We are Daddy Cool KICKSTARTER campaign. And we feel fine.

Really fine frankly. And endlessly so. But don't just take our word for it. Please listen to what the publisher Artistically Declined has to say, and please do consider supporting the campaign, it just might change your life:

"Daddy Cool is unlike any other anthology we've seen in the small press arena or otherwise: fathers (and indie writers) writing for and about kids. There's no age restriction here, you will see work spanning from middle grade to YA, and even writing on parenting itself. All this compiled into one great book, providing a unique experience that can be shared with the whole family."

The new edition of This Zine Will Change Your Life is live. All ARGGGGGGGGGG. And full of Carver.

The new edition of This Zine Will Change Your Life is live. We have new piece from old friend, ARGGGGGGGGG by Marc Carver, which we are way excited about, and, (almost) as always, photo action from Adam Lawrence, music curation from Jason Behrends and Supreme Court love from Pete Anderson. We hope you enjoy this edition and we appreciate all shout-outs and links. Finally, please note, we are hoping more of you will submit comix, and music, novel excerpts, and art, and video, yes, video, and combinations there of. And most finally, Killer Mike, right, yes.

"It's a book I read, books I read. Cause I'm addicted to literature." Killer Mike.

Don't tell us social media is good for nothing. You can get this. For free.

New joint. Is Anybody Out There. At the Metazen.

It's true. And it's much appreciated. So thank you to whole Metazen crew for that. Excerpt? Cool.

"Arguably, it’s easier to picture killing your wife, your children and yourself, than actually leaving them, which somehow seems much more destructive and impossible on the face of it.

You recognize that this is how things go wrong in those dark indie movies that Sundance loves. Someone makes a decision just like that. They choose murder over merely opening a door and walking away forever because in getting caught up in the throes of something they can’t figure out, all of that just seems easier.
But this isn’t Sundance and you know that you definitely aren’t killing anyone or going anywhere, that you and your wife are in this together until the end, bloody or otherwise."

We are The Way We Sleep Blog Tour.

We are also joined by contributors Susan L. Lin and Billy Lombardo. Which is nice. Tomorrow The Way We Sleep will be stopping by The Collagist so please do hit that as well. It just might change your life. 

Bam! New xTx yo.

Like totally new! More here. For real.

Obsessed. And full of joy.

The Way We Sleep Blog Tour is sort of coming to your town.

For real. Or not for real exactly. But The Way We Sleep Blog Tour is definitely coming to your internet. In fact, the tour kicks-off today with excerpt at The Quietus. And it will be here at This Blog Will Change Your Life on the 5th. All of which is quite fine if you think about it, and quite likely to change your life. If only briefly at that.
