Yes, this is a commercial. (I'm so sorry.)


A lot of people consider it low class when authors are constantly pimping their own books.  Yup.  I get it.  And I try not to put people on the spot.  On Twitter or Facebook when I link to Amazon, it's usually because my publisher is offering the book for a low price, and I want people to be aware of a bargain.  I try not to shove the books into people's faces, screaming BUY BUY BUY.

“Fifty-one hybrids and ten MINI coopers. We're the most eco-friendly assault force in history.”
Victor Gischler, Go-Go Girls of the Apocalypse

“She was like some kind of Energizer Bunny nonstop bitch machine...She needed three more husbands, so we could all take shifts listening to her.”
Victor Gischler, The Deputy

“Mortimer had maxed three credit cards stocking the cave with canned goods and medical supplies and tools and everything a man needed to live through the end of the world. There were more than a thousand books along shelves in the driest part of the cave. There used to be several boxes of pornography until Mortimer realized that he'd spent nearly ten days in a row sitting in the cave masturbating. He burned the dirty magazines to keep from doing some terrible whacking injury to himself.”
Victor Gischler, Go-Go Girls of the Apocalypse
