Fistful of Feet by Jordan Krall
Here's my review of Jordan Krall's latest, Fistful of Feet:
Jordan Krall's third release and first full-length novel is a must for spaghetti and weird western fans. I've never actually read a western novel but I find many of the movies to be plodding and dull to the point that most of the characters and plots are nakedly obvious in the first few minutes, thus beginning an endless barrage of the protaganist asserting his masculinity. Krall brings something new. The framework still draws heavily...

Like a 3-Legged Dog Dying of Cancer
The prologue to the actual story called, "A 3-Legged Dog Dying of Cancer," (forthcoming) here are some photos from the 2009 BizarroCon in gloomy yet still scenic Portland, Oregon:
Link to photos because there are just too many to post here...
Two announcements, entirely unrelated to BizarroCon, are coming soon. Stay tuned...

I Was Thinking That Maybe...
I'm scheduled to be on The Funky Werepig, hosted by seductive Blood Lord Greg Hall, Sunday, November 8 at 9PM EST. Call in or listen from home or listen to the podcast at a time that's more convenient. I will probably mumble, then overenunciate, and use a lot of sentences that trail off without ever actually ending. Sound exciting? Here's the link:

You Probably Shouldn't Wear That
My novel, The Beard, is now available as a trade paperback.
Here's a description for it:
Seven-year-old David Glum watches as his grandfather is abducted by a legendary herd of elephants. Twenty years later, after failing to sell his novel to a New York publisher, David returns to his parents' home to focus on growing a beard, a goal he feels sure he can accomplish. Once the beard reaches a respectable girth, uncontrollable things begin happening around him. His mother dies… maybe. His father ...

The Sorrow King Lettered
The Sorrow King lettered edition is now up for pre-order. I'm working closely with the publisher (Cargo Cult Press) to make this a very interesting offering.
Also, there are still copies of the limited edition available. The pre-order period will probably end in a couple of weeks.
And while you're at Horror Mall pre-ordering all of my fantastic, can't-live-without books, you should think about registering for The Haunt. The Haunt is a social networking site with an emphasis on horror books and ...

He Hit Me In the Head and I Saw God or Something Like It or Maybe It Was Just Blackness
Here are some random pages from the manuscript of The Sorrow King:
