Inside the Texas Chicken Ranch

The Definitive Account of the Best Little Whorehouse

By: Jayme Lynn Blaschke

Thanks to the classic Dolly Parton film The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and ZZ Top's ode "La Grange," many people think they know the story of the infamous Chicken Ranch. The reality is more complex, lying somewhere between heartbreaking and absurd. For more than a century, dirt farmers and big-cigar politicians alike rubbed shoulders at the Chicken Ranch, operated openly under the sheriff's watchful eye. Madam Edna Milton and her girls ran a tight, discreet ship that the God-fearing people of La Grange tolerated if not outright embraced. That is, until a secret conspiracy enlisted an opportunistic reporter to bring it all crashing down on primetime television. Drawn from exclusive interviews and expanded with newly uncovered information, Jayme Lynn Blaschke's revelatory exposition of the Ranch illuminates the truth and lies surrounding this iconic brothel.

A Passin’ On

By: Jayme Alan Toomey

Author Jayme Alan Toomey Releases Another Disturbing Novel New harrowing tale that obscures faith and reason grips horror fiction aficionados VENTURA, Calif. Jayme Alan Toomey, author of the grand slam horror fiction stories Paging Dr. Kevorkian, Breakin Heads, and Written in Stupid, publishes another novel that will keep horror fiction fans at the edge of their seats. A Passin On is a blood-curling tale that obscures the borderline that delineates faith and delusion, reason and insanity, based on the queer life of a family headed by a self-proclaimed man of God. Father Joseph Rueben Levi commands a powerful and wise appearance. He is a tall, trim, middle-aged, self-proclaimed preacher who claims to have God-given and rightful authority. Dressed in black with a shepherds staff, he looks like a god. Christian and his younger brother, Chester, lost their family at a young age. Father Joseph adopted both boys as his own sons immediately after they were left orphaned. He wastes no time instructing them with the ways of God and reads the bible to them regularly, feeling it is his prioritized obligation. Christian remembers nothing about his real family except for one thing: they were brutally murdered right before his eyes by no other than Father Joseph himself. Told in a very gripping narrative, A Passin On will lead readers to a chain of violence, gore, disturbing preaching and shocking revelations. Readers will realize that sometimes, in the name of God and heaven, the thin line that divides morality and immorality can be blurred or erased altogether.
