In Randolph Randy Camp's latest novel '29 DIMES', an eclectic group of Los Angeles high school students will have experiences during their summer break that will change their young lives forever. Teki is one of the students and she dreams of becoming a pop star. The song 'VEHICLES' is sung by Teki within the novel.
'VEHICLES'
You pick me up…take me around
You use me up when you’re feelin’ down
Just like vehicles goin’ around and around
Just like vehicles in my town
You only need me when you’re down
Next time when you’re passin’ by
I’ll remember you…and the smile and the lie
‘Cause you’re just another vehicle goin’ by and by
Yeah, just another vehicle goin’ by and by
You hold me… You kiss me
You give me a ride
Maybe some day…maybe some way
We may collide.
"Vehicles" was written by Randolph Randy Camp specifically for the character ‘Teki’ in his novel ‘29 Dimes: A Love Story’
'Vehicles' is about people who pretend to love and care about you only to get to where they're going. In '29 Dimes', the character Teki is confronting this issue with her brother Vince and somewhat with her classmate Kalib. - Randolph Randy Camp

DON'T GIVE UP! KEEP WRITING!
DON'T GIVE UP! KEEP WRITING! If you're a writer in your heart of hearts, then write 'til your fingers are numb. There have been times when I'd felt like throwing in the towel and giving up on my writing dreams, but even after stuffing all of my writing materials underneath my bed and deep into my closet, only two days later there I was digging it all back out again. Even after scanning through your pile of rejection letters, you must (and you will) find the inner strength to fight discouragement. Take your rejection letter and turn it over to use the backside as scrap paper and keep writing. If you're a screenwriter, you must envision the audience watching your movie as you're currently writing it. If you're a novelist, you must envision your readers physically holding and reading your book as you are presently writing your first draft. - Randolph Randy Camp

Leaves fallin' down and tears in my eyes
I sit by this river and cry and cry
But just like running water...running water

I sit by this river and cry and cry
Somebody please...please

NEW K.A.N.S.A.S. Plot Teaser
Spelling Bee
champ, young Jennifer, has been invited on a late-night talkshow. After a brief
chat with the host, Jennifer abruptly stands and looks directly at the camera.
She addresses her TV audience…
JENNIFER: “This
message is for the people of Kansas. If you’re over eighteen, living in Kansas,
and don’t want to live by kids’ rules, then you need to find some other place
to stay. We’re taking over Kansas but we don’t want to harm nobody. Adults don’t
have to leave just as long as they can listen to us kids. Thank you.”
The
following day, the adults of Kansas react to Jennifer’s message…
In a wheat
field near Wichita, two farmers are shooting the breeze as they casually stroll
through the field inspecting the wheat. We eavesdrop on their conversation…
FARMER
1: “Did ya’ hear that lit’l girl on the
late show last night?”
FARMER 2: “Yup,
she seems smart as I don’t know what – spelling ‘em big words ‘an all but looks
like she’s missing a few screws upstairs though.”
FARMER
1: “I said this years ago, it’s all that
sugar they put on kids’ cereal nowadays. Just makin’ ‘em crazy.”
