WOOOO DOGGIE! BUDDY EBSEN NOW WRITING ROMANCE NOVELS
LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) – January 11, 2001 – “Beverly Hillbilly” Buddy Ebsen is turning author with a new novel. The 92-year-old Ebsen has just finished a love story titled “Kelly’s Quest” (1stbooks), which tells the story of a strong-willed female Hollywood stagehand who begins a quest for “Mr. Right.” Ebsen says the lead character was inspired by a female electrician who worked on the set of his 1970s-era detective show “Barnaby Jones.” However, the novel isn’t exactly rated PG. One passage begins: “Kelly watched them doing it on the bed. There were brief flashes of nakedness from beneath the covers and panting, moaning sounds from the girl’s parted lips.” Ebsen doesn’t think fans of his family-oriented TV shows will mind his literary references to “Kelly’s well-formed, jeans-filling, derriere” because, as he puts it, “I don’t use words that you don’t find in any other book or motion picture.”
