Jaytee
Description
One particular day - which shall change his life forever - wearing his invisible cloak of solitude, 27-year-old Jaytee walked into an open air market. Stopping at a stand a particular camcorder attracted Jaytee's attention.

Response from writer/actor, John Considine: "This clobbered me with so much surprising enjoyment and lasting feeling of satisfaction and quiet sadness/nostalgia, that I'm still blindsided by its power."

Person
Rick Edelstein was born and ill-bred on the streets of the Bronx. His initial writing was stage plays off-Broadway in NYC. When he moved to the golden marshmallow (Hollywood) he cut his teeth writing and directing multi-TV episodes of "Starsky & Hutch," "Charlie's Angels," "Chicago," "Alfred Hitchcock," et al. He also wrote screenplays, including one with Richard Pryor, "The M'Butu Affair" and a book for a London musical, "Fernando's Folly." His latest evolution has been prose with many published short stories and novellas, including, "Bodega," "Manchester Arms," "America Speaks," "Women Go on," "This is Only Dangerous," "Aggressive Ignorance," "Buy the Noise," and "The Morning After the Night." He writes every day as he is imbued with the Judeo-Christian ethic, "A man has to earn his day." Writing atones.
