J.P. Linde
Writer
Picture
​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. "

The Gun Barrel

​Welcome back!
 
Trust you are all having a lovely Fall. To tell the truth, reliving the whole Wiley Bowman escapade on jplinde.com nearly took it all out of me. Luckily, a nice writing check came in and I feel a little bit better about this whole writing thing.
 
With that in mind, I think it’s high time we celebrate and clear our little blog pallet of Willy Bowman with one of my signature top five lists. What do you say? You up for it? Great. Then let’s get started.
 
Top Five Hair Products for Thinning and Receding Hair. And, here we go…
 
Eh, maybe I should pick something a little closer to our theme here at jplinde.com. Did you know that we had a theme? I am just not entirely sure of what it is but… Okay, here we go.

Top Five Hairstyles for the late Peter Lawford. 


Picture
Okay, it's not that great a list. Besides, I think there were only two hairstyles for the part time actor and crime scene spoiler (with or without cigarette).

Okay, here we go, I think I got it. TOP JAMES BOND MOVIE GUN BARRELS.
 
5. Believe it or not, the worst gun barrel sequences were by one of my favorite Bonds, Sean Connery. Connery took control of the sequence starting in “Thunderball” and finished up with “Diamonds are Forever.” It may even be the same sequence used for all three films. In my mind, the wobbly back leg spoils it.

Picture
Bob Simmons. The very first gun barrel performer was a stunt man and, while doing a great job, does not really match the stature of the first actor to inhabit role. Besides, it appears he is shooting up and away from the opposing weapon.  So, for all practical purposes, 007 would no longer be alive. ​ 

Picture
​3. Roger Moore (suit only). I enjoy the early Roger Moore gun barrels before he decided to change into a dinner jacket. It is a shame that he never really fired the gun in either sequence as the actor had a habit of closing his eyes whenever he pulled the trigger.
Picture
​2. Daniel Craig. Always the bad ass. From “Casino Royale” to “Spectre,” Craig has delivered a consistent gun barrel that oozed both confidence and a familiarity with his weapon. The best of the lot is his first in the pre title sequence of Casino.
 
Picture
​Drumroll please. And the number one gun barrel sequence, from an Eon Production of a James Bond movie, goes to George Lazenby in “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service!  Mixing it up a bit by going down on one knee, this oft belittled Bond not only happens to appear in the best movie of the entire series but executes the signature sequence with both bravado and swagger, two trademarks of a perfect Bond.
Picture
​Okay, I think our collective pallets have been cleansed. We will be back in the coming weeks with some new news, interviews and maybe even a list or two. I am currently working on a beauty, Top 3 “Pitch Perfect” movies and why. Can’t wait.
