Welcome Kimba Woods

I've created the wittiest and most memorable female private investigator in years, bar none. I've read them all before doing this. I challenge anyone reading this post to point to a protagonist as funny and fully drawn as "Kimba Woods."
But Kimba Woods in "The President's Baby" is not merely rip-roaring private investigator yarn, it's a travelogue through late 20th century pop American culture that presents fascinating characters and situations not seen in American literature since Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. In other words, its a novel that not only defines a generation, but a century as well.
The name "Kimba Woods" will soon be a household word. If not for "The President's Baby" surely for the sequel "The Governor's Daughter" which is the story of an Alabama Dixiecrat governor who fathers a mulatto daughter, runs for President in 1948, loses and becomes a senator for a record-breaking 50 years. All similarities to anyone living or dead are purely coincidental.
The fact of the matter is, I'm writing the funniest stuff out there today. You may go to my website below and judge for yourself.

Hmm, interesting promotional piece. Though, I must say, since the cartoon - Kimba the White Lion - was broadcast around 40 years ago, I haven't heard of any new gritty characters being named after a lion cub.

While I enjoy strong female characters, I will have to point to Bernice Summerfield as my favourite intergalactic sarcastic detective. She broadcasts the type of wit, irony and humou

The 'Prof' referred only to a protagonist, Doc.

I didn't get much further than "female private investigator", because I prefer my privates to be investigated ...
Well, you get the drift.
