21st Century Ghosts - Joe Hill discussion
Introductions

Anyway, thanks Becky and great to see you here!
My intro: Well, I'm Chris and a fan of Joe Hill. I've read 20th Century Ghosts and Heart-Shaped Box and I'm definitely a fan. I hope to read Horns very soon.

I've already cancelled my hotel reservations, but I'm going to try to go if I can, and just wing a hotel, maybe. It's not looking promising at this point. Low estimates are for 6 inches of snow. >:(
*sigh*

I've read Heart Shaped Box, 20th Century Ghost and Throttle which he wrote with dear old dad. I can not wait to read Horns, especially since I read Rachel's review!
Thanks, Chris.

Funny how the three that did the mini-read of 20th Century Ghosts are the first in the new group.



I'm Betsy and I'm a HUGE Joe Hill fan. Started HSB way back when and only got a couple of chapters in when someone said "Hey...you know that's SK's son." By the time I finished it I was convinced that I had just read a book by a guy who was going to be one of the greats. I joined his message board and being the 100th member he awarded me with a signed copy of 20thCG (the original paperback)! So not only is he a great writer, but he's probably the most generous!
PS...The message board is pretty close to having it's 1000th member. Don't know if Joe will do the same thing, but it wouldn't hurt to try!

And there's my co-conspirator, Betsy Boo.....
"We're all in this together"
oh wait. That's not Joe Hill. That's his brother.

I'm Betsy and I'm a HUGE Joe Hill fan. Sta..."
I miss the message board, been reading the blog but haven't been on the board since it was hacked. I won 4 signed paperback anthologies of sci-fi stories edited by Peter Crowther (who i think is Hill's editor?) in last March's Love Your Indie Contest. That was fun, be nice if he did it again.



Definitely, Kandice! He's great!

I've only read Heart Shaped Box and I loved it so I'm very happy that Chris invited me...even though its public and I could have joined without permission. I'm getting Horns from Bomc2 (or whatever) and it should be arriving shortly.


^5's Chris for recommending Joe.


Chris, I listen once in awhile, and when I do I'm glad that I did...even though you're my reading 'enabler' lol. But if it's any consolation, I've been addicted to reading since I was 4 years old, kind of a hard habit to kick after that long...and I'm glad you only provide the high grade stuff ;)

Well, seeing as I'm the first, besides you, I'll go ahead and get things rolling!
I'm Becky. I ♥ Joe Hill, and I am devastated that STUPID SNOW is going to keep me from meeting him this weekend. :(
But I'm happy to be in another group with Chris, because he rocks. :)
