F*ck It! It's not gratuitous.

Stay-tuned for a Goodreads Giveaway for signed copies of TIGER DRIVE!

Now is a good time to share that Tiger Drive's character, WJ, a motorcycle gang member, is vulgar. If you frown upon foul language, it's possible this book is not for you, and for that, I’m sorry. However, reviewers have indicated that WJ's use of the f-bomb seems genuine rather than gratuitous.

Here's an excerpt from a newsletter I wrote in 2018 when I released the novel:

Drug dealing, biker gang WJ in Tiger Drive is a realistic character and says f*ck as much as he wants. I rarely swear or use the F-word, but as I was writing Tiger Drive, WJ kept dropping F-bombs all over the place like F-ing cigarette butts.

No kidding, during the first draft, I was so embarrassed by WJ’s potty mouth, I said out loud, “You can’t write that. He can’t keep saying that!”

But F*ck it! A drug dealer, biker gang member like WJ would swear. So, I let him.

Is bad language a deal-breaker for you?
