mayor of the fiercely independent town of Hawk’s Crossing about to lose its town charter due to debts. Trevor must save the town, so against all odds, he enters the town in an outrageous national contest about abstaining. 

I wrote White Knuckles as a smart, fun entertainment to help us escape these anxious times.  White Knuckles is the story of community, family, grief & belief, and desire & love.   

"The characters are really well-fleshed out ... and they all shine through! 
I should have been taking shots every time there was a new innuendo."

"What is it with you and all this praying?” asked Trevor.
 “It can’t hurt, and it might help,” said his brother Clarence.

 “What are you praying for?”
 “I never pray for anything specific. Jesus isn’t Santa Claus.”
 “Santa Claus isn’t even Santa Claus,” said Trevor.   

 "I’m praying that something wonderful happens so that Father re-discovers   the happiness he had with Mother.”

 “I like that. Can I steal your prayer?”
 “Take two. They’re free.”​
