Quote of the day--from my novella Black Rice--
Black Rice clenched his fists and got up rapidly from his chair, determined to kill his father. "You're the one who's the son of a bitch, married to the bottle!" His father laughed derisively, and lunged at him, but he was too drunk for his left hook to land accurately on Black Rice's chin. Black Rice dodged and he punched air. His mother ran between them and hugged Black Rice protectively. From behind her huge bulk, looking over her shoulder, Black Rice told both of them, "That's it. I'm leaving. I'm damn tired of both of you. I'm not eating your rice a minute more than I need to. I'm joining the army."
That sobered them both up.
You may buy Black Rice on Amazon.
