I NEVER EAT...CHEESESTEAK by PAUL LUBACZEWSKI available for PRE-ORDER



Paul Lubaczewski will be appearing in our upcoming anthology, Kids of the Black Hole; A Punksploitation Anthology (available July 3rd), but before that, his debut novel, I Never Eat...Cheesesteak (50/50 Press LLC), is out June 10th and you can pre-order right NOW.
 
They say life is what happens when you're making other plans. It is also what happens when you need cash to record a demo, but that isn't as catchy in a song, or a meme. Al was coasting through life without a plan or a clue when he was offered a way to make quick cash without doing anything illegal, mainly because killing vampires is not technically against any laws. If he agrees he jump starts his musical career, but on the downside he has to combat the forces of undead evil, including their horrific fashion sense. Will Al survive? Will his punk rocker sister Angie finally dump her loser boyfriend? Will Al's girlfriend come to her senses and dump him? Will Al's gruff partner Abdiel become "woke"? (depends on your definition) Will the citizens of Philadelphia discover the dark festering evil that lurks in their very city?(other than Eagles fans) Will anyone eat an actual cheesesteak? The only way to find out is to read this book, because there will probably never be a Cliff Notes for this one!
I Never Eat...Cheesesteak sounds fun as hell and Paul's tale "I Love Livin' in the City," his contribution to Kids of the Black Hole, certainly is! Follow Paul on TWITTER to stay up to date on all his latest work.

THE GRAY MAN IS OUT NOW

What do you do when your family becomes your prison? Tim Murr, the author of Neon Sabbath, Motel on Fire, and City Long Suffering, takes you to a small town in East Tennessee, where a young family move into a home where a predatory spirit lies in wait with generations of tragic secrets pulsating just under the surface. THE GRAY MAN is Murr's most personal work to date and also his most horrifying.

My new novella, The Gray Man, is now live on both e and paperback formats, fiends! Featuring a gorgeous cover by Stephanie Murr, who also did the covers for Motel on Fire, Neon Sabbath, Conspiracy of Birds, and To Be One With You.

Becky Narron from Deadman's Tome Publishing said The Gray Man is "a wild, tense ride you won't forget...brilliantly written..."

THE GRAY MAN COVER REVEALED

My wife, Stephanie, who previously created the covers for my books Conspiracy of Birds, Motel on Fire, and Neon Sabbath, as well as the anthology To Be One With You, among many other Stranger With Friction related projects, has handed over her cover for my upcoming novella, The Gray Man.

Copyright 2019 Stephanie Murr/St Rooster Books

"This house has a history. Houses with a history tend to have a lot to say."

Synopsis; In their early 20s, with three kids under five, the Martins are on the move a lot, because of the father's job. The mother is beginning to feel her family is a prison. The oldest boy is feeling increasingly lonely and isolated. The young family, already nearing a breaking point, moves into an old rental home, where a malevolent spirit will test the tenuous bond of their marriage and the relationship between parent and child.


"A wild tense ride you won’t forget. Old yellow eyes is the stuff true nightmares are made from. Brilliantly written with a cast of characters you feel like are part of your family. Totally engrossing."-Becky Narron-
Deadman’s Tome Publishing
The Gray Man is slated for a late March release, stay tuned for more details.
