    About this ebook

    Synopsis- Meet Jack, a God fearing family man with malice towards none but little does he know of that which awaits him. Within days of our meeting, Jack’s life will be shattered and he will be forced into new, perilous surroundings. He is sure he knows the cause of his downfall and vengeful thoughts haunt him incessantly.
    He is soon drawn into a struggle with local thugs which forces him into a dangerous confrontation. Jack becomes ever hardened by the conflict and together with the help new found friends, he takes grisly retaliation.
    Emboldened by his newly acquired mettle he decides to avenge those who he believes led to his initial undoing. Revenge will be sweet or so he thinks?

    Latest Review - "The end I was jaw-dropping...great ending! I really appreciate a well thought out piece and what I gathered from the ending is that the author definitely thought this story through. Also, I enjoyed a few of the characters, they all had their parts to play and each one had their own personality. In some cases, authors end up making the fatal error of creating characters that all seem the same. However, this was not the case for this story" - by geeky_me » 20 Aug 2013, 17:03 at OnlineBookClub (dot) com review of "Fish Farm"

      Introduction to EScreen

      EScreen is a unique form of book style. It is written as a modified screen play format so as to accommodate electronic reading devices.

      Why should you read a book written in EScreen format?

      It is a movie using your mind as its screen. It allows the reader’s imagination to soar much as old time radio shows once did. It allows you become more a part of the story rather than merely an observer. An entertaining story can be read in a short time rather than the traditional book which often requires many hours. It is entertainment that can easily be spliced into today’s fast paced life style no matter how demanding your schedule might be.

      Screen Play Terms Used in ‘Gone Fishin’"

      INTERCUTTING - An editing method whereby related shots are inserted into a series of other shots for the purpose of contrast or for some other effect.

      Chapter 1

      Country Livin’

      FADE IN:

      Int. A church - sunday morning.

      The CHOIR is just finishing the final lines of the Lord's Prayer. The volume increases as the singing concludes.

      Choir

      (singing)

      Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

      The PRIEST is seated as the choir ends. He stands, walks to the pulpit, stands solemnly peering into the mass of seated parishioners and begins the sermon. His voice echos loudly throughout the church.

      Priest

      Romans 12:17-21 Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God

      The Priest's voice begins to fade as he speaks the following lines.

      PRIEST (cont'd)

      For it is written, Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.

      JACK and his wife a couple in their early sixties are seated in the front pew as the priest speaks. They appear with hands folded and highly attentive, hanging on every word.

      DISSOLVE TO:

      Ext. The church doorway - after the service

      The priest is standing at the doorway speaking to the parishioners as they leave. Jack and his wife are next in line.

      JACK

      Thank you Father. Your message was truly inspirational. If only we could all live by those words.

      PRIEST

      Thank you Jack but those are not my words, they are the words of God. I merely pass them on to those who are willing to receive them and act accordingly. The peace of the Lord be with both of you.

      Cut to:

      INT. BEAT UP 92 PONTIAC - EARLY AFTERNOON

      Jack is in the passenger's seat while his friend PETEY a balding, portly 68 year old is driving. They are driving along a country road bordered by woods and farm land. Flashing red and blue lights suddenly illuminate the rear view mirror.

      PETEY

      Hey, Jack what's that cop want? He's right on our ass.

      Jack turns in his seat to look out the rear window.

      JACK

      (Anxiously)

      How should I know? Better pull over!

      They pull over and wait nervously for the COP to approach. The cop car pulls up behind them. After a few seconds the cop exits his car and walks up to Petey's car. He stops momentarily and looks at the large box protruding from the trunk of the car. He then continues to the driver's window.

      COP

      How are you gentleman doing today?

      PETEY

      What's the problem officer?

      COP

      What's in the box in your trunk?

      Jack stares straight ahead in sweaty silence. After a second or two he turns towards the cop and struggles to appear less anxious than he is.

      PETEY

      It's a television! We're takin' it up to a friend.

      COP

      Television, huh? In a box that big?

      JACK

      It's an old one.

      The cop turns and walks to the back of the car. Looks over the box and returns to speak again with

      Petey.

      COP

      (in an interrogating tone)

      Just where exactly are you taking it?

      PETEY

      We're takin' it to Larry up at 'Larry’s Fishin' Hole' a couple miles up the road.

      Immediately the cop strikes a less threatening pose and tone. He smiles.

      COP

      Oh, you mean Larry Fine. Known him for years. I take my kids up there fishing now and then. (a beat)

      Anyway, the reason I stopped you is you can't have that box hanging outta the trunk like that without a flag on it. A piece of cloth will do it. A red piece would be the best.

      The cop looks at the clutter in the back seat of Petey's car and points to an old shirt lying on the back.

      COP (COnT'd)

      That plaid shirt there. You can use that.

      Jack reaches back for the shirt as the cop begins to leave.

      COP (CONT'D)

      That's about it boys and by the way tell Larry that Tim Harbor was asking about him. Have a good day.

      The cop gets into his car and drives away. Jack expels a sigh of relief. Jack gets out of the car and puts the shirt on the protruding box. He reenters the car and they drive away.

      JACK

      Man that was a close one.

      PETEY

      What do you mean?

      Jack hesitates and then speaks rather unconvincingly.

      JACK

      You don't have the money for a fucking ticket do you?

      PETEY

      Oh, yeah, I know what you mean. Yeah that was a close one.

      DISSOLVE TO:

      A sign appears in the distance The sign reads - 'Sorry - No fish are bitin' today - Closed for Repairs'. They turn and drive down the long, dirt lane adjacent to the sign. A dust cloud pours from the rear of the car as they drive. It is Sticksville for sure.

      EXT. Larry’s HOUSE - MID MORNING

      LARRY with a long scraggy, white pony tail, a beard, and some
