J.P. Linde
Writer

​J.P. Linde’s love of storytelling started unexpectedly when he convinced male classmates of his 6th-grade class that Elizabeth Montgomery, the star of Bewitched, was his girlfriend. Since that fateful day, J.P. Linde has worked as an actor in summer-stock productions of  Our Town, Hot L Baltimore, and The Misanthrope and, thankfully, did not appear nude during any performances of the musical Hair. He was one of the founding members of the Portland, Oregon comedy scene,  establishing the improvisational and sketch comedy group, No Prisoners, and appearing in his own one-person show, Casually Insane. He has worked as a professional stand-up comedian, making his national television debut on Showtime’s Comedy Club Network. His musical Wild Space, A Go Go, had its world premiere in Portland at The Embers in 2011.  He has written three novels. His latest,  The Last Argonaut, will be published in 2024 by Pro Se Productions. He co-wrote the horror cult classic Axe to Grind and has worked with some of the leading producers in film and television.
From J.P. Linde Media and El Dorado Press:

A desperate Wyatt Earp pursues Jack London, a boy, and a
grizzled mountain man in a race for a legendary gold mine


Fool's Gold 

The new novel from J.P. Linde
Picture
"Not only is J.P. Linde's FOOL's GOLD a barn burner of a snow western adventure tale, it's also a love story. Linde clearly loves his genre, loves creating within it and loves to keep his readers on the edge of their seat."    Richard Melo (Author of Happy Talk and Jokerman 8).
Also by J.P. and available on 
Amazon!

"J.P. Linde has successfully delivered a novel that is both a loving homage to the pulp fiction genre and a hilarious satire of it. "

Dirty Birdy

"I thought you were good, Paul, but you're not good. You're just another lying ol' dirty birdie."
 
Well, summer is nearly over, and from one lying ol' dirty birdy to another, I hope you got a heck of a lot of creative things done. I say that because we may be going back into lock-down. Hospitals' beds are filling up, incubators are flying off the shelves, and the rumors of third shot boosters are as commonplace as Q Anon conspiracy theories regarding a stolen election. Oh, and most of the west is in extreme fire season. I swear it’s like being in a Roland Emmerick movie.
 
So, tell me something uplifting, J.P. 
 
Okay, here goes—fun fact for the day. If you have a piece of material out for consideration, and you send a status email, if it has been decided that it's a pass, you'll receive your call or email between 4:45 pm and 6:00 pm. If you do not send a status email, you will hear considerably earlier in the day. Why do I say this? What prove do I have for this wild assumption? I don't have any proof besides checking the timestamps on all my emails (which I do). Let's call it more of a pattern. 
 
Probably not as uplifting as you like, so that I will try again. Do something creative long enough and often enough, and you will get better. Will I be better sufficient to sell something for a lot of money? No. Be grateful for small victories. 
 
As a rule, people like to work with considerate people, listen, work hard, contribute, treat others well, don't throw staplers, and are considered fun to be around. Does that guarantee you a job? No. However, if you do get or have a job, they may very well remember you in the future.
 
Never sell yourself short. Oh, and never let them see you sweat and don't draw upon and inside straight and when playing Blackjack, hit on nine and below and stay on 11. 
 
As a side note, I got a gig, so my blogs will most likely tend to be shorter for a while. Be prepared as it may go on for a few months. I would tell you more, but I signed an NDA (More on that next week).  So, even though some of the blogs may be shorter, I will still painstakingly choose the very best YouTube videos. After all, I may be a lying, dirty birdy, but I am not a monster.
