The Daddies is a love letter to masculinity, a kaleidoscope of its pleasures and horrors. The question “Who’s your Daddy?” started showing up in mainstream cultural references during the 1990s. Those words can be spoken as a question, or a challenge, as a flirtation, a joke, or a threat. It’s all about inflection, intention, and who’s asking. Apparently, we have so much shared cultural meaning about “Daddy” the speakers and listeners can simply intuit meaning and proceed to laugh at the joke, or experience the shame, as appropriate. But who is Daddy in American culture? The Daddies aims to find out more than who – but how the process of knowing Daddy can prompt readers to know themselves and their society. This allegory about patriarchy unfolds as a kinky lesbian Daddy/girl love story. Daddy-ness is situated in all people, after all, and we each share responsibility for creating a fairer world. The Daddies can be used as a springboard for discussion in courses in sociology, gender and women's studies, cultural studies, sexuality studies and communication. As a work of fiction, The Daddies can also be enjoyed by general audiences.

Adventure and comedy collide like a MQ-9 Reaper drone and a clown car in this edge-of-your seat thriller that makes Jason Bourne and Jack Reacher look like a pair of poodle ovaries. Plus the poodle is in menopause. This hilarious parody of bestselling page-turners your dad reads on the toilet finds hero maverick Theo Sultan – an ex-sharpshooter and former Navy SEAL lawyer – battling his greatest foe yet: a foreign business man who wants to rid the world of true American mavericks... forever. It’s the week before Father’s Day, and one-by-one, the nation’s greatest dads have been mysteriously kidnapped. With the help of a sassy girl-hacker and support from a high-ranking military official, hero Theo Sultan – a patriot who plays by his own rules – embarks on an unclassified mission where everything is as it doesn’t seem. A mission that may reveal the location of his own estranged father, a no-good deadbeat who abandoned Sultan and his mom at a young age. From Langely to Rio to Switzerland to even off-the-Grid, this seasoned maverick is in a race against time to stop a diabolical (and did we mention foreign) mad man from unleashing his evil plot. Can Sultan battle his way to victory and take down all the dirty politicians, secret occultists, and family demons that stand in his way? Only a trip into The D.A.D.D.Y Complex will reveal the truth... (But yes, the hero this franchise is named after has a good chance of succeeding.)
