Book excerpt: From growing up in a Canadian Mountie household to writing Hollywood screenplays, debut short story writer Rick Butler has mined his real-life experiences for THE MOUNTIE IN THE HOUSE AND OTHER STORIES. "Butler makes delightful debut with short stories... great entertainment, with distinctive characters and tales... Butler has created a fine collection of memorable characters and tales. Let’s hope we hear more from this delightful storyteller soon," writes Jodi Delong in The Chronicle Herald (Halifax). "These are lively, insightful and highly entertaining stories from a very fine writer with talent to burn," says Leo Furey, author of The Long Run. "Prime reading for lovers of vivid, fast-paced fiction." Among the 14 quirky, often-humorous tales, a seven-year-old boy watches his Mountie father pursue justice in their small town. A Venice Beach murder victim pursues her killer from the other side. An escaped convict and a young screenwriter light out for old Mexico in pursuit of a hit movie. A disgruntled wedding guest disrupts a million dollar ceremony. A visiting student falls in with a rollicking cast of eccentrics in Brighton, UK. A screenwriter teams with Michael Jackson to pitch a movie plot to the biggest studios... "Rick Butler's short story collection is the ideal travel companion," says Chip Conley, author of Emotional Equations and Peak.
