meat curtains versus pretty peckers

A few recent search terms that have led to this blog have been 'pretty peckers' and 'Nellie Oleson banana curls'. The latter is most likely related to some mention of my short series of Nellie Oleson poems (one of which is supposedly forthcoming in 'Side of Grits' and one of which was just accepted for the premiere issue of 'Bone Bouquet' and a few others of which are crying out for revision), but don't ask me about the former.

You can ask me about meat curtains, though, or at least abut my recen

I've been busily working on my first-ever grant application and am looking forward to completing it, so I can devote more time to other projects. In the wings--promo writing for CutThroat Entertainment and the next Blood Pudding Press chapbook, 'the spare room' by Dana Guthrie Martin.

lace-oriented paranoia barterdom

I've been adding quite a lovely little assortment of vintage laces to the Blood Pudding Press shop, just in case you're interested in such affairs. The hand sewn and hand crocheted laces are selling like lacey little hotcakes; not so much the machine-fabricated laces, but those are pretty too.

1. I am going to start working on some volunteer projects of a writing/editing/promotional nature for a new independent film-making company called CutThroat Entertainment. Their first movie, a horror flick, has already wrapped filming and is scheduled to premiere this coming October. Their second movie, a documentary about an ordinary guy trying to work his way into the c

I posted some Blood Pudding Press scoopage on the Blood Pudding Press blog. Click bloody telekinetic girl to slurp it up.

I'd also like to mention that the summer issue of Melusine went live last night and includes a rather squalid new poem by yours truly, as well as a new review of my full-length book, 'Horrific Confection:

I reorganized the look of this site a bit, particularly the right hand side bar, to hopefully be a tad more user-friendly. I also added a couple sections for my local content articles and travel articles. Hopefully, I'll be adding more content to those sections soon. In the meantime, if you desire to read more articles by yours truly, might I recommend that you pay a visit to the Blood Pudding Press blog (just click that lovely bloody telekinetic female to your right) and check out THAT right ha

It's a free, downloadable e-book. After you click the link above, you'll see a little box of information about Dusie Issue 8. Look to the right of that box for the download button.

Enjoy!
