Edgar, Al & Poe


Edgars awards announced. Tryin to get somebody to weigh in on 'em over at Ransom Notes. Thanks, BTW to everybody who does drop a comment on my squeaky-clean stylings over there - especially Keith Rawson who dropped a tasty phrase up there and I had to do some snipping on his comment. To be fair, the content of that particular squeaky clean post was necrophilia - don't blame me, it was in J.T. Ellison's book - so when K dropped the bestiality bomb it wasn't too huge it was simply the way it was phrased. So, keep it something you could say on prime time network TV circa 1985 and we'll all be happy.

Cool news. Matthew Louis the deranged mind behind the extra sticky pulp magazine Out of the Gutter has put up an official site for his new book press Gutter Books. The first title will be a best, sorry, worst of OOTG's first three issues. (Next spring will see the worst of issues 4-6 which I'm told will feature one of my own pieces - nice) Anyway, go check out the new press and order something nasty.

More coolness. The trailer for Winter's Bone is up.

And Lou Boxer has a list of panelists for NoirCon.

And to fill out my insanely clever title for this post - Guthrie and Mark Z. Danielewski's sister.

Whaddayawant? I'm in a hurry.

Really hard having Megan there. Hate to tread on her territory. But it's my hometown and I haven't been there in five years. Tough decision. Plus DND 2 is being premiered there and I have a story in it.

Who is this "Megan" you speak of? Think something would be missing without you there

Ya need to go, Patti. It's going to be too much fun. Plus, Kieran's promising a culinary tour of the city while we're there.

And sorry you had to edit, dude, I'll keep clean from now on.

Rawson - I wouldn't want you clean. This shit's supposed to be Raw Son, right?

hey, I can give you a tour of my teenage haunts. I was a member of a gang, you know.
