Bob McCarty Writes

Several months ago, I began making pre-publication installments of my book, SCRATCH OFF, available to readers of this blog. A suspense-fiction thriller seemingly drawn from modern-day headlines, SCRATCH OFF has already generated positive online reviews in advance of its anticipated publication this fall:

“So well done that I lost track that this is fiction. Having lost a son while he served in the Navy, my heart was sensitive to the father. Good writing.” — Ron E.

“I think your book will touch a few nerves. Better your book do it, than another 9/11.” — Mike B.

“You have an extraordinary piece of work in the making here, I look forward to reading your finished work!” — Dustin B.

A change of pace from my usual writings on humor, politics, culture and capitalism, SCRATCH OFF is a work of fiction — ten online installments to date — that draws from my background as an Air Force officer as well as from more than two decades of experience in the worlds of politics, public relations and business. Check it out for yourself!

Links to the first ten online installments of SCRATCH OFF appear below. If you like what you read, please tell others about it and point them to this blog.
