The Location Scout is the story of a Hollywood Location Scout who one day gets offered a job with the Witness Protection Program. He travels the world identifying locations in order to help people get where they need to be. The Location Scout knows the entire planet like the back of his hand. Then one day he realizes he has no idea where he is.

The Location Scout is a story about choices and uncertainty and being lost and finding your way in the world.

Steve Himmer says:

I really enjoyed The Location Scout – it certainly felt complete as it was, but I would have loved to keep reading and to stay in that world longer. I loved the sense of a whole world of people in hiding, and that the metaphor wasn’t overdone – lots to think about, without being told WHAT to think about, and I always enjoy that in fiction.

Josh Allen says:

[D]on’t quote me on this, but I think — MAYBE — I think maybe Location Scout is my favorite thing you’ve written.

I first mentioned this book on my tumblr a week or 2 ago. It was sold-out for a little while but I have some more copies now. The reviews are starting to come in on Goodreads and basically people seem to like it.

This is a self-produced affair, 1/2 size, 12pp. About 3000 words. The original idea came to me in August 2008; the bulk was written between October 2008 and February 2009.

SOLD OUT I’M SORRY. Still available for the Kindle, and PDF version coming soon.
