False Dandelions - Book Trailer

A Writer's Ego

When I first walked pass this ‘Local Author’ display I tried my best to stay the somewhat quiet, humble person that I am (or thought I was)…and then I smiled a big country smile, took a few steps back and snapped a picture. I think it’s great when libraries support their local writers, especially those writers who are without the backing of big-time publishing houses. Honestly, I was taken by surprise when I saw my book FALSE DANDELIONS displayed on the top shelf. – Randolph Randy Camp

Is There a Lit'l Turtle in You?

Working from paycheck to paycheck in a going-nowhere, thankless job, we sometimes get the feeling that we're just errand runners for others. In 'FALSE DANDELIONS' the character 'Turtle' has always been somebody's errand boy. As time went on, Turtle has become an old street dog who has made a few bad decisions...one of which is deciding to steal money from a drug deal and quietly skip town. At times, there's a little Turtle in all of us...sometimes when you feel stuck in a nowhere place and you feel like there's no way out, you began to get anxious and desperate...When you've always been a nobody, you feel a hunger to be a somebody. Turtle was tired of always being somebody else's errand boy. He wanted to run his own game...to become his own man. When you take a gamble as Turtle did in 'FALSE DANDELIONS', sometimes you win -- sometimes you lose.

Jesse's CHANGIN' FACE from False Dandelions

CHANGIN’ FACE
Here we go…changin’ face
Just like the river…in the race
Here we go…changin’ face
Just like the dandelions…in the wind
Feels like blood…gettin’ thin
Here we go…changin’ face
Just like the river…in the race
Maybe these dreams of ours just floats away
Here we go again…changin’ face
Just like dandelions…in the wind
*Note: CHANGIN’ FACE was written for the character Jesse in the Southern noir novel ‘False Dandelions’

Jesse and LaBrea: An Interracial Love Story From False Dandelions

Jesse, the up and coming country star, has dreams of Nashville. In their small rural County of Spotsylvania, Virginia, Jesse falls head over heels in love with a young ebony princess named LaBrea, and who also happens to be the Sheriff's daughter. This is just one of the juicy stories within Randolph Randy Camp's contemporary Southern noir crime novel FALSE DANDELIONS. Here are samples and little excerpts from the novel:

Exiting the bus is Jesse Raine and LaBrea Woods. Sweethearts since last summer, the interracial couple raise a few eyebrows around the county. Jesse stands tall wearing a confident, big country smile. LaBrea's flawless brown skin and curvaceous body, wrapped tightly in stylish jeans, turns all the boys' heads. LaBrea blushes. Nonchalantly, Jesse continues to spread his cowboy grin. LaBrea bends over to pluck a white, lollipop head of tiny weightless spheres then playfully blows them off the flower head. The air is filled with a white cloud of floating dandelion wishes. Roland, a Black boy who has been trying to get LaBrea's attention, shifts his eyes on her curvy backside as Jesse's white hand gently slides into his girlfriend's back pocket. Consumed with jealousy, Roland sighs then turns up his lip in distaste.
