Hamilton Brownstone’s father died when he was six. At the funeral he met a strange, angry boy named Gardner: the brother from another family that neither he nor his mother had known about.
In the years since that meeting, Gardner won the lottery and has used the money on a campaign of self-destruction, largely through his hobby of applying for minimum wage jobs. His goal is rock-bottom, something he can't ever seem to pull off. Hamilton’s bigggest accomplishment since their meeting is a job at a disco-themed hot dog counter.
Faced with no accomplishements of note, Hamilton has decided to live out the lives of famous writers in order to channel them and write a book.
However between his mother’s neediness, his girlfriend’s acting ambitions and his boss’s constant attempts to make him manager, Hamilton bizarrely decides the only way he’ll be able to finish his book is in prison.
And there’s only one person willing to help Hamilton end up there: his brother Gardner.
“Josh has a talent for creating an instant connection with a character and his or her story that, unfortunately seems to be rare in the world of writing today.” -The Idaho Statesman
“The originality in his approach and his grip of humor writing knock the wind out of me.” -Boulder Weekly
“[His] are the kind of soul-molesting stories that are difficult to forget, and would be a shame to miss out on.” -LauraReviewsBooks.com

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
