Laurance Kitts did an excellent job of interviewing me over at Slit Your Wrists Magazine. Yeah, they’re not for the faint of heart, but they do good work. They published one of my stories, “Vision Quest” in their sister publication, Surreal Grotesque, and did a beautiful job of layout and design. We talked about my next book, Disintegration, as well as upcoming short story collections with Krak...

| Yes, I'm one of the MANY authors in here, but there are so many talented voices in here, big and small, that I think overall this is an excellent collection. Well worth picking up, for the variety, and to find a new voice or two. | |

Thanks for the friend request, please feel free to check out my bookshelves, quotes, friends and groups for things that might interest you or you read and forgot about.
Hey Richard, it's funny I thought we were already friends on here, I guess were just using too many social networking sites haha
Hi! Thanks for recommendation for Noir at the Bar! Though it seems not exactly my kind of book, it sounds interesting and supports a good cause! Best wishes! LET THE WONDERFUL NOISE OF THE SEA ALWAYS SOUNDS IN YOUR EARS! (a greeting of the water dragons' hunters - my Tale Of The Rock Pieces).
Mary Anita And The Second Liberation In Kenya Consider reading this book for dramatic entertainment full of African passion and flavour, culture, social life and politics.
John wrote: "You had me at "bad-ass". Just downloaded Victimized. This ought to be a fun weekend."HA. Thanks, John! Appreciate the support, hope you dig it.
Hi! Thank you for accepting my request! I'll be glad to exchange a lot of opinions, recommendations, tips, etc in the future! Best wishes! Let the wonderful noise of the sea always sounds in your ears! (a greeting of my water dragons' hunters - my 1st Tale Of the Rock Pieces).
Richard wrote: "I figure, life is short, why waste time on books you don't love?"I have the same view, mate, but I must've overestimated your ability to be disappointed. (Removes a gold star from your snobbery card.)
I'm starting with the ones I love. If I have time, I'll add in the ones I don't. I figure, life is short, why waste time on books you don't love?
ha...thanks valerie, and my book isn't even out yet...had a couple things that were up here already - sideshow fables and the vampire anthology - very cool
