Hi everyone. My hobby is to write novels and screenplays. I am a fan of the classic 70's and early 80's anti hero films such as Scarface, Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, Taxi Driver, The Godfather, Carrie, And Justice For All, and the Godfather. I wrote my own version of that kind of story. If you are interested in reading something like that perhaps you would like to check out my book. It is available on Barnes and Noble and Amazon.com. I have provided the link to Barnes and Noble. If you decide to read it let me know what you thought of it. I would like to hear your opinions. Thank you for reading my message.

Welcome and enjoy the boards

The Mafia Is Not Primarily An Organisation Of Murderers.
First And Foremost,The Mafia Is Made Up Of Thieves.
It Is Driven By Greed And Controlled By Fear.

Between The Law And The Mafia, The Law Is Not The Most To Be Feared

Any online British link? I'd really like to read it.

Congratulations, by the way; that would be a massive accomplishment, for me.

Congratulations. I think I'm going to have to order myself a copy.

I hope to be a published writer at some point down the line, so I can imagine this must be a major accomplishment for yourself.

"Somebody told me when the bomb hits, everybody in a two mile radius will be instantly sublimated, but if you lay face down on the ground for some time, avoiding the residual ripples of heat, you might survive, permanently fucked up and twisted like you're always underwater refracted. But if you do go gas, there's nothing you can do if the air that was once you is mingled and mashed with the kicked up molecules of the enemy's former body. Big-kid-tested, motherf--ker approved."

Thank you all very much for your positive feedback. I appreciate it very much. Extra thanks to long lost corleone for saying you would purchase a copy of my novel. That means a lot to a young new artist like myself.

Again thanks a lot everyone.

Olivant, I did get your message. My advice to you would be to beleive in yourself. When you are a new artist you must beleive in yourself because nobody else will. Do some research on the internet, there are some publishers who will publish a new unknown artist. Also you might want to convert one of your novels into a screenplay. Because if you do that you can have it professionally reviewed. I did that. There critique helps and if forces you to do more rewrites. You also might do well in a screenplay contest and get the attention of a producer. I am trying to do that.
Thanks Olivant for your positive feedback. I wish you the best in your writing career.
