Super happy to have been part of this project, getting my short story "Legal Jeopardy" published by Inkd Publishing. It's about a superhero couple who have to keep their relationship secret from the others in the "Legal League." barnesandnoble.com/w/hidden-โ€ฆ

My cover that looks like it crawled out of a prohibition alley in Ybor City. Now I want the book in your hands. DM me your email address for the mailing list, and Iโ€™ll send you a free PDF of Avenues and Alleyways. Two crime stories and two poems. Thatโ€™s it. You get the book. I get to talk to people who actually want the stories that live off 7th Avenue, in the brick, the barrels, and the places the tour buses skip. #crimefiction #gritlit

In Mexico, death is not a stranger. It is a part of life, always waiting around the corner. We honor it, remember those it has taken, and understand that no amount of money or power can escape it. Narco Tales. Because in a world of unlimited money, death is never far from the table. ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ๐Ÿ’€๐ŸŒน Visit my website at leosilvaauthor.com to order your copy today! @WClingman51809 @EdgeWeaverBooks @robertrarce @jpmeyerlanskytm @fshrum @3Chingones @JoseSalina89299 @Birdnals314 @monicaromero20 @cobostv @VocesconAnnaPau @VictorAvilaTX @donwinslow @ElaineShannonDC

Went to dinner with a friend last night We ordered green eggs and ham The bill: $270 I paid with a crisp $500 bill "Keep the change," I said to the servant My dinner companion gasped He knows I usually tip with a crisp $0 bill, especially when the waiter is so gross and sweaty "Trust me," I said, whispering Moments later, a film crew jumped out of the kitchen "You're on Undercover Boss! The waiter is secretly the billionaire owner of the company!" I knew it all along. To thank me for the generous tip, the billionaire multiplied my money using a secret billionaire alchemy trick, giving me a $500,000 bill The billionaire's name? The Cat in the Hat
