Catching Up

How to summarize the last two weeks? Well, the annual World Horror Convention in Austin, Texas was one of the best conventions I've ever attended in my life. I posted my thoughts on it (during an unscheduled stay in Memphis) , and also posted a whole bunch of pics from the four-day event.

Meanwhile, Entombed sold out (as predicted) and is shipping now. The Last Zombie trade paperback arrived in stores (snag one tomorrow during Free Comic Book Day). Take The Long Way Home and A Gathering of Crows were released on Kindle (Nook and Sony editions forthcoming later this month). Issue #11 of Shroud Magazine is also available, and contains the latest installment of my Seminal Screams column.

Filming began in Baton Rouge for Ghoul, and Nolan Gould and Barry Corbin joined the cast! I made a new free book soundtrack to accompany Jack's Magic Beans. Dorchester Publishing continued to be douche-bags, but that's okay, because now we are armed with attorneys!

Over at The Keenedom, Livia Llewellyn and William Ollie were the latest authors to get forums. Please take a moment to welcome them. Other topics of interest include: "What F.U.K.U. means to you", the latest nonsense from Borders' CEO, and the proper use of Brodart book covers.

Mary's visiting this weekend, and I'm spending time with my boys for a few days next week before heading to the set of Ghoul, so updates will continue to be sporadic. Go read a book!
