Happy Baby

Happy Baby is the story of Theo, once an orphan in the Chicago foster care system and now a grown man living in California. Theo, saturated with memories of abuse and heartache, and filled with the simple wish to understand more about himself, returns to Chicago to reconnect with an old girlfriend from his troubled youth. Told in reverse order, this edgy and powerful novel slowly and subtly turns mysterious, as we attempt to recognize the root of Theo's plight and the source for his quietly wavering humanity.

Jones Inn is about thieves, hustlers, con men, and beautiful junkies. Same old story, same old nothing. Forget Trainspotting, forget Ginsberg. This is a street level crawl through sewers, juvie homes, wet dime bag love, short term chicago squats, and long term slow motion suicides. Tyrell, Scales, sunny, Mary and Paul. five best friends, five pretty losers going down into the hole. Going down hard, going down mean. And when the ride was all over, every memory would be just another old bruise.
