Is that headline too subtle?

Well, no one would say it’s click bait, and I appreciate the helping hand. (Saying “please” might have been nice, but OK.)

This was the work of the good folks at Philadelphia’s favorite weekly, a.k.a. Philadelphia Weekly, where I am happy to be a contributor.

The rest of the blurb said Press Card is my first novel, after 60 years of writing journalistic nonfiction, mostly for the Daily News.

The central character, Claude Shelby, is a political reporter for a Philadelphia tabloid called the Free Press, which might put some people in mind of the Daily News. The book is fast-paced, funny, suspenseful and one of the most interesting things I have ever written. There is more about the book, and how to order, at the website https://www.presscardthebook.com

It’s available as an ebook ($9.99), from Amazon ($15), or an autographed copy from me ($20).

Please buy the book. 🙂
