THIS CAMPAIGN ONLY RUNS FOR TWO WEEKS! DON'T PASS IT UP!
Man, it's been a busy few weeks for me. Writing-wise, at least. And I haven't updated this blog thingeroo so I'm cramming it all into one information-packed post. THE POST YOU'RE READING RIGHT NOW! Let me quit jabbering and start with the news:
One I HAVE A NEW BOOK COMING OUT SOON AND HERE IS YOUR FIRST LOOK AT THE FUCKING COVER:
Here's the info on that so far: 1. It's called Stranger Danger.
2. It contains two novellas, one by Kevin Strange and one from myself (hence the title).
3. My novella is called Roadvolution, and it's fucking awesome.
4. It's coming out through Strangehouse Books.
5. It'll be released in late-April/early-May. No exact date yet, but stay tuned for details.

Since we're on the subject of Stranger Danger, this past Saturday Kevin and I did a live drunken AMA on youtube, hosted by the one and only Fabulous Raye. It was a total shitshow. I was drunk before we started and hammered by the end. But if you want more info on Stranger Danger, or are a masochist, you can view all two hours of that nonsense right here:

I have a new short story out! And it's free on the interwebs for you to read. It's called THEY CALL HIM BIGFOOT AVERT YOUR EYES NO AUTOGRAPHS PLEASE. You can find that at my all-time favorite online lit-mag Jersey Devil Press. I had submitted that story for a special issue for JDP founder Eirik Gumeny who is currently awaiting a lung transplant. It's sort of a benefit issue, not only to honor Eirik himself, but to help raise the funds he needs to pay for the operation and the aftercare. So, if you're the type of person who wants to help out a good friend and great writer, consider donating HERE to his COTA fundraiser. Seriously. Give. I'm not saying hand him your first born, but every little bit helps.
[Speaking of Eirik, he's got a new book out too! The THIRD novel in his hilariously inappropriate Exponential Apocalypse series, called HIGH VOLTAGE. You'd be a dumb dummy if you don't pick up a copy of this motherfucker's book this very instant!]
OKAY - that's about it, I think. A lot of info thrown at you and I don't feel like recapping it all, so if you do want a recap, just scroll back up to the top of this page and read the post all over again. Just click on all the links I dropped, okay? That's what's important here.
Anyway, Dangerlings, thank you, as always, for reading. I love each and every one of you more than you know.
Stop reading this right now and head on over to Jersey Devil Press where you can read the the first chapter of Love Me! For free!
When your done, you can donate your hard-won dollars to Jersey Devil Press and recieve a paperback copy of Love Me and a copy of Eirik Gumeny and Stephen Schwegler's e-book, Screw The Universe! That's two books for the price of...well...er...two. But they're very good books. I promise.
And don't forget, kids, AUGUST 9TH is Love Me's official release date! That's so close! Holy crap! Start saving your lunch money!!!
Yes, August 9 will be the official release date of LOVE ME!
It will be available as a paperback and an e-book. Oh, and did I mention there are illustrations in it by the renegade-viking of the art world Shawn Vales?
How excited are you! Hopefully you're so excited you want to empty your pockets right now because Jersey Devil Press is having a fundraiser! For the generous sum of $25 you will get a free pass into Heaven, plus a paperback copy of LOVE ME and an e-book by the very talented Eirik Gumeny and Stephen Schwegler called SCREW THE UNIVERSE! With a title like that, there's no way it could be bad! These books will arrive at your home wrapped in floral-scented tissue paper and/or digitally encoded files a whole freakin' week before they're released! You'll be the first of your friends to say 'I got these two books no one has heard of!'
Of course, you don't have to give. You can always buy LOVE ME in August when it comes out. But for just $.83 a day, the cost of a cup of highly-deadly plutonium, wouldn't you like the satisfaction of knowing you helped a starving on-line magazine find a loving owner [*insert sad Sarah McLachlan song here*]?
I guess what I'm really trying to say to with all of this is BE PREPARED TO BUY MY BOOK SOON BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T I'M GOING TO KARATE CHOP YOU IN THE NECK AND IT'S GOING TO BE A VERY UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE! AUGUST 9TH, FUCKFACE! MARK YOUR CALENDER!
