I'll Take The Leap..


We have whatever life is still ahead of us.

Having survived this far, my goals are few, but monumental. Paying larger than ever medical bills. Finishing the remaining book projects on my plate. Making them as available, and accessible, as possible.

Every day is a gift, and I'm paying it forward via literary anarchy. Here's what I have planned for your browsing – and hopefully buying and reading – pleasure in 2016:

OUTSUPERED II: ARRIVAL OF THE OMNITERRESTRIALS

The sequel to 2012's Outsupered, Or I Saved The World And All I Got Was This Cape, finds the few who survived that prior outing in need to once again place their differences on hold, and unite against a common foe! Can a team of mere superheroes defeat a rogue "god" and his minions returned from an eon's exile to reclaim their "ownership" of Earth? Back are Mother Superior, Eagle X, Red Wraith, Mechatrix, Skullduggery, along with non-super, but badass, Agent Angela Michaels and her new partner, manly Matt Jade! You'll also meet Landon Hexen, sorcerer sublime, and his vampiress protégé Lazarra – bringing their macabre powers to aid the battle against humanity's enslavement! Plus… some surprises I just can't divulge here!

THE FUNNIEST GUY IN THE CASKET
Oliver Akers thought he was the worst stand-up comic in Hollywood. That is, until he saw the act of a guy named Joey Lou Dillerbacher… along with the rest of the Dillerbacher showbiz clan. What's worse, they get gigs despite being awful. Gig after gig after gig – they are so under-talented and over-rewarded, they'd piss off the Pope. Worse, Oliver suddenly finds himself on a relentless loop crossing their path! On a multi-state roadtrip yet. With his own career going south fast, Oliver must somehow pull his funny out of freefall to survive, physically and emotionally – especially when he stumbles onto the secret side mission of these horrible, but well-connected, performers, and becomes one of their targets.

Both soon available in paperback or e-reader!

In the meantime, my most recent book is already on the shelf awaiting your good browse.

It may share its title with a number of better-known works, but if you enjoy science fiction mystery with a twist, you ought to give NO EXIT a look.

Journalist Michael Arc mysteriously disappeared in 2003. In the years following, all written and photographic evidence of his existence began to disappear as well. Before he vanished, he was working on the bizarre topic of time travel and certain nefarious forces who may be using it to alter the past and create a new future that favors their evil. Evil like the Allies’ loss of World War II, like a certain thwarted assassination attempt in Dallas, and other historical game-changing events!

The secret files of Michael Arc, once thought lost, have been discovered! Astonishing tales of chrono-chaos; there's historical chicanery, alien agendas, confused scientists, mysterious strangers… even a dinosaur! Read at your own risk…

Wait 'Til You See What Comes Next!


The past year was a boring roller coaster – a ride with few high points. That is, up until I was rushed to the Emergency Room with a potentially fatal infection and two collapsed spinal disks. My first stay in a hospital since I was a 5-year-old having my tonsils out was not the crescendo I'd hoped for 2015.

Having survived, my goals in life are now paying new, larger than ever bills, and finishing the remaining book projects on my plate. Rest assured that neither task has been neglected during my recovery, and the second one may in fact serve as an element of healing.

Every day is a gift, and I'm paying it forward via literary anarchy. Here's what I have planned for your browsing – and hopefully buying and reading – pleasure in 2016:

There's No Debate!


Some call it conspiracy, but we prefer the phrase "substantiated hearsay."

What is it? Well, it's JUST WRONG. No, we're not evading the question, that's the thing's title!

It's defeating socialism where ever it's read. The only capitalism required is a meager cover price that will help an artist meet his medical bills. We're not ashamed, we'll accept donations under the table in exchange for outrageous favors of laughter.

Ethan West just wants what everybody wants who struggles to succeed in Hollywood: a breakthrough, a hit – even a small one – that might change his trajectory in the entertainment rat-race. To be in the loop! One too many bad breaks has him on the verge of throwing in the towel, but a chance encounter with a cult showbiz icon turns his world upside-down. Suddenly Ethan and his tiny, loyal cadre of fellow hopefuls are shanghaied on a movie-making "project" they'll never forget – if they can survive it! At the mercy of a fading, deranged, megalomaniac Hollywood director without a script or a grip on reality. As the production drifts further into surreal chaos, bloodlust and contrivance, Ethan must choose either to follow an insane celebrity to certain doom, or possibly sacrifice his own friends to make it back to civilization – with or without a finished product in the can! Of course, it's a comedy!

Browse JUST WRONG and all the titles in the Fosterical Library. We'll keep your purchase out of the press. Trust us.

Available in paperback or e-reader!

Buy via AmazonSmile, and a portion of your purchase total will become a donation to Elayne Boosler's Tails of Joy animal rescue! Now that's something beyond debate!

It's None Of Our Business


We won't stay silent about what we vote for – your reading enjoyment!

It's your right to do whatever you want behind that voting booth curtain. But when you're tired of reading ballot measures, and want to read something to poll-survey your funny bone, try Rob Foster's EIGHT SHORT PLAYS That Scientifically Disprove The Existence of Love.

Your jaw tightening at the title? Well it is an election year – that jaw is going to get way tighter.

Don't let the book's title rile you too much – a treasure trove of lovely laughter awaits, whether you are a theatrical producer, actor, or just want to read and enjoy the ride. Decide for yourself herein what is proven or debunked about everyone's favorite subject, nude skydiving. Er, uh... no. We meant love.

This saucy collection of rowdy sketch comedy explores that mysterious valley between love, like... and mutual tolerance.

It's the most fun you'll ever have alone, aside from in that voting booth.

Do you belong to a theatre group in need of a quick season filler that's as much fun for the actors and crew as it is for the audience?

Available, of course, in paperback and e-reader format.

Order via AmazonSmile and a portion of your purchase total will be donated to Elayne Boosler's Tails of Joy animal rescue. Now there's something you shouldn't keep secret!
