With his new girlfriend – a soccer
mom with a taste for bondage – urging him to “go condo,” failed screenwriter
Winfield Payton needs cash. Accepting a job offer from a college friend, he
becomes the lone white employee of a black S&L. As the firm’s token white,
he poses as a Mafioso to intimidate skittish investors and woos a wealthy
cougar to keep the firm afloat. Figure-skating between the worlds of white and
black, gay and straight, male and female, Jew and Gentile, Yuppie and militant,
Payton flies higher and higher until the inevitable crash. . .
Praise for
Wanna-be’s:
This book right here! What can I
say about Winfield Payton...is he the most unlucky pasty or most unlikely fall
guy...what a schmuck...I laughed so hard at this,for this guy....with this
guy....every character described in this book will immediately remind you of a
real life joker in the in the 24 hour news cycle on all of the Major networks
and cable television channels regurgitating skewed facts benefiting them and
lining their pockets....it's hip and fresh writing which could easily become a
HBO series....or Starz..maybe..anyway get this book....I laughed so
hard...almost popping my recent stitches from surgery...Mr. Connelly...thanks
for making my recuperation fun...this book is not for the faint of heart..or PC
sensitive readers...
