"Mick, the murdered teen girl protagonist of m.c. nuto's harrowing You Used to Know Me returns as a ghost to watch over her hapless friend, Jenny, her killer's last surviving victim. But it's hard work! Jenny is a mess of dysfunctional contradictions, navigating life with her single mom, surviving rehab, humiliated by demoralizing minimum wage jobs, exploring teen crash pads, performing with art-punk combos in nocturnal, wilderness jam sessions...not to mention enduring further trauma from proximity to drunk driver hit-and-runs, desert dirt bike decapitations, botched casino robberies and the gaslighting from one helluva sociopathic street preacher named Pastor Ronald. m.c. nuto's Catch Me Now I'm Falling is fascinating, surreal and strangely authentic." - Chris D., author of Dragon Wheel Splendor and Other Love Stories of Violence and Dread, novels No Evil Star, Mother's Worry, Shallow Water, et. al. "In Catch Me Now I'm Falling, m. c. nuto unwraps a first-hand account of a fast, fully lived and fully loved life cut short not by the drugs that once threatened to steal the protagonist Jenny's resolve but by a fate she cannot outrun. Through her eyes and the eyes of her angel we get to experience what it is to be young and disenfranchised. We follow her into the tight knit community of punks where she finds solidarity. She wants more from her life than what her mother has been able to carve out. Through perilous decision-making she tests her own moral compass and the lengths she'll go to get out from under. Heartfelt and suspenseful, m. c. nuto's lean and expressive style gives voice to a life we are lucky to have been introduced to." - Nicca Ray, author of memoir Ray on Ray: A Daughter's Take on the Legend of Nicholas Ray and poetry collections Back Seat Baby and Go Go Go Girl "In a town where everyone's playing a game, who can you trust? Catch Me Now I'm Falling is a tale of redemption and betrayal through the heart of Las Vegas, where the lull of your false sense of security can spiral into reckless abandon, nightmare and tragedy with the turn of a page." - Danny Bland, author of In Case We Die, I Apologize in Advance for the Awful Things I'm Going to Do and We Shouldn't Be Doing This; tour manager for Dave Alvin, Steve Earle, Samantha Fish, Wayne Kramer and others.
