Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Fatal Mistake by Cliff Roberts Author Interview with Cliff Roberts. My name is Cliff Roberts and I am a writer. I have four novels on the market, all four of which have held the status of 1# bestseller at one time or another. The four books are titled, Reprisal! The Eagle Rises! , Reprisal! The Gauntlet , Fatal Mistake and Conch Republic. I have two books which will released shortly and they titled, Reprisal! The Sorrow and Is there something I should know? The Reprisal book is third book in the series and whereas the first two books focused on taking the war on terror directly into the terrorists homes this third book focuses on a counter punch by the terrorist group known as the “Brotherhood of the sword.” You can expect to see out in late February, early March. The second book due for release this spring is title, Is there something I should know? This is a non-fiction book dealing with the challenges of selling. I have over thirty years in sales and marketing and I am an award winning salesperson so I feel I have some unique insights into selling. I have structured the book so that it is an easy read filled with helpful hints that if practiced in a sales environment will help the salesperson help more people make the purchases they were hoping for, and thus increase their own income. This a basic primer that everyone who works for a living should be reading because we are all salespeople just at a different levels. I live in eastern Tennessee with my wife Donna we have two dogs and just love mountain living. When I’m not writing I like to explore the mountains, do wood working, take photographs of the landscaping, go antiquing, read, watch movies and play with the grandchildren. When did you know you wanted to be a writer? And are you interested in other forms of artistic expression? I have wanted to write since I was in high school but after a few college courses in creative writing life took me in a different direction and I didn’t have an opportunity to concentrate on writing again until I was medically retired in 2005. I am big into photography and wood working, when let myself stop writing for a while. People often say that the life of a writer is a lonely one. How do you stay motivated/inspired? Do you have advice for writers going through a difficult time? Life as a writer is lonely. But then is so the life of a sales rep and when you read books, which I do on a consistent basis. I have a sort of self- motivation within that I had to develop in my selling years as well as to overcome some of the challenges that life has provided me. I began writing with no less a goal than becoming a NY Times bestselling author. I’ve achieved bestseller status on Amazon but it’s not quite the same. The best advice for anyone who writes is to set goals for yourself and then follow what Ray Bradbury said and that was, “The only way to lose at writing is to quit. SO don’t quit.” If the first book you write doesn’t quite make the bestsellers list, write another and so on and so on until you do make the best seller list. Don’t quit! What draws you to your preferred genre? What can you never see yourself writing? I’m a big fan of two genres in particular. Action/adventure and thriller/mystery/suspense. I am a big fan of both Tom Clancy and Elmore Leonard . I enjoy the tension that draws you through the book to the end and keeps you guessing as you read each new chapter. I like the twist and turns and the strategy it takes to plan out these types of books. In either genre, the picture you’re seeing at the moment may not be the true picture. I cannot see myself ever writing a math or science manual. I’m just not that mathematically inclined. Anything else, hmmmm. Maybe. What do you think makes a good story? What do you try to avoid doing at all costs in your own writing? I like stories where the line between good and evil are a blurred. The antagonist and the protagonists may prove to be different people by the end the story. The thing I try very hard not to do in my own writing is over using words. Words like that, just, quite, quickly, quipped, and etc. when that happens it doesn’t matter how good the story actually is, the reader’s mind will wander and after they wandered for a few minutes you have usually lost them. Would you mind telling us what you think your strengths and weaknesses are? Okay I’m game. My strength is that I tell great story. All of my books, I have been told are real page turns. Books that once you start reading them, you won’t want to put them down. My biggest weakness is that I am not a very skillful writer. I write the book and then have to hand it over to an editor/proof reader. I am lousy at punctuation and only fair at grammar. But then most writers need editors so it’s not that bad. Who/what are your biggest influences, and why? As I said before I am a big fan of both Tom Clancy and Elmore Leonard . But my first real influence was H.G. Wells. H.G . is a very descriptive writer as well as a very insightful one. Tom Clancy and Elmore Leonard are similar. Clancy and Leonard I discovered once I was adult and H.G. Wells I read when I was in my early teens. What makes your genre unique? And why is it so popular, or perhaps less popular than it could be? I’m not so sure my genre is unique but the stories I tell are unique. It’s been said that there is nothing new in the world especially in the writing field. We merely take what is already written and paraphrase it to give it a new and exciting sound. That just may be true, but I like to think that the reader when they pick up my books will get something if not new, very different. I think that’s what’s makes them so popular. They are easy to read, yet complicated with a lot things you don’t see coming. Plus, I work very hard to create characters that we all can relate to. The Reprisal series combines and political thriller with an action adventure. A computer billionaire recruits and funds an emotionally devastated newly retired Chairman of the Joint chiefs to create a corporate security team that will not longer wait for terrorists to attack the United States, they will go out and pre-empt the terrorists and kill them in their own homes or their safe havens. While on the home front they take on the sitting president who is ignoring the constitution and is using executive orders to rule the country as if he were a dictator. Now before you jump up and start claiming that I have done nothing but use Obama as the Presidential example to write the books, I wrote the book in 2005 long before Obama was in office, it just worked out that he is just like that. Fatal Mistake is about a man whose wife is cheating on him and he decides instead of going through a divorce and losing everything, it’s cheaper to bury her in the back yard garden. Everything is planned perfectly but before he can kill his soon to be ex-wife everything starts to unravel. Before he knows what has hit him, the murderous husband is burying a stranger and his sister in law, as far he knows, has gone for the police. Now it is a race against time to bury the past and avoid making the fatal mistake. If he can avoid getting caught he can live a long and wonderful life. But life or fate keeps placing challenges in his path one after another involving the sister in law, the police, a mob boss, a private investigator and team of hit men sent to kill him. Fatal Mistake clearly shows that everybody makes mistakes and it only take one mistake to get caught. That sounds like a real-page turner! Conch Republic is about a middle aged, medically retired man who as a hobby happens to write books to fill his time. He also happens to keep finding himself in situations where he has to solve a crime to either keep from going to prison or to keep from being killed. The main character is Nate Nevwas. He’s nice enough and if he’s your friend, he’ll standby you no matter what. His fatal flaws are that he has an acid tongue and only knows how to speak sarcasm. He’s quick to come to the rescue of damsels in distress which is the main reason he’s always under suspicion for one crime or another and he just can’t keep his nose out of other people’s business. He suffers from terminal curiosity. ‘Terminal curiosity’, I like that. While attempting to help a damsel in distress Nate stumbles into a gang planning to steal a sunken treasure before the person who discovered it, can excavate it themselves from the ocean floor. The adventure takes Nate and his friend Mason, a retired NFL super star who after football chose to become a sheriff’s deputy in his hometown of Marathon, Florida. Together Nate and Mason find themselves battling hired killers, pirates and the mob who are all seeking to lay claim to treasure. The story takes the duo from Key West to the Everglades to the high seas and back again leaving a trail of bodies like bread crumbs behind them. Wow, another potential page-turner! Can you tell us about your other books or projects you are working on? Currently, I have two books about to be released. The first one will be a book on selling. It’s titled Is there something I should know? It’s non- fiction and it will help anyone to understand the sales process better thus making them a better sales person. The main focus is on how stop being that annoying pest that most people don’t trust to becoming the salesperson who is a trusted friend in the sale process. One of the most important things for everyone to remember is that we are all salespeople. I am hoping for a mid –February 2014 release. The second book, as mentioned is “Reprisal! The Eagle’s Sorrow”. It is the third book in the Reprisal! Series. The book takes place across the globe as usual but it focuses on Europe and the coming attack on Hamburg, Germany. Again the attack is led by Yousef Al-Sintani the cell leading for the attacks on Houston and San Antonio. I don’t dare tell you anymore because I don’t want to ruin the story for any of my fans. I am hoping to release it by April 1, 2014. For those of us trying to figure out the marketing aspect, what tips can you share? How did you come to establish your support team? This is a good question. Not every book can be sold the same way but every book needs something in common with every other book. They all need be exposed to the public. I have a somewhat complicated marketing plan where I personally spend a large amount of time posting to Facebook and Google. I have also signed with Nick Wale at Novel Ideas in order to get a pro’s touch for the ads I run, blog content, website content, SEO, keywords, and a host of other advertising challenges. So I recommend hiring professional help. There is just too much for the author to handle and still be able to write. I for one don’t want to spend time working the internet with blurbs, I want to write. What do you find is the most difficult aspect of writing and how do you cope with it? I don’t really view any part of writing as difficult. It comes quiet easy to me. The biggest challenge as an author is getting noticed in the sea of authors and their books that flood the reading public yearly. Without gaining that exposure that will set me apart from the other author’s out there, it’s a near thankless job. Until the readers start reading your book, are you really an author? It took me seven years to finally gain a following that is growing. My first four novels have all managed to become #1 bestsellers on Kindle. With that recognition the sales have taken off and I building hopefully a steady and faithful fan base that help with my other books I plan to release in the future. What is the best piece of (writing) advice anyone ever gave you? I haven’t received any direct advice from another author so I’ve taken the comments made by major authors and tried to follow them. Like Tom Clancy’s statement, “The difference between fiction and reality is that fiction has to make sense.” —Tom Clancy. That’s a great quote! So true! “Quantity produces quality. If you only write a few things, you’re doomed.”– Ray Bradbury. “If you don’t have the time to read, you don’t have the time or the tools to write.” — Stephen King. “My most important piece of advice to all you would-be writers: when you write, try to leave out all the parts readers skip.” — Elmore Leonard. What advice would you give to new writers, especially those looking to break into your preferred genre? Read, read and read some more. DO your research because fiction has to not only make sense, but also be as realistic as possible! How can readers get into contact with you?

Movie Serial Reviews and Other Cliffhanging Material. Daughter of Don Q. Republic, 12 Chapters, 1946. Starring Adrian Booth (Lorna Gray), Kirk Alyn, Roy Barcroft, LeRoy Mason. “In the 18th century, the King of Spain made a grant of about ten acres of land in the heart of this city to Don Quintus Quantero and his heirs for all time…now, that grant is still good, still legal–and I am one of the descendants of old Don Q.” So says California antique dealer Carlos Manning (LeRoy Mason), who has come into possession of the old grant and plans to use it to seize control of those ten acres–now exceedingly valuable parcels of urban real estate. Manning, unwilling to share this inheritance with fellow-heirs of Don Q, recruits racketeer Mel Donovan (Roy Barcroft) to locate and unobtrusively bump off the other surviving descendants of the old Don–all of whom are unaware of the land grant’s existence. However, one of these descendants, wealthy socialite and sportswoman Dolores Quantero (Adrian Booth), sets out to stop Donovan’s murderous campaign and discover the motives behind it; she’s aided in her investigation by Cliff Roberts (Kirk Alyn), a crime reporter from the Bulletin . Together, society girl and newshound repeatedly tangle with Donovan, all the while gathering clues that will eventually lead them to the supposedly respectable Manning and expose his unusual land-grabbing scheme. Daughter of Don Q deftly balances innumerable slam-bang action scenes with witty dialogue and unusual plot devices that keep the chapterplay from seeming like a mere collection of very similar fights and chases. Lynn Perkins, Albert DeMond, Basil Dickey, and Jesse Duffy all receive screenplay credit on Don Q ; the basic plot (athletic heiress battles inheritance-grabbing villains) bears a strong family resemblance to the Pearl White serial vehicles Dickey penned in the silent era, but I suspect that most of the quirkier trappings can be credited to DeMond. Unlike the other three writers, whose activities were almost entirely confined to serials, he penned many high-quality Republic B-westerns on his own–several of which (particularly the delightful Riders of the Rio Grande ) displayed the same deft blend of humor and seriousness that Don Q does (DeMond also worked on both and , two other well-written, above-average Republic serials from the same era). Above: Hero and heroine discuss the death of a crook who made his living through phony marriages with wealthy women (Dolores: “I wonder if any of the ladies he left waiting at the church will attend his funeral.” Cliff: “I doubt it, but some of them may send him orange blossoms.”). Among the dialogue bits that enliven Don Q’s screenplay are the comic grumblings of Dolores’ genteel aunt about the embarrassments of publicity, Roberts’ breezy baiting of the grumpy police detective Grogan, and the good-natured (and occasionally sarcastic) banter exchanged by our hero and heroine–particularly their humorously cynical discussion of a crook known as “Jake the Bridegroom” (see above). The serial’s script is further spiced by the distinctive plotting gimmicks that DeMond and his co-writers introduce at strategic intervals–among the most memorably offbeat being the villains’ elaborate attempt to frame the heroine for the hero’s murder, the knife-throwing sequence at the café, an appearance by a slangy and hard-boiled female crook, and a surprise attack by a henchman wearing a suit of armor. Above: Kirk Alyn tries to fight off a highly unusual adversary. Above: Maxine Doyle as the short-lived but colorful Knockout Nellie. Unlike these incidental touches, the serial’s main plot is not particularly offbeat–but is quite well-conceived; like the various capers in Federal Operator 99 , Manning’s scheme for acquiring the Quantero inheritance is ambitious enough to provide an interesting basis for the action, but not too grandiose for the serial’s budget. The writers also prevent the villains’ attacks on Dolores and on the other Quantero heirs from becoming too repetitious; the murder attempts are neatly alternated with lengthy investigative forays by hero and heroine. The last of these forays, which involves an old portrait of “Don Q,” leads quite logically into the satisfying final showdown–although this otherwise excellent climatic sequence is slightly marred by forgetfulness on the writers’ part ( in re the number of surviving Quantero descendants). Aside from this error, the only other plotting misstep in Don Q is the gold-train robbery sequence in Chapter Four–which is rather awkwardly shoehorned into the narrative in order to allow for the (seamless) insertion of stock footage from . Above: Roy Barcroft purloins a portrait of “Don Q” (the model for the painting was none other than director Spencer Bennet). However, the bulk of Don Q’ s action sequences are composed of original footage–and are quite good. The fight sequences are a little less elaborate than those in Republic’s wartime serials, but just as energetically destructive; at this point in the studio’s history, serial budgets were still big enough to permit the smashing of numerous props. Spencer Bennet and Fred Brannon oversee these set-destroying brawls, with their usual chief stuntmen Tom Steele and Dale Van Sickel leading the fight team; Van Sickel stands in for hero Kirk Alyn in the serial’s first fight scene, with Tom Steele doubling villain Roy Barcroft, but their “roles” are reversed in all subsequent scenes–fortunately, since the physical differences between the lanky Steele and the chunky Barcroft are hard to overlook (as one of my regular readers, “Old Serial Fan,” has pointed out in his comment on another review). Above left: Helen Thurston (doubling Lorna Gray) hurls a jar at Dale Van Sickel (doubling Roy Barcroft); Bud Wolfe is ducking in the corner. Above right: Tom Steele (doubling Kirk Alyn) tosses Van Sickel through the air in another fight in the same prop-filled location (a marine-supply warehouse), with Bud Wolfe again in the background. Both scenes are from Chapter Two. Stuntmen Bud Wolfe, Fred Graham, Eddie Parker, Joe Yrigoyen, Buddy Roosevelt, Ken Terrell, Ted Mapes, and Johnny Daheim are all on hand as well; stuntwoman Helen Thurston also figures prominently in many of Don Q’s action scenes, doubling for leading lady Lorna Gray–whose character Dolores Quantero is supposed to be an expert practitioner of jiu-jitsu. The various scenes in which the plucky Dolores displays this expertise are staged quite convincingly by Thurston, her male counterparts, and the directors–unlike the similar sequences in The Tiger Woman, in which the title character most unbelievably tossed husky henchmen around like rag dolls. Here, our heroine uses jiu-jitsu to unbalance unwary thugs (and, on one occasion, a police inspector), not hurl them through the air–and never seriously does damage to the audience’s suspension of disbelief or the laws of physics. Above: Lorna Gray (undoubled here) flings a surprised Roy Barcroft (doubled by Van Sickel) towards the floor. Among the individual action highlights in Don Q are the pair of battles (one short, one lengthy) in the marine-supply warehouse in Chapter Two (see above), the Chapter Three antique-shop fight, the Chapter Six chemical-company fight, the Chapter Nine café brawl, the excellent fight in the laboratory/barn in Chapter Ten, the wild Chapter Eleven combat at the artist’s studio (which features the previously-mentioned armored henchman), and the fistfight in the final chapter–which, like the one in Chapter Three, is set in Manning’s antique shop, and makes novel and entertaining use of the archaic weapons one would expect to find in such a setting. Far less reliant on the prop department, but no less memorable, are the extremely well-shot fight on the fire escape in Chapter Two and the three-way grapple in a speeding car featured in Chapter Three. Above left: Van Sickel makes an impressive leap onto Steele during the café fight. Above right: A good up-angle shot of the fire-escape fight. The climactic battle atop a frighteningly high bridge is another standout, with hero and villain shooting it out and then slugging it out, as a crate containing the heroine teeters precariously on the bridge rail. Bennet and Brannon also stage many good action sequences that don’t rely on fisticuffs at all–among them the Chapter Five shootout on the road, the car chase that follows it, the shootout at the mine in Chapter Seven, the gun battle at the café in Chapter Nine (which features some good camera angles), and the foot chase through the grounds of the Quantero hacienda in Chapter Eleven. The shootout in the hills in Chapter Ten is memorable as well, thanks to the heroine’s use of a bow and arrow instead of a conventional revolver (the hills in question are those of Iverson’s Ranch, Republic’s usual outdoor location, which figures in several other of Don Q’s scenes). Above right: Roy Barcroft prepares to ambush the good guys’ car on the road. Above left: Kirk Alyn (behind bar) and Roy Barcroft (peering through window) shoot it out in the café in Chapter Nine. Several of Don Q’s cliffhanger scenes rely on stock footage from earlier serials–including the above-mentioned Masked Marvel sequence, the truck crash from King of the Mounties , and the striking but familiar paint-factory explosion from G-Men vs. the Black Dragon . These sequences are all incorporated smoothly with the new footage; only the exploding building scene that ends Chapter Ten jars; though the building supposedly blown up is the familiar Republic barn (seen in medium shots in the new footage), the explosion stock footage used (from The Purple Monster Strikes ) features the destruction of a different building. Since Republic had footage on hand of the barn going boom, one wonders why it wasn’t used here instead; such an editing mistake is quite uncharacteristic of the studio’s production team. Many of Don Q’s non-stock cliffhangers are terrific; the knife-throwing sequence that ends Chapter Three is particularly memorable, with heroine Dolores (who’s gone undercover as the assistant of a nightclub knife-thrower) being menaced by the murderous Donovan, who’s taken the place of her co-star in order to terminate the knife-throwing act with a fatal “accident;” this sequence is exceedingly well-handled, with good editing, scoring, and wordless acting (on the part of Lorna Gray and Roy Barcroft, both of whom are masked and silent during the scene) making it memorably tense. The ending to Chapter Five, with hero and heroine driving off a cliff when their car is enveloped by a truck tarp released by the fleeing Donovan, is also well-done; the whale-gun scene (Chapter Two), the heroine’s dangle from the curtain of a tenth-story window (Chapter Eight), and the “glass guillotine” sequence (Chapter Eleven) make for strong episode-ending perils as well. Above: Lorna Gray (left) realizes (seemingly too late) that Roy Barcroft (right) has unexpectedly taken over the leading role in the knife-throwing act at the end of Chapter Three. Above: Barcroft unleashes a tarp (left) that encases the good guys’ car and sends it flying off a cliff (right) to end Chapter Five. Lovely Lorna Gray, making her final serial appearance before moving up the ladder at Republic as feature-film actress “Adrian Booth” (the name she’s billed under here), is excellent in the serial’s title role. She makes her Dolores seem far more upset about the villains’ evildoing than the typical post-war serial heroine–fittingly, considering her character’s blood connection to said villains’ victims; she comes off as passionately indignant when trying to convince the skeptical police of a deliberate plot against the Quantero family or when defying the heavies. Gray’s performance is far from unrelievedly serious, however; her jaunty enthusiasm as she prepares to face danger and her cheerful exchanges of banter with leading man Kirk Alyn balance out her more intense moments. She also does an excellent job of silently registering alarm and concern even in non-dialogue scenes, such as the knife-throwing sequence mentioned above. Above: Lorna Gray spots an off-camera burglar in a mirror. Kirk Alyn, as the rather flippant reporter hero, plays perfectly off Gray’s frequently fiery heroine; he conveys shrewdness, a sly wit, and even an amount of (justified) cockiness throughout the serial, bringing a welcome lightness to the proceedings without ever seeming anything less than a dependable and highly capable amateur detective. In many ways, his characterization here prefigures his two later turns as Superman/Clark Kent, in its combination of standard-issue serial heroism with somewhat more uncharacteristic wisecracking humor. Above: Kirk Alyn phones in some information . As Donovan, Roy Barcroft turns in the most menacing of all his many fine post-war serial henchman characterizations; while most of the secondary heavies Barcroft played were either comically thick-witted or gruffly pragmatic, he gives Donovan a smug, gloatingly cruel edge that recalls his portrayals of arch-villains like Captain Mephisto. The brusque impatience with which he dismisses his boss’s talk of land grants in order to get down to the “business” of killing the Quantero heirs, the smirking coolness with which he demonstrates his knife-throwing prowess in one chapter, and the subdued but palpable glee with which he threatens the good guys all make his character come off as extremely threatening. Above: Roy Barcroft prepares to slug someone. Brains heavy LeRoy Mason has far less to do than Barcroft, but handles his role with his usual skill–suavely and dignifiedly assuring the protagonists that he’s on their side in their hunt for Donovan, harshly and grimly issuing orders to Barcroft, expounding on his landowning ambitions with a sort of controlled fervor, and making sarcastic remarks with off-handed flair (like his amusing comment about modern artists). Above: LeRoy Mason outlines his plans. Kernan Cripps, as the grumpy police inspector Grogan, receives more screen time (and is given more opportunities to display an individual personality) than several other background authority figures in Republic serials; his grumpy and frequently antagonistic attitude towards the hero and heroine makes his periodic appearances lively and enjoyable; it’s particularly novel to see a Republic policeman actually cautioning a Republic hero about gunning villains down too often (as Cripps does to Alyn in one chapter). Claire Meade, as Dolores’ upright and fastidious aunt, is also given more of a distinctive character type to work with than many Republic supporting players, although her screen time is much more limited than Cripps’ is. Jimmy Ames is likable as a buoyant and helpful nightclub owner, while Frederick Howard is mild-mannered but dignified as a doomed Quantero descendant. Perennial Republic bit player Jack O’Shea plays another Quantero heir, Virginia Carroll makes a brief appearance as a female ally of the heavies, Charles Sullivan is a cop, and Tom Quinn a crooked scientist. Bob Wilke and George Chesebro have non-speaking thug bits, and I. Stanford Jolley pops up as a villainous lip-reader; Maxine Doyle, the leading lady of the serial SOS Coast Guard and the wife of former serial director , is delightful in an extended cameo as a hard-boiled moll named Knockout Nellie. The rest of Don Q’s supporting cast consists largely of stuntmen: Eddie Parker plays a minor but noticeable role throughout as LeRoy Mason’s clerk, while the rugged-looking Johnny Daheim is somewhat miscast as a villainous artist/antique collector. Most of the serial’s other stunt-team members all pop up in at least one heavy role–frequently three or four, in the case of Buddy Roosevelt, Tom Steele, and Dale Van Sickel (the latter also appears as a policeman). Daughter of Don Q has never been one of Republic’s most famous serials, but it’s thoroughly enjoyable all the same; though different in tone from the earlier Federal Operator 99 and the later G-Men Never Forget , it resembles them both in the stylish, creative, and highly entertaining way in which it embellishes its simple crime-story plotline. Above, left to right: Kernan Cripps, Kirk Alyn, Claire Meade, and Lorna Gray gathered around the coveted “Don Q” land grant in the serial’s final scene.
