Does This Make Me a Modern Man Now?

So I decided it was finally time to venture into the world of Facebook and created an author page which, of course, doesn't have much content on it yet. So if anyone is reading this and wants to "Like" me (unless, of course, you don't actually like me), that would be awesome.
I might just do all of my publishing updates on that page and just keep the blog for actual writing, but I haven't completely decided yet. Probably wouldn't hurt to keep that stuff here as well, though, for those who may not do the Facebook thing (i.e. me until yesterday).

Here is my page:

Press Release and Author List for Splatterlands Anthology

Splatterlands is a new anthology set to be released sometime this Fall by Grey Matter Press. I've been very excited for this, not only because Grey Matter is self-proclaiming this as "Reawakening the Splatterpunk Revolution," but also because one of my favorite stories I've written (called "Party Guests") is set to be included within its pages! Anyone who knows me is likely aware that many of the first wave Splatterpunk authors are some of my hugest influences, so it's an honor to be carrying on the torch of such a subversive genre of horror.

Here's a link to the official website for Splatterlands, as well as the press release:

More info to come on this collection once it has been officially released.

New Short Published on The Newer York

Just had a little piece published on a cool site called The Newer York, in their Electric Encyclopedia of Experimental Literature. This one is a personal favorite of mine, an excerpt that is a bit of a pastiche of the J. Peterman catalog. It's called "Steel-Toe Workboots for the Fashion-Conscious Neo-Nazi."
