The Reel Deal

If you’ve been to this space before, it’s been a long, long time – that’s because I’ve had more stops and starts than a New Your City bus during rush hour.
But that changes with the offering before you right now.
Why? Because it’s part of Timmy’s Big New Plan. A war on creative anonymity that will see me dishing up big laughs on stand-up comedy stages the world over, brewing up big entertainment on a new Reel and ultimately publishing my books – three so far – and launching them on the fast-track to world-wide best seller status.

I just know it.
Here’s the deal. After blogs about my stroke, recovery and what not. Blogs about sickness and death. And blogs pitching published short stories and unpublished books I realized something kinda obvious. The lack of focus, the stops and starts — is the focus. And it goes down best with some yuks.
So here’s what I’ve done.
After an unpublished book about my weird stroke that got positive rejections (we’d publish this sucker if you were famous). And rejections on a pretty cool novel that seemed not to fit any easy-to-sell genres. I’ve written a third book that some writers I know say is uber unique, edgy and just one helluva read. But I can’t just chuck it out there to get ignored and passed over.
So, what do I do?

Self-publishing seems to rarely work. Being famous, however, is a fast track to
publishing success. So I just gotta get famous.

Committing an explosive, horrific crime is one option to achieve this, given I’m not an actor, musician or politician. No hope for sports fame at this point, unless I can score as a pickle baller and became a star on the as yet not created pickleball pro tour.
That’s led me to face fame.
This Reel — @timseefeldt —  is gonna, with your help, create a fake fame for me. That and hitting the open mike
stand-up circuit. But I need your help. Keep reading this, and the next and the next. Share it. Got to the
Reel — @timseefeldt — laugh your ass off and send it to a friend. A gazilia friends. Rinse and repeat on the share thing.
Then, with the power of my Reel fame and some stand up gigs under my belt, what publisher will be able to ignore my latest novel? And they’ll be fighting over the other one. And the stroke book.
This can’t miss.
What’s the new novel about?
It’s kinda a secret. A writer friend told me to be careful…someone might steal the idea. It’s that cool he said. It does bring together some twisted angles, human manipulators looking to re-write the meaning of life and a washed up newspaper reporter who gets recruited to try to keep the world from becoming unhinged. There are glamourous locations, violence, oh and sex. Ya a forbidden terrestrial/extra terrestrial one. Steamy and sad. You’ll love it. Despite all the weirder stuff, there’s still old fashion fights, treachery and some morality stuff that will be among those things that make you go hmmm.
But you’ll never get a chance to read it – and the movie that will no doubt follow it – unless you help make me famous. Ish.

So please share this. Click on to the Reel — @timseefeldt — share it too please. And watch for me on open mike nites. I’ll also give you some previews on the Reels. 
And when I’m published? Your reward? I couldn’t have done it without you! You’ll always be able to tell folks this.
“The writer/reeler Seefeldt? I helped make that cat what he is today. We’re tight.”
That’ ll kinda make you a big deal too. Whaddaya say?
