“People say they want to read about life but that's not what they want at all. They want a version of life. Don't you realize, someone else's version of someone else's life is still fiction? It's still a story. But it has no imagination. That's what you people have done. You've murdered imagination.”
― Andersen Prunty, The Driver's Guide to Hitting Pedestrians
― Andersen Prunty, The Driver's Guide to Hitting Pedestrians

Thanks, Jasmine. Which book was it?
Andersen wrote: "Howdy, Gaffa."Hi Andy. How's things in Dayton? Fantastic, I hope. I better get my ass into gear and get me copies of Overwhelming Urge and TNTMMAS and get reviewing for ya! I'm sure they'll both be as good as I have come to expect from the amazing Mr. Prunty! And if you could read and rate my first published short (Boneyard Smack), I'd be forever in your debt!
Take care, my friend!

sure thing. thank YOU for generously putting it out for free and writing it and things. it was crazy and good. a good kind of crazy or something.
Thanks for the reply1 :) Have palypal-will hook up in a month or two then!!!! Always get a few signed books from writers like you--not well known, but write great. Quimby's is such an experience--the range and depth of their shelves and the zines are amazing. they change around the shop every year or two. It my co-workers went in there, they would be disgusted! LOL!!! Thgey are so up tight, but they would never think i would adore shopping a store like that EVER!I recommend a zine "The Inner Swine". You cane goggle it-it is on-line. Great writing by one ego.
love the pics from the Q!! Was that the first time you were there? I just adore the place--it drains my wallet every time. I was wondering if i can get signed books from you later this year. I would cover postage. Just email me me the how or the no. thanks. Sorry I could not get anyone to work for me that night.
Hi Andersen!(LOVED your blog post, Market Adjustment Signature Sheets and The Signing Thereof , BTW) I don't get to Goodreads nearly as often as I'd like because I'm writing my 4th book. So, I wanted to make sure and stop by and let you know that I am thrilled to be your friend here! Are you on twitter? My twitter name is: linc0lnpark
Have a fantastic day!
-L-
I was wondering what books will be featured at the signing event? Thanks! Just want to know what titles, so to know how much to bring? :)
Do you really mean AM for the Quimby event?!? breakfast there would be coolth and biarrzo to the tenth level there, but I think you mean PM. Just wanted to double check with you for sure.
Hi, Andersen...thanks for the invite into your circle of friends...CONGRATS on on your novels...good luck to you with any/all future writings...looking forward to sharing chats, reviews and any/all recommendations...have a blessed week...and Happy Reading & Writing :-)

Hey douche bag! Here's some spam for you:My second release from Eraserhead Press, Zerostrata, is now available from:
Amazon
Barnes and Noble
My Website
Here’s a description:
After ten years, Hansel Nothing returns to his boyhood home, unable to remember anything that has happened to him since he left. Back home, he stays in Zerostrata, a treehouse in the backyard. The nothing family is as dysfunctional and depressed as ever. His mother keeps a cat on her head and incessantly munches prescription medication. His father has left the house to pursue a career as a superhero. His brother has become a shut-in, brooding in the darkened basement. Hansel realizes, after a life of sadness, a life only half-remembered, the only thing he wants is for himself and his family to be happy. But what type of bizarre world must he enter to obtain this happiness?
Hi Andersen,Good to meet you. I'm looking forward to trading recommendations for great thrillers.
I just received the cover art for my next book and it looks fantastic. A Demon Awaits will be ready for press in a few weeks!
