Lucky Dick Rod Dixon

When young biker "Lucky Dick" Richards first agreed to help steal $4,000 in OxyContin he thought it would be a quick way to score some pills and cash. But once he is abandoned by his best friend and on the run with nothing separating him from homelessness but his motorcycle, he discovers it was anything but quick. With nowhere left to go but forward, Lucky strikes west leaving his friends, family, and enemies to deal with the wreckage left behind. Told from multiple perspectives, this novel-in-stories is a gritty and poetic look at the American landscape and one man's discovery of what an outlaw's freedom actually entails."A fun novella, one that had me entertained and wanting more... A coming-of-age story about a man who made a terrible life decision and is now trying to rebuild his life from his past's shadows. The fast-paced narrative is incredibly rich and detailed. I enjoyed how the author portrayed everything, how he lured me in and allowed me to become a part of Lucky's life. This is a good, quick read that will be enjoyed immensely." -***** Rabia Tanveer, Readers' FavoriteRod Dixon's short-stories have appeared in several journals such as CC& D, Revolution John, and Red Rock Review.
