About Me |
|
| I am a writer man.
Currently, HOUSE OF HOUSES , SHALL WE GATHER AT THE GARDEN? , OCEAN OF LARD (co-written with Carlton Mellick III), GRAPE CITY , and THE GREATEST FUCKING MOMENT IN SPORTS are my books from Eraserhead Press . I've had a lot of short fiction published since 1995. Biggest short fiction credit = a story in THE MAMMOTH BOOK OF LEGAL THRILLERS, published by Carroll and Graf in the US and Constable and Robinson in the UK. I also edit BARE BONE , an anthology series for Raw Dog Screaming Press . A story from the first issue was reprinted in THE MAMMOTH BOOK OF BEST NEW HORROR 13. Also, quite a few stories (including five in #9, and four apiece in the three previous issues) have received honorable mentions in THE YEAR'S BEST FANTASY AND HORROR. I do not eat chimpanzees. |
