Greetings!
Our latest Fight Card entry has just hit the
virtual bookshelves…Bridgeport Brawler is from Dave White writing as Jack
Tunney. The cover is by our man down under, David Foster, and the ad banners

FIGHT CARD: BRIDGEPORT BRAWLER
Chicago, 1953…Patrick ‘The Hammer’ White – the
Bridgeport Brawler – is on top of the world. He is the current heavyweight
champion confidently getting ready to defend his crown. All the training from
father Tim at St Vincent’s orphanage has come full circle, and Pat isn’t
figuring on being toppled from the championship mountain anytime soon.
Having seen his shares of ups-and-downs, Pat
believes the ‘downs’ are behind him. However, he has forgotten boxing’s
dark side. When mob boss Carmen Amello squeezes Pat’s trainer into forcing the
champ to take a dive, the ‘downs’ come back with a vengeance.
In the aftermath of disaster, with only bad
choices in front of him, the Bridgeport Brawler is going to have to dig deep if
he is ever going to hammer his way back to the top…
Bridgeport Brawler is another two-fisted Fight
Card tale …
A copy of the novella and its cover are attached
for your perusal. Any mentions on your blogs and social networking sites
are always appreciated.
Our second Fight Card charity anthology, Battling
Mahoney and Other Stories, is coming together nicely for an August
publication. This time out its 15 rounds of fight fiction to aid the
family of the late Jory Sherman.
Fight Card team member Jeremy L.C. Jones has
arranged for Fight Card to be the focus of a college marketing project turning
four marketing hungry whiz kids loose on trying to find ways to expand Fight
Card’s sales and audience. Jeremy and I had our first meeting with the
group today and I am excited to see their progress over the next few weeks.
I have been in touch with those of you who have
not seen your books arrive in paperback yet. As you know, we are making
every effort to put the finishing touches on the files and covers needed for
you to upload on CreateSpace. As always a signed copy for myself and the
cover artist are always appreciated.
Next month, a wrestling tale – Fight Card: Push –
From Nathan Walpow writing as Jack Tunney…
Until then…Keep Punching
Paul
