Pearce is an East Bay native who writes about what he knows: the streets of Oakland and her sister cities, the place he grew up.

Pearce currently resides up on the Lost Coast behind the Redwood Curtain, empty nesting it with his wife and their spoiled fat Egypti...more


I opted to unpublish Gun Sex from Amazon, and post it free as a PDF at Scribd; it retains the book cover, in color. My novels Street Raised and Stagger Bay are doing well, my third The Storm Giants is almost done, and this is giving back to my fans. Enjoy:

Description: Another one that didn't quite make the cut into the Gun Sex anthology. This one, like so many of my early shorts, was based on an actual nightmare about my dad. I haven't dreamt about the old man once since he died -- I'm unsure whether that's a good or a bad thing, but I know my wife doesn't mind that I don't wake her up screaming as much anymore.
WHISPERING DEATH REVISITED (Professional & Technical)
1 chapters   —   updated Mar 13, 2012 11:00am
Description: This little piece is my paean to the finest silenced weapon produced through WW2. It didn't quite make the cut for the Gun Sex anthology, but IMO is worthy to be retained.
