"Burner" by M.C. Mars {First Chapter & Giveaway - Ends 10/24}
Welcome to My Cozie Corner's stop on the
"Burner" book tour.
This tour is brought to you by Innovative Book Tours.
First Chapter:
1. Advertising
Jason Teal (AKA J-Keen Deprez2) decided to quit turntablism, at least in the short term, and spend more time at home with his girlfriend and eighteen-month old daughter. As he approached the pivotal age of thirty, a heightened sense of responsibility blended with a strong dose of anxiety about his future lead him to this decision. He did however continue to produce a close-knit group of rappers, diabolically clever lyricists whose careers he hoped to aid. But in the digital era, with legions of talented producers competing for ninety-nine cent downloads, making a living of his production skills became impossible. He needed live gigs to supplement his studio work, and that took him away from his family, and even with weekly gigs, being a hip-hop deejay in San Francisco was far from lucrative.
Instead he invested his hopes and dreams in a strange, psychedelic, hip-hop symphony inspired by a mishmash of American musical genius. “Imagine Philip Glass teaming up with RZA and Jimi Hendrix—and that should give you a pretty good idea how my symphony sounds. I just need more time to work on it,” Jason said, passing a bowl of fresh strawberries across the table to his girlfriend.
“And meanwhile, what? I’m supposed to dance twice as much to support the three of us?” His girlfriend, Alicia, a mother, a full-time student, and an exotic dancer, wasn’t havin’ it.
“You’re delusional, baby.”
