But then, in a desperate move to get the movie launched, he turns to a notorious local gangster for financing. Things get complicated and dangerous as Rem’s life becomes more dramatic and deadly than the fictional movie he is trying to create.

Jennifer the Sketchbook Girl
I have a new story out, Jennifer the Sketchbook Girl. It's one of my best. If you like The Twilight Zone and/or Amazing Stories, you will enjoy it.
Feeling isolated and lonely during a pandemic quarantine, writer Jimmy Barton throws himself into a new project, a graphic novel called 1987. It is the story of Jennifer, a lost love from his past that never was. As he writes and draws, the focus of his work intensifies and becomes obsessive, until one day, he draws Jennifer into his life for real, straight out of the pages of 1987.
