Have you been wanting to read my second novel, THE WICKED, but its $45 price tag was just too steep for you?
I don't blame you. Not at all. I'm a reader myself, *not* a collector.
But now, you guys can pick up a copy of the Signed Limited Edition (hardcover) of THE WICKED for half off its cover price . . . but act fast, as I'm sure copies are only gonna last for a few hours!
The title says it all: My first-ever short-story collection, PEOPLE ARE STRANGE, is shipping now from the publisher. PEOPLE ARE STRANGE is a signed trade paperback, a limited edition of only 250 copies.

Great news, folks! My short story collection, PEOPLE ARE STRANGE, is at the printer as we speak . . . .
This one’s gonna be a lot of fun. Here’s the Table of Contents (and each story has a little "behind-the-scene commentary" before it, which I always like to read in authors’ collections):
- Foreword by Jeff Strand (author of Pressure, Disposal, and The Sinister Mr. Corpse) - "The Honest-To-God True Story of Earl P. and a Bug Called Abraham Lincoln" - "The Good, the Bad, and the Severely Maladjusted" - "Your Cold, Black Heart" - "The Tell-Tale Fart (A Parody)" - "Bless This Meal, O Lord" - "Suffer the Children" - "Keeping Up With the Joneses" - "A Town Called Hatred" - Holy Rollers (Novella) - Holy Rollers: The Graphic Novel Art Excerpt by Keith Minnion (sneak peek at a project that never was)

Pre-Order THE FORUM Now!
Current mood: accomplished
Online message boards.
You've seen them around the Internet. Perhaps you've been a member of several. You've cursed the spammers and trolls, witnessed the flounces and the flame wars waged by faceless usernames with nothing better to do.
There are millions of message boards throughout the World Wide Web, all of them catering to different hobbies and cultures and fetishes. They are communities for people with common interests, a gathering of like minds and kindred souls . . . .
According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, there are currently over 500 active serial killers within the United States.
Somewhere out there, isn't it possible that an online message board exists for those who live outside society's rules? For those who kill for the thrill of it, and yearn for the taste of blood?
A place to swap stories . . . to boast of their exploits and discuss tricks of "the trade." A safe haven where mementos can be displayed . . . where members can learn how to hone their dark craft, and maybe make a few new friends in the process . . . .
This is THE FORUM.
My new novella, THE FORUM, is now available for pre-order over at Cemetery Dance Publications. Check it out if you think this sounds like something that might interest you:
Check it out . . . I just posted a few excerpts from various works of mine over at GoodReads.com. I have no idea if membership is required to view these (I just joined Friday night), so please let me know if you try and it doesn't work. I'm planning to just leave 'em up for a limited time anyway . . .

Check it out, guys . . . my pal Dez over at Dread Media interviewed me Saturday night. I followed none other than my favorite author of all time, Mr. Joe R. Lansdale!
I'm not worthy. :)
Fun stuff. I dropped a few hints about upcoming projects -- check it out when you get a chance!
Just a quick note to let anyone who cares know that my Halloween Party pics are now up! When you get a chance, check out my Pics section, where I've got a huge album of 'em . . . .

Check out the Profile I created a few days ago for "Andrew Holland," the protagonist from my upcoming third novel, ANIMOSITY (An American Horror Story):
Go ahead and send a Friend Request to Andy, if you'd like. Drop him a comment, say hello. He loves hearing from fans, and I can vouch for him -- he's a really nice guy. :)
Soon, Andrew Holland's gonna need all the friends he can get. 'Cause his world is going straight to hell . . . .
