Read This Now! Tricksters, Crackers and Gods!



Howdy, Folks n’ Kin!


This here’s Judd Jugmonger, but I reckon y’all knew that. It’s been awhile since I posted on this here blog on account I’ve been busy goin’ ‘round and lookin’ at this and that and not much else. That’s the way we do it in Miami! I’ve been gettin’ lotsa idears fer all sorts of this, that and the other. Mainly, I’ve been takin’ it easy. Y’all know how it is. But, them holidays’ seasonal times is here! Time fer that good ole holiday marketin’ spirit on account Thanksgivin’ and Black Friday is just around corner! That’s right, so it’s time to git cookin’ again before we all gotsta make them resolutionals what we’s just gonna break anyway. Ain’t that the truth!


So here’s the Jugmongers news whats good fer all y’all to follow up on and to put your seasonal spendin’ money where it’s good at! I’s in another one of them novels what was written by my good friend, Jay Leonard Schwartz—with lotsa input from me, yours truly, Judd Jugmonger!


The book is called, Tricksters, Crackers, and Gods: Roy and Judd’s Inferno and Florida Odyssey, and it’s based on a true story ‘bout what happened to me so I know it’s the truth! When I tell y’all I git around, you know I ain’t just whistlin’ Dixie! Of course, there’s some other folks in the book, too, and y’all can read ‘bout them, as well—on account of readin’ is fundermental to all y’all’s brains! 

In this tale, me and this feller Roy go all over creation—that means to Hell n’ back—to save Florida and us all from the climate crisis and a nuclear catastrophical—that’s like an apocalypitical, a category 6 hurricane, and and the Big Bang all rolled into one! That all spells a watery doom fer Florida—the big kaboom! 

I tell y’all what—it’s a big story and in it I met lotsa good folk, like Orpheus and Persephone, what I organized a bluegrass hootenanny with not far from the river Styx. Of course, we also met some other not-too-nice Greek folks like Hades, Hermes, Amphitrite, Proctos, and them three ornery judges, Minos, Aeacus, and Rhadamanthus what I reckon I got under them’s dander some. Heck, even that old Devil managed to horn in on the action, just to protect his interest down there where it’s hotter than a parkin’ lot at the Disney World in July. That’s what it is if'n y’all fall down a hole and end up in them Underworld parts, just like me and Roy! 

When I got back from that adventure down yonder, I told Jay my story, and he wrote it all down. Then, his pals at Dada Bloq went ahead and published it all, just like them other books what’s I’m in, O Little Central Florida Town Of Florida Town Of Bedlam and Climate Riot

Tricksters, Crackers & Gods

I also told Jay another story ‘bout another time I had to save the world—again! That thar’s a doozy of a tale what I had with a real live tree-humpin’ Florida Skunk Ape, some talkin’ iguanas (what didn’t git barbecued none, even though we was in Wepesiwa Beach, Florida) and even some visitors from the outer space! Y’all will havta wait some fer that book to come out, but meanwhile y’all can enjoy the Tricksters, Crackers and Gods book. And, the best part is what if'n y’all buy that book I can git me a cut which is good on account I need to git me over to the studio to record some new music fer y’all! 

Somethin’ else I wanted to say was why them folks over at Dada Bloq publishin’ decided to name the book, Tricksters, Crackers and Gods. I done scratched my head over that one some on account I wasn’t sure none if'n that thar feller Roy was a trickster or what. Truth be told, I thought he was just one of them anti-social too-much-fiber-in-my-diet blocked-up types—y’all know how they is. The “Crackers” in the title ain’t the eatin’ kind! That thar’s me! I ain’t no redneck none; I’m just a honest to good Florida Cracker. That’s how it is. As fer them “Gods” in the title, well, this here book ain’t no Bible none … even though that thar Devil shows his horny face in the story. Jolene, my sweety deety, says its on account cause some of them Greek folks in the tale gots the same names as them ancient Greek gods in what they call the mythology from them olden days. But, I can tell y’all one thing fer sure what’s this book ain’t no history lesson none! I reckon y’all havta ask the publisher and them historical folk, like Mr. Webster and Mr. Oxford.

So that’s it fer me fer now! All y'all are on the internet anyway, so git on over to the Amazon website and git yourselves a bunch of them books—and go and tell all y’all’s friends and kinfolk that Judd Jugmonger says fer them to do the same!

Seasonal Greetings and Happy Holiday to y’all! I sure do hope Santy Claus brings all y’all lots of them books!
