Title: My First BSP In The New Forum
Post by: Daniel Hatadi on October 15, 2006, 08:44:59 PM
Enjoying the new forum greatly so far. For some unknown reason, it seems to have more of a party-like atmosphere, thankfully without the hangover.

Now to the BSP:

Thanks to Tribe, the snazziest suit-wearer in the crime fiction world, we can now enjoy the fruits of his latest project: Twanging In The Gutters (http://tribe.textdriven.com/flash/category/all-country-twanging-in-the-gutters/).

For the last two weeks of October, Flashing In The Gutters will only be publishing stories that have something to do with a country song. With authors like Lori G. Armstrong, Patrick Shawn Bagley, Patricia Abbott, Stephen Blackmoore, Margaret B. Davidson, and myself, you're sure to be in for a helluva party.

So grab a big old bottle of corn liquor, take your laptop out on the porch and suck down a gallon of all them tasty words.

My story, JESSE'S LUCKY KNIFE (http://tribe.textdriven.com/flash/2006/10/14/twanging-in-the-gutters-jesses-lucky-knife-by-daniel-hatadi/), is based on The Dying Crapshooter's Blues by Blind Willie McTell. It's more of a country blues song than plain country, but hell, life is chaos out on the range.

Hope y'all enjoy it now, cuss n' tarnation dang nab it.

I liked it too, Daniel. I only read the lyrics after reading the story, and that was a neat experience. I felt like I really knew the guy and am now reading a song written about him.
