Cover Reveals
As I mentioned in my last newsletter, I have acquired the rights to a few of my indie-published books. ONLY PSYCHOS has already been released and the next two books slated for re-release are A GIFT OF DEATH and the sequel, BLACK HEARTS AND RED TEETH. These books follow some nasty vampires who travel around the country eating and fucking their way through immortality. When I messaged C.V. Hunt about these covers, I told her I was looking for a punk rock theme for AGOD and a nightclub poster feel for BHART. Well, CV did an amazing job, using some wild colors to make these covers absolutely pop. I don’t have an official release date yet, but I’d expect both books to be available on Amazon and my store before the end of the year.
Ghoulastic Book Fair
At the beginning of the month, I attended my first-ever Ghoulastic book fair. Just think of the old-school Scholastic book fairs we had as kids and make all the books horror. This event was awesome and well run. Chris Enterline and Mike Lombardo ran this flawlessly and made everyone feel welcome. The staff at Lovedrafts Brewery were top-notch, and their food and beer was excellent. This is definitely an event to mark on your calendars for next year.
One highlight of the event was talking with Brian Keene and Mary SanGiovanni. Both of them are talented authors and very supportive of the indie horror scene. So much so, that they’ve decided to open a brick-and-mortar bookstore. VORTEX books and comics will be opening in southern Pennsylvania early next year. I can’t wait to see what they create.
Thank you to all of my wonderful patrons.
