The Forest Dark – 1984 Olympic Bench in Griffith Park

IMG_0786 Someone dropped this off under some foliage on a hilly road in Griffith Park in Los Angeles. It’s a bench from the 1984 Summer Olympics – you can tell by looking at the emblematic star and the Olympic rings on the side of the bench. (See closeup below.)

I used this real-life location for the introduction and first scene with my character Louis Ronald Reagan White in my novel “The Forest Dark,” coming this May.

Teaser Promo Copy for “The Forest Dark”

IMG_0614Here’s my first attempt at some (like, 100 words) teaser marketing copy for my new novel, The Forest Dark:

“The Forest Dark” is a quirky, family-of-choice drama about Eden and Noah, middle-aged friends who must find a way to reconcile their unresolved past with an unexpectedly strange present.

In 1984, conservative co-ed Eden von Eiff befriends young gay man Noah Baldock during L.A.’s frenetic Summer Olympic Games. Becoming fast and intimate, Noah offers Eden a solution to an enormous problem — which she can’t, in the end, accept.

Twenty-five years later, these two boomers struggle to come to grips with the choices they made long ago. They must navigate not only a troubled economy and professional failure, but also control a looming and violent threat to their future.

So, the idea is to entice without giving the whole plot away. I wonder if it’s too vague? What does anyone think? Also, how weird does a story have to be called “quirky?” I don’t want anyone to think it’s about, for instance, anyone named Zooey.

Need some fancy make-up at 4 a.m.? Me too. Here’s where.

new Walgreens in Hollywood

Loved to hear that L.A., specifically Hollywood (at the iconic corner of Sunset & Vine) has a new and apparently very fancy Walgreens. Not just any drugstore, they’ve got a juice bar, a coffee bar, fancy schmantzy liquor department (off-limits to some of us) and a frozen yogurt stop.

Best of all, though, is the Eyebrow Bar! I for one, could sure use some Walgreen’s-style help for those increasingly pesky caterpillars that hang out over my eyes. I wish the drugstore lots of luck, certainly better luck than Borders had in that location.

Louie loves that and I love that. If everything goes according to plan, the novel should come out in the next couple of months.

More from Forest Dark – introducing Louis Ronald Reagan White

Here’s a little bit more from my novel-in-progress, The Forest Dark. In the second part of the book, which takes place in 2009, I introduce Louie, who is the son of one of the characters we followed in the first part of the book, which takes place in 1984. Meet Louis Ronald Reagan White.

 

Well dude, Noah saves the day once more, Louie thought.

When he’d opened the box with the knife in it at his birthday party in April, it had all seemed a little dramatic.

“Don’t laugh,” Noah’d said, when Louie tried the switchblade’s spring release for the first time. “I’d be happier if you carried a gun.”

They’d all had a good chuckle at that. Maybe a gun wasn’t such a bad idea after all, though the knife seemed to work pretty well for today’s asshole in the park.

Zeke! Where are you, man? I’m hungry.

As soon as he got to the bottom of the hill, Louie’s mobile signal returned and he’d called Zeke Montero. He would pick Louie up, they would go to the Brite Spot on Sunset, like they almost always did on Tuesdays for the meatloaf.

Louie didn’t know what was in it and didn’t care much. It tasted fine and it was their breakfast.

He didn’t have to wait long for Zeke, who still drove the chill red Pontiac Grand Prix he’d fixed up in high school and tried to perfect while at Los Angeles City College. As short and thick as Louie was deceptively tall and lean, Zeke had been best friend to Louie since they were in fifth grade without interruption except for one teenage summer when the Monteros stayed with their relatives on Lake Chapala.

Louis thought he’d never see Zeke again. But there he was, first day of school, hair slicked back with Brilliantine, like no time had passed at all. Continue reading
