New Book Announced, New Short Story Published, New Interview...Interviewed?

How goes it, Dangerlings?

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.

Two
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:

Three
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.

Danger!

Free Love (Me)!

Good Evening, You Beautiful Monsters!

That is all,

Two New Stories!

Good Morning Faithful Readers!

I'm going to skip the usual theatrics (sorry, no donkey show this week, folks) and get right to the meat of the matter. NEW STORIES!!!!

First up, some new flash fiction up at The Flash Fiction Offensive:

WEREHAND - you know, like a werewolf...but with a hand...

And secondly, an epic new story up at none other than the greatest lit-mag on the dark side of the internet Jersey Devil Press:

RED HOT PANDA LOVE - it's a story of science, sex, religion and pandas. This is one of my personal favorites and if you consider yourself a fan of mine, I implore you to check it out.

There you go. Fun for the whole family. You have lots of reading to do. I'll leave you to it.

Until we meet again,
Danger!

Two Things!

Hello y'all.

Two quick things for you today:

#1. I have a new poem out called ODE TO BANANA at Clutching At Straws. I'm not much of a poet, but they like their verse weird over there, so on that front, I am happy to deliver.

ODE TO BANANA

#2. Jersey Devil Press has a new book out! Well, it's not exactly a new book as it came out in e-format a 2 months ago, but it's new in paperback, which is good news for you Luddites out there who enjoy books that eventually will rot. That is, unless you're really, REALLY a Luddite, in which case you probably only like your books in stone tablet form. I'm getting off topic here. What I'm trying to say is buy the paperback version SCREW THE UNIVERSE, the latest novel from Stephen Schwegler and Eirik Gumeny. I read it. It's funny as shit. Funny as clown shit, even.

SCREW THE UNIVERSE

Good times. Good times.

Love Me Announced!

That's right, kids.  My debut novel has been annouced!
It's called LOVE ME and it will be released by none other than the greatest jersey-devil-related-online-literary-magazine in the past three years, Jersey Devil Press!  Check it out HERE!!!
Now, I know you all have a million questions:
1. What's it about?
2. When will it be released?
3. I want lunch!
4. Who are you?
To answer:
1. I'm not telling.  But think Candide meets the Toxic Avenger on a low-budget porn set while David Lynch and Kurt Vonnegut argue over the script in the background.
2. It's coming out this summer.  No release date yet, but I can assure you, there is currently an army of mad scientists dilligently working on it as we speak, making sure every comma, every colon, every sphincter is securely in place.
3. That's not a question.  But check your fridge.
4. And who am I?  I'm Danger_Slater, motherfucker.  You're on my webpage.

More details to come.

Click it!

Love,
Me.
