About "Boogie: A Life With The Devil."

This full length novel grew out of the Five Star short story, "Blackbird: A Young Boy Meets the Devil For the First Time."
It follows the little boy from that first meeting with the devil, all the way through his life... until the surprise end.
Meet "Bill the Blackbird" and "Boogie McCain" and a host of other interesting characters... As the devil never gives up in trying to get Boogie to sign away his soul... in return for fame and fortune... and a few other things as well!

This review is from: Blackbird: A Boy Meets The Devil For the First Time (Kindle Edition)
I've been reading about 70 years and Blackbird is one of those rare nuggets of pure gold in a whole mountain of clay . It plays out like the blues, full of riffs and bass and gravel that spin themselves into a mirror of soul not ashamed to get down and dirty and come up dragging us into a light we refused to open our eyes to before. Don't let the stomp and shuffle and guffaws fool you into thinking it's not about you, you ain't gonna get off that easy. I was in Gadsden Alabama for about three months in 1958, and he's not telling any lies. It was my first experience with deep southern segregationist views. A great morality tale told by a masterful and powerful writer about a very unique character.

When the Postal Service stopped the Mail Trains, They killed Train-Man Brown.

A Top 100 Free for Kindle Story... called "A True Gem... "

Description:

I was only 17 - a white kid green as they come - when I first met Walker Brown. Everybody called him "Train-Man Brown," or just "Train-Man." Not "Trainman" - that was too soft. The emphasis was on "Man." A black man, he had evidently kicked more than a few butts in his lifetime of working in the moving mail cars, and had earned quite of bit of respect along the way. It was assumed he was crazy - but I never believed it, not for a moment.

And he was the only one who would help me, as I struggled to do my best on what some people called "The Gravy Train." The U.S.P.S.

This is his story. Of how he died when the thing he loved most in the world - sorting the mail on a moving train - was taken away from him. Leaving only my memory of him.
