Georgette Kaplan was born in Shirebrook, Derbyshire, to Eileen, a dancer, and Barry, a street merchant and lounge singer. She was a Diver on the British National Diving Team and finished twelfth in the World Championships in 1992. She has also been a fashion model, black market salesman and finally of course, actor. She received the audition for her debut role as Bacon in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998) through French Connection, for whom she was modeling. They became a major investor in the film and introduced her to Guy Ritchie, who invited her to audition for a part in the film by challenging her to impersonate an illegal street vendor and convince him to purchase fake jewelry.

Cigarettes? Newsletter? Substack?

Seems like every post of advice for aspiring authors is that they should have a newsletter, so does that sound like a good idea? I don't know how many followers I have, much less how many of them are bots, and this isn't exactly a blogging platform. Tumblr's dead, Twitter's... X. So if anyone's going to hear what I think about movies, it might as well be in e-mail.

Old Habits by Ben Trebilcook
Old Habits
by Ben Trebilcook (Goodreads Author)
Rate this book
Clear rating
Let's not bury the lede: Old Habits is a spec script, or really fanfic, for a last Die Hard movie. Since that's not happening, the screenwriter "filed off the serial numbers" and turned his "Die Hard" story into an original work of fiction.

There's no

Sheba by Orrie Hitt
Rate this book
Clear rating
2.5 stars. Hitt does a decent job of getting into the skin of this woman who comes to hate being sexualized by every man she comes across (pretty thoughtful theory of mind for 1959) but he can't seem to figure out how to wrap this up or make a meal o ...more

Longarm and the Vigilantes by Tabor Evans
Rate this book

A pretty mediocre run-through for Longarm. Right off the bat, there's an odd bit where he's telling his latest conquest that he needs to end his three-day vacation early because his boss has called him back to work as a US Marshall, but then (do-ho-h ...more

Fast One by Paul Cain

Props to the copy editors. The reissue of this Depression-era gangster pulp really makes it sound like this is some pre-Code version of the Punisher, a punk rock Raymond Chandler that was too damn crazy for even the hipsters of the time. The truth is ...more

Well, it has its heart in the right place, but it just doesn't manage to accomplish much. There's copious amounts of sex and violence, but all described in a limp, cack-handed sort of way. There's really only so much karate moves or sex acts you can ...more

Ten Grand by George G. Gilman

This one's a bit scattershot. After the ending of the first book positioned Edge as the town sheriff, he's nearly immediately removed from that little status quo when a bank robbery also manages to get his stash of money. He goes after the thieves, w ...more

Slocum and the Three Wives by Jake Logan
Rate this book
Clear rating
No book with an incestuous, S&M obsessed serial killer for a villain should be this boring.

Sequelizing Slocum And The Irish Lass, this 90s book has Slocum purely in Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman mode. I just... I'm struggling to express my disappointment

Slocum in Paradise by Jake Logan
Rate this book
Clear rating
Another rote 90s offering. Slocum rides into a town run by a local despot, who quickly has him ensnared in wage slavery (you'd think after 200 books, he'd know better). The whole being railroaded by injustice things offers some potential, but Slocum ...more

“In ten years, I'll fight for you. And in twenty years, I'll fight for you. At the end of time, I'll fight for you. Because you don't make me happy. You are my happiness. And I think I'm yours.”
Georgette Kaplan, Scissor Link

“We were back over on the East Side, at a little, smoky black juke joint called the Congo Bongo Club, having a beer. Well, Leonard was having a beer. I was having a nonalcoholic beer. The place served them, but they seemed embarrassed about it. The bartender, who was also the waiter, kinda slunk over and put it on the table like a patient giving a pretty nurse a urine sample.”
Joe R. Lansdale, Mucho Mojo
