Met with old pal and SPI author Frankie Larson at the Anchor Bar today. Frank is an old Sourdough from Alaska who wrote two books for Savage Press. He self published the first book, Jackpine Savages, or Skinny Dipping for Fun and Profit, and then spun it off to Savage Press for sales and distribution. JPS is riotiously funny if you're from Iron River, Wisconsin and pretty dang funny if you're from anywhere else. His second book, Baloney on Wry is a collection of his best newspaper columns from Alaska and Tennessee and is also pretty dang funny. I dare you to buy one or "tuther" and not LOL at least once when reading it.
