 Warren
Bull Speaks About
“Searching for Sergeant
Bull:”
A trip to Europe with my
father retracing his path as a combat infantryman in World War II gave
me a rare glimpse at a part of his life that he kept away from his
family and even himself for most of his adult life. I often think about
the trip and writing about it gave me a chance to share the experience
with family, friends, and others.

“Abraham Lincoln for the
Defense”
 Attorney Abraham Lincoln
never before had to defend a case like this one. A visitor to
Springfield vanished. Then, a man accused his two brothers of the
visitor’s brutal murder. The good citizens of Springfield seemed set on
a double hanging. It is up to Lincoln to save the brothers from the
gallows.
“Abraham Lincoln for the
Defense”
is based on an actual
murder trial that so intrigued Lincoln that he was still writing about
it five years later. Resolution of the case solved one mystery, but it
created a greater question that, to this day, remains unanswered. The
novel introduces the reader to Lincoln while he is a young attorney
developing into the man who will become the great emancipator, a
martyred president, and one of the most beloved figures in American
history.
Standing alone between the
Trailor brothers and the hangman’s noose was
“Abraham
Lincoln for the Defense.”

Sometimes clients just don’t know
what’s good for them! I was a consultant for a while, and I’ve had clients to make the craziest requests
of me, wanting to pay me to do something patently stupid. It happens ...
sometimes more than once in a day.
 “She’s
not dead yet,” said the redfaced sweaty man plopping down across from me in my
favorite booth in the diner. “You’ve got to do something. You said
you’d take care of it. Tony assured me you were the one to talk to.
My wife’s driving me crazy.”
I glanced up from my racing form.
“Whatever you’re selling, I don’t want any.
Scram.” ...... |

“I was in disguise when it started,
designer sunglasses, boat shoes without socks and a tailored Italian
suit. I wandered around a high-class shopping district called the
Country Club Plaza, waiting for someone to act like an idiot.
That’s how I made a living.”

Review |

Warren, I journeyed over to DownGoSun and enjoyed reading your
story. The first person voice had me hooked after only a paragraph or two. You
drew an interesting down-to-earth character with no pretensions about who he is
or what he does. If someone held a gun to my head and demanded I say something
critical, the best I could come up with would be that the girl's voice, at times
seemed too mature for her age. But, overall, I liked it muchly and thought the
ending line was a perfect gem.

“A
Lady of Quality” |

was
published in the September, 2006 issue of
DownGo Sun. I have been fortunate to
know a few people who opposed the racial inequality that permeated the
world around them despite facing financial ruin, social isolation and
even threats. This story is dedicated to them. Bigotry is
such a corrosive crime against the human spirit that it scars those who
practice it, those who are subjected it to and those who witness it too.

“The Last Word”
 “The Last Word” has been selected for publication in
the inaugural edition (March, 2006) of the “DownGo Sun E-zine” portion of the Kansas
City Historic Northeast Cultural Arts Commission.
I was happy that one of my short stories was accepted for
the inaugural issue of
“DownGo
Sun.”
The editor did not tell me it was accepted so I was quite
pleasantly surprised when I checked to see if the E-zine was
up and discovered that it includes my story. I think you’ll
find an interesting mixture of styles and voices in the
various offerings.

“A great story”

“A wonderful Western without a gunfight”
|
You might recognize the characters from “Beecher’s
Bibles” |
|
that was published in Manhattan Mysteries |
|
I was so interested in the characters that I have
continued to write about them. I hope
eventually to get a novel about them published.
Wish me luck and stay tuned. |
