Can't wait for the next book from Swank Master Sep 07, 2009
I truly enjoyed Crackin Up! It was a bit raw read for me (I typically read novels that don't have such a bite). The author did an excellent job of making the characters real and creating the scenes in my imagination. Although the book and characters were fictional, I have a different viewpoint of life in the urban "ghetto". I have sincere empathy for the men,women and especially the children that reside in these environments. Based on the novel the drug of choice "crack" has torn generations and families apart. Swank Master Thank YOU for opening my eyes and enlighening me on an issue that has severly impacted our people.
I have recommended Crackin up to all of my peers! I will continue to wait on the next novel from Swank Master.

A MUST READ! Aug 03, 2009
Raw, ugly, real. Swankmaster shows us a world that's almost overwhelming in it's blight, and search for hope. This book should be required reading for any one who is satisfied with their own circumstances.
Crackin' Up Apr 29, 2009
It's a hit. I started reading and I couldn't put it down. I can't wait until the next story is done. Looking forward to reading. The was an easy read because it is reality. People will be able to identify with the story and the characters. Thank you for having the guts to put it out there just like it is.

An Expression By The Author Feb 21, 2009
To me, Crackin' Up is something that needed to be said. Now that I've said it, I hope that it brings some understanding to the table about what goes on with the people that many of us have relegated to a cliche: "Crack-head" or "Crack-whore." That way they won't seem as real to us as they should; nor, dare I say, as human. I make no excuses for them, nor for you, nor for me. I just tell the story. However, If I have added any amount of understanding to the disposition of that society through Crackin' Up, then this will be, hands down, my greatest success with this endeavor. Thank you for your interest in Crackin' Up.

This read blew me away. If a wonder bread kid like me from the burbs can be sucked in and truly feel for the characters, then I am sure I am in the prescence of great writing. Looking forward to sharing with friends who can handle the absolute raw nerve it is sure to hit. Nicely Done Swank Master!!!
