Benjamin Schachtman

Readers should know that BEFORE I began to build this posting, I sent Ben Schachtman an email telling him he's MY BEST SPORT IN WILMINGTON -- because he has ALWAYS ENCOURAGED MY BLOGGING -- and put up with my frequent criticisms, as well as my on-again, off-again HUGE SEXUAL CRUSH on him!!!

I've invited Ben to send me additions or corrections by email or blog comment -- and Ben has my Cell number as well -- so I can include them IN REAL TIME!!! I got TWO HITS to this posting before I'd gotten the four images above in -- HA!!!

Readers also know that I ALSO -- and NEVER LOSING IT -- have a HUGE CRUSH on CIA Agent Kevin Maurer -- one of Ben Schachtman's CLOSEST ASSOCIATES:

Kevin Maurer with his assistant, Shelby, when Kevin HEADED the Wilmington Star News's City Desk in 2012 -- charged with COVERING UP the CHRISTIAN HARD DRUG TRAFFICKING in Wilmington.

It was from this desk that Kevin spent a couple of hours interviewing me by phone while I was in Puerto Vallarta -- and CLAIMED he was writing a HUGE PIECE for the Star News on how District Attorney Benjamin R. David had SCREWED ME.

But as SOON as his new book was announced in the press, Kevin DROPPED ME like a HOT POTATO -- NEVER publishing anything about me -- and then he SCREWED Matt Bissonnette/Mark Owen -- whose BOOK HE GHOST WROTE in conjunction with the CIA!!!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Easy_Day

Matt/Mark was FORCED to give his half of the royalties to the US Government for revealing US SECRETS -- but Kevin Maurer got to KEEP HIS HALF!!!

In August 2016, Owen settled a lawsuit and agreed to pay back his royalties of US $6.8 million to the US government.^[6]

Kevin Maurer isn't just a HUGE DRINKER -- he LOVES MARIJUANA -- just like Ben Schachtman and I do!!!

And Kevin Maurer's WIFE, Jessica Maurer, is a LOUSY WRITER of "Puff Pieces" that she sells when she can -- and has TOO MANY TEETH to oralize Kevin COMFORTABLY !!!:

Jessica Maurer

I could ALWAYS catch up to Kevin Maurer to see his announcements of NEW BOOKS and articles he has sold -- even BUY BOOKS through his website: https://kevinmaurer.net/

I just found there TWO of Kevin's Agents!!!: christie@authorsunbound.com and fweimann@foliolit.com -- and will ADD THEM to MY EMAIL LISTS!!!

>>> And HERE is how Ben Schachtman GOT HIS JOB with Port City Daily !!!:

Ben shows off his HAIRY JEWISH CHEST with Tattoos -- PROVING he never PRACTICED Christianity, Judaism, or Islam!!!

BENJAMIN SCHACHTMAN is an ex-patriot of New York City, currently hiding out in an anonymous town on the Carolina coast.

He's an instructor at the Eckleburg Review Workshops , and his work has appeared in print in Anobium, The Conium Review, Dig Boston, Confingo (UK), and the Bad Version, and online at Slush Pile Magazine, Sixfold, Pif Magazine, and others.

About three weeks ago, at the suggestion of our Kayla, our drummer’s girlfriend, I put in an application to be a reporter at a local online newspaper. I didn’t much think about it at the time — while I look good on paper I’ve increasingly come to think of myself as a well-educated dirtbag .

Then the editor of the newspaper called to interview me. Then his boss. Then another interview.

I’ve finagled my way into a half-dozen restaurant jobs by lying -- and then working very hard, very fast, to make that lie true. “Have you ever broken down whole grouper?” ”Do you have much experience with Catalan cuisine?” “Can you hold down expo tonight?”

But with these interviews I told the truth. I have little experience in journalism, aside from getting into – and promptly walking away from – the J-school at Rutgers, nearly 20 years ago.

But I can write – passably, at least – and I know this town. And I’m used to working 60 hour weeks. That’s what I told them, expecting them to thank me for my time. But I kept getting moved through to the next interview.

I spent a few days reading the paper. It was definitely under new management, in the past six months it had changed. The writing was a little better, the stories less dull. Still, it was the underdog paper – not Star News , the local print paper, not the local Fox affiliate news website. I hadn’t been able to see myself as a reporter for a big paper, but an underdog, trying to fight uphill against the local New York Times affiliate and two TV news networks? That sounded about right.

I was mostly too busy to daydream but, at night, my wife and I did indulge ourselves. A little bit.

Then in the morning, back to the grind. For a week, I heard nothing.

Then one day, I was standing over Sloppy’s grave, smoking a battered joint that one of my employees had left for me. I sipped a beer and checked my email.

I got the job.

Having NEVER heard the Jewish name "Schachtman" before I "met" Ben in Wilmington, and although "Kenan" is not uncommon in North Carolina, Atlanta, GA, and Palm Beach, FL, but RARELY seen elsewhere, I checked BOTH of our names.

BOTH are HEBREW in origin, but MY ancestors began using the name in the Middle Ages in Ireland, but emigrated to Scotland -- those who remained in Ireland tend to spell it "Keenan" and are Roman Catholics -- while Kenans are Presbyterians.
