Announcing: The Six Words or Less Contest

I’m holding a contest that could get your name in my new thriller.

The follow-up to my crime novel, Bigger Than Jesus is called Higher Than Jesus and it’s coming this fall. 

Here’s the challenge: My hit man passes a homeless person in the street and gives him some money. The homeless person wears a black hoodie. I want something catchy and memorable on that hoodie. I thought about making an inside joke and making it a Self-help for Stoners emblem (my first book). I considered using a meme that’s already out there but kind of hipster, like the inside joke from Portal: There is no cake.

But no, I’m calling on the readership! What’s the short, punchy, pithy, memorable phrase that should adorn that black hoodie on the homeless guy on a cold winter’s night in Chicago? It could be funny. It could be pointed and political. Let’s hear it!

Five prizes for the overall winner. Check out the details and leave your witty suggestions in this comment thread at ChazzWrites.com.

Please click it to grab the gripping, funny crime thriller by Robert Chazz Chute.

What do you get for your contribution?

(Yes, there is metaphorical cake!)

The winner gets lots of that cake! There are five prizes. Go to this link for all the details and post your entries in the comments at that link (so all the entries are in one thread.) Thanks and have fun!

PODCAST: Bigger Than Jesus Chapter 1

Bigger Than Jesus by Robert Chazz Chute (my funny crime thriller) is earning five-star reviews. This summer, I’m reading it a chapter at a time. If you want the whole thing at once, that’s easy! It’s yours for $2.99 here. Couch change!

5 STAR REVIEWS! 

“Worthy of Elmore Leonard with a backstory that is shades of Thomas Harris!”

 “Punchy dialogue and plot twists that keep you moving from one calamity to the next with no time to catch your breath.”

“What a fun ride of a crime thriller!”

“Hot girl on the cover didn’t hurt.”

Bigger Than Jesus is the story of a hit man who wants to get out of The Machine,  New York’s Spanish mob. To escape with his girlfriend (the lovely Lily Vasquez) Jesus Diaz will have to steal a fortune in mafia money and cheat death at every step. He might even have to kill his best friend to get away, if his best friend doesn’t kill him first. It’s like a Coen brothers’ movie where the wide and easy road out of town is fraught with danger.
