http://happyamericaliterature.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
THE POSITIVE MESSAGE OF NEW AMERICAN ART AND LITERATURE. Wednesday, December 18, 2013. The New ULA Part I. The new Underground Literary Alliance will run on fanatical commitment.

We’d need to be like an order of medieval knights, eager for cultural crusade. Knights for the renewal of art. Posted by Karl Wenclas. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Place for Exciting New Mystery Fiction. Current Offering: "The Tower.". Sunday, March 4, 2012. Tychon had missed the protest, happily. It’d been handled satisfactorily, from what he’d heard and seen on TV. It’s why one employed underlings. He would meet his date at the concert hall: Alexandra, an attractive Polish-descent blonde age 35 who made herself available for Arthur Tychon’s occasional nights out, as well as for other things. As the limousine efficiently pulled up outside the monstro...Their b...

THE POSITIVE MESSAGE OF NEW AMERICAN ART AND LITERATURE. Friday, June 20, 2014. For the moment I’m putting on hold ideas of restarting the Underground Literary Alliance.

Or at least, I won’t oppose such endeavors. Posted by Karl Wenclas. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Walking very straight, they navigate through the glossy tables and seat themselves with the plutocratic lunatic. A waitress appears instantly. Get me your best beer, your best salad, best steak, rare, buried in onions, then your largest, most expensive dessert. The best of everything! The gang boss throws at him.

A man observing at the edge of the crowd nodded his head and began walking toward his car.

The Place for Exciting New Mystery Fiction. Current Offering: "The Tower.". Thursday, March 27, 2008. When Boss Eggers enters the restaurant, African friend at his side- one step behind- he reminds The Man in the Black Hat of an Imperial Roman with his curly hair and arrogant profile outlined against the room's sunny beams of light.
