The website of the greatest pulp fiction writer who ever lived
Hack is obsessed with the TV show Seinfeld but was so disappointed by the farewell episode that he novelized one of his own. It’s a typical Hack Werker story so saturated with gratuitous sex and violence that it’s virtually unreadable. The one good thing about it is that it’s so bad that it makes you appreciate how good the finale of Seinfeld actually was by comparison.
When I had my heart attack, I was rushed to the hospital and placed on a cot in a tiny room where I was CERTAIN that I was about to die. The male nurse who was there sat on a chair next to the cot and wordlessly held my hand. It was great comfort.Happy National Nurses Day. You all have a special place reserved for you in heaven.
Hack used to go down to Venice Beach and watch pretty girls play Volleyball until they got creeped out and told him to get the hell out of there. So he went home and wrote this book instead. It’s very angry.
It’s Wordsmith Day, a holiday to celebrate the weavers of words, and Hack felt that was the perfect time to lend his support to the Writers Guild of America strike.
Hack joined the WGA in 1957 when he was hired to write additional dialogue for the cult classic “Teen Jailbait in Women’s Prison.” He was kicked out five years later for trying to form an ultra left-wing splinter union because he didn’t think the WGA’s tactics were violent enough. But he’s always been a supporter of collective bargaining and he knows that the provisions the union is asking for are fair and reasonable. Right will prevail.
Don’t look for Hack on any picket lines because he’s always far too hungover to get out of bed before 3:00 in the afternoon. But this novel is his means of saying that he’s behind the WGA all the way.
Happy Global Love Day!
