Not sure it existed exactly, but must've been something like it, there were always ads that read "Sand kicked in your face?" or "I was a 98 pound weakling..." Maybe they were just workout books...
I like this writing although I believe it’s a combination of film with verse. It’s expertly - sensitively felt and the felt is acknowledged but my thought is much of this is visual and the dialogue perfect - just the visuals of the descriptive prose are exquisite and maybe should be shown? In film- great story and unusual .
"The Real Men's Guidebook"! Bought from an ad in the back of a comic book. To think I wasted my money on the Sea Monkeys!
I got the sea monkeys - they were a real disappointment! Real Mens Handbook? That sounds great!

Lucid and vivid. Captain and Tennille on the radio clinches it. I'm there with Tim and his issues.
I actually remember liking that song when it came out :-)
Jackie shared with me! Signed me today and just finished Ch. 1 and moving forward, it is sooooo fabulous. You are very talented, this is a bestseller.
Thank you Barbara, so glad you are liking it!
Beautifully written.
Merci beaucoup!

Welcoming with a hint of foreboding...
Finally starting your book! What a treat to get to fly on the wall. : ) Watch out for stranger danger bean bag butts!!
The benefits of 70s hose-able vinyl!
Thank you for sharing your work! I’m looking forward to the next chapters!

Thanks so much for reading, living in LA puts the film in your verse for sure!
A fun story!!!
Glad you are liking it, thanks for reading!
