You Still Can’t Make This Up! : More Memoirs of a Social Worker by J. Traveler Pelton

You Still Can’t Make This Up! : More Memoirs of a Social Worker by J. Traveler Pelton

In this second book about my twenty-eight years in professional Social Work, I reached back in my memory vault to put stories to the faces that still come to mind when I sit back and recall those days. Some of them are drop-dead funny, some are sad and some simply infuriated me. I’ve met people from the privileged to the poor and most their relatives. Book two continues the short, almost true history of that career, funny to tragic. Names have been changed to protect innocent and guilty. It gets greasy, gritty, gracious and no way glamourous here. If you like true to life stories, odd characters funny to tragic, you will love this book.

About Nutsucker

A ferocious, poetic collision of words, visuals, and digital decay.

Enter the disturbed, electric world of Collin J. Rae — poet, visual artist, and unapologetic provocateur. NUTSUCKER is a ferocious collection of experimental poetry and surreal art that rips through the skin of sanity to reveal something raw, chaotic, and undeniably human.

Through a language of glitch, grief, and grotesque beauty, Rae’s poems shatter the comfort of convention. His words bleed, mutate, and reform — a mirror held to cruelty, decay, and the fractured pulse of modern existence. Each page pairs incendiary verse with Rae’s signature digital hallucinations — neon specters of anguish and rebellion.

Unfiltered. Unforgiving. Uncompromising.
This isn’t poetry that asks to be understood. It demands to be felt.

Publisher’s Note:

This eBook edition of NUTSUCKER presents the complete written works of Collin J. Rae — raw, unfiltered, and unapologetically human. To preserve digital readability, this version does not include the visual artwork featured in the print release. For the full visual and sensory experience — where each poem collides with Rae’s haunting digital imagery — the paperback edition is available through Baroque Medusa Media.

Collin J. Rae’s language, spelling, and structure are intentionally unrestrained — part of his raw artistic process. Each distortion, invented word, and fracture in form is deliberate, reflecting the chaotic rhythm and emotional truth of his work.

“Collin J. Rae’s NUTSUCKER is a real pallet cleanser.”
