SCAM A-LAMA DING DONG: A Funny Noir Rock Star Rip-Off by Jinx James
SCAM A-LAMA DING DONG: A Funny Noir Rock Star Rip-Off by Jinx James
Slide into the sleazy side of Show Biz, the dodgy side, in this fast paced Noir mash up of Dark Comedy, Crime and Classic Rock. When you’ve been a Rock Star as long as Marc Charles, you’ve seen a few Scams in your time, but never one quite like this. Cory, the dude from California isn’t just after Marc’s rock star mansion. He wants the lot, and with his corporation’s scumbag shakedown scheme he aims to get it.
To Marc it smacks of an old-time SCAM A-LAMA DING DONG rip-off. “Us Rock ’n Rollers have been getting scammed and ripped off ever since they invented shiny suits and electric guitars,” Marc tells his pal Howie.
But Rock Stars don’t like being messed with, especially when their career is at stake and time is running out. Marc fights back, and boy, can he play dirty too! With the brains of his sidekick moneyman Howie, and Marc’s own charisma and front, he sets out to turn the tables on the “Pay-to-Play” scammers. Marc’s tough-as-nails Agent, the ever-horny Felicity, is right in the line of fire, and there’s a new girl too, Samira, aka Sam. But she’s from a different age. This alluring heartbreaker isn’t taking any of that Rock Dinosaur crap Marc tries to lay on her.
As he battles Cory, Marc keeps up the hi-jinks like any red-blooded rock star: Sex in a cupboard, duets with a Cowboy movie-star, a déjà vu jig-a-jig with his knife-throwing ex-wife – it’s all here, along with a Classic Rock and Soul soundtrack. That and some kinky KO’s from Morgana, a crazy Bad-Girl TV star, a little hot guitar, plus an absolute nutcracker of a plot twist at the end.

Author Bio:
Humorous crime fiction author Jinx James was born in the UK and lives in Australia. He has worked in music, advertising, and TV comedy. Today Jinx James writes comedy crime.
He says:
I used to have a job where I’d spend weeks away from home with spare time on my hands – so I started to write for my own amusement. I’ve always had a wicked sense of humour, and anything oddball, quirky or absurd really appealed to me, especially comedy and crime wrapped up with Classic Rock and Soul, and even a murder or two. I call it Noir Ha-Ha. I hope we’re on the same wavelength.
My comedy crime idol is Carl Hiaasen.

we can truly become.
Learn to both sense and listen to the intuitive impulses of the inner voice that longs
to be heard.

age or where you live, what matters is having the will to let go of what is not working for

Author Bio:
Don Campbell is an entrepreneur and artist specializing in portrait and figurative sculptures. His medium of choice is clay. “A storyteller in clay” is how he describes himself, with each sculpture telling as many stories as there are people who cast their gaze.
Don’s first experience in sculpting was in his high school art class. He created two sculptures – an abstract tree in plaster and an abstract form in metal and plexiglass. Don’s passion and talent for sculpting were instantly obvious, but he chose to follow a different path in life. Don didn’t want to be a starving artist and thought graphic design would be the better career move. 20 years would pass before he returned to sculpting.
Don worked as a graphic designer for several companies in his native Toronto. He was eventually lured to the U.S. to assume an art director role and freelanced for several advertising agencies. Don eventually launched his own agency, which he has been running for more than 30 years.
Today, Don is sculpting more than ever, developing his own process for finding and expressing creativity through four levels of listening. Inspired by Otto Scharmer’s Theory U. Don’s process allows him to be more present and mindful, so he can enter a place where creativity can be born and take shape – literally. Through writing, teaching and speaking engagements, Don is eager to share this process with both artists and non-artists. He firmly believes that everyone is creative and can learn to express their unque inner voice that wants to be heard.
“There is paradox in sculpting human forms. From one perspective, they seem motionless, frozen in time, locked in an unfinished gesture or conversation. To me, they are as alive as anything in the universe. An unfinished story is emanating from each sculpture, engaging the observer’s imagination. My art is ripe for the observer’s glance, giving birth to a dance unique to each individual.”
Art is a catalyst for expansion, growth, and the realization of our connection to all. Nothing is static. All things are in motion, each expressing itself from its innermost core. I sculpt to communicate, to share, to expand consciousness and to feel connected to the flow and rhythm of life unfolding through me. I create out of joy and connection to the vast sea of endless potential, where judgment and fear are relics of the past, discarded in exchange for true freedom.”

Author Bio:
Rachel is an author who likes to write about where science and spirituality intersect. She was born in Southern California and has always had a passion for making the world a better place. The death of her father at age 4, and the resilience of her mom to raise three strong-willed children on her own has shaped Rachel to become a fierce advocate on the path of transforming pain to power. After a tumultuous adolescence of trauma, addiction and conflict, she was sent to live in the wilderness of Utah to find peace. Sitting there with other struggling youth from around the country made her realize the common bond of the human experience. It was then that she decided that bringing people together to collectively rise through transmuting our suffering was her passion. Seeking a culture of gratitude and humility, she moved to Cambodia in order to start a non-profit organization that could bring people together for the common good of all involved–The Red Road Foundation. Since 2015, the organization has provided free education in the countryside, initiated many recycling projects, and has been creating sustainable social enterprises that involve people coming together from all over the world. Rachel wholeheartedly believes in the power of community and unity in order for us to reach new levels of consciousness where we can collectively thrive. She is incredibly grateful to be able to share her passions with the hopes of humanity realizing their true power and aligning with the Divine truths of our Universe.

Author Bio:
Lois Petren, author of the Lulu and Lainey and Five Enchanted Mermaids series of children’s picture books, became an author by chance when she realized she had a story to tell. Creative inspiration occurred during 2015 when, after returning from a family vacation, Lois discovered that she had left behind a ball of yarn she needed to complete a knitting project. This became the inspiration for writing “Lulu and Lainey … a French Yarn,” which is the first book in the Lulu and Lainey series. Five additional books followed.
In 2018 in collaboration with LifeMadeSimple, LLC, Lois started writing books about the Five Enchanted Mermaids, a diverse group of mermaids with magical powers who help children to develop a growth mindset and learn developmental skills.
