Shoot Me, Jesus is a “novel in short stories”, what writer Jane Lawless called “erotic magic realism with a Southwestern spiciness.” Humor is an essential element of each story.

It is their realizations, insights, and inner changes that move the collection along.

Together they embarked on a tour that brought them stimulating highs and shattering lows, and they prospered and suffered in one another's arms. The two men carried each other and carried a group that created both a history and a future for rock. But, at some point, their music blurred with the news of their love, and the world was faced with the choice to embrace its heroes or revert back to its deep-rooted prejudices.
