DEPRAVED

My 2009 release DEPRAVED is unquestionably my most popular novel. It features backwoods cannibals, mutants, a demon, chainsaw madness, loads of action, and some of the most messed-up horror scenes ever committed to paper (virtual or otherwise). Yes, it's been around a while now, but I have a reason for highlighting this particular book again. I am currently some 30,000 words into writing a sequel that will deliver at least as much over-the-top horror madness as the first book. In the meantime, if you haven't read the original, it's easy to catch up. It's just $2.99 on Kindle.

Bitter Ale hardcover line

In my previous post I announced the publication of a new novel called 68 Kill in ebook and paperback editions.  My intent was for 68 Kill to be the first in an ongoing series of original short novels I will self-release every few months.

All of that is still very much part of my overall plan, but there is now a new wrinkle.  Thanks to Thunderstorm Books, I now have my own publishing line/imprint devoted to producing collectible hardcover limited editions of these short novels.  The line is called Bitter Ale, which is derived from the Bitter Ale Press name I've used for my ebooks.  These hardcover editions will be produced on an accelerated basis to roughly coincide with the release of the ebook and paperback editions.

Let me tell you upfront that I realize these limited hardcovers are not cheap and won't be affordable for everyone.  But there will always be an affordable edition of each of these short novels for anyone who wants to read them.  In most cases, my ebook and paperback releases will actually precede the hardcover release.  The serious collectors who do opt to buy the hardcovers likely already know that Thunderstorm Books is known for producing high quality, attractive collectible books.

68 Kill paperback

A bit of background on 68 Kill, since I haven't really talked about it here. A good 90% of my reading the last several years has been pulp crime fiction from the 40's and 50's. Some of those guys would churn out a ton of product, a few of them knocking out a novel a month. I have decided to emulate the old pulp writers by attempting to produce a new short novel every few months. 68 Kill is the first of these books. My plan is for them all to be between 50,000 and 60,000 words in length, though 68 Kill actually came in at a bit over 61,000 words. I also intend to make every title in this series available in paperback for that group of readers who still prefer that format.
