VAGABONDAGE PRESS BOOKS WILL PUBLISH MY FIRST HORROR NOVEL, BAD APPLE

BAD APPLE Not all things in the orchard are safe to pick.

Today is my 40th birthday (that’s right, I’m just a few months older than Walt Disney World), and what a present I got this year! I’m thrilled to announce that Vagabondage Press Books has just picked up my first horror novel, BAD APPLE.

BAD APPLE will be released this year in print and electronic versions. We’re in the very early stages now, so I don’t have many more details, but I will keep you all posted—I know this book has been anticipated by many of you for a long time.

Vagabondage has been publishing The Battered Suitcase since 2008; BAD APPLE is part of the debut of their novel, novella, and novelette line. If you’d like more information about Vagabondage, visit their website: http://www.vagabondagepress.com/index.html

“WATERPROOF” IN WINTER 2010 ISSUE OF THE BATTERED SUITCASE!

My short story “Waterproof”—which Battered Suitcase editor Fawn Neun called “eerily touching”—is now available in the magazine’s Winter 2010 Issue! This story was part of my Bachelor’s thesis at Burlington College and was written in 2006. It stayed hidden in a drawer for many years, and after many people who had read early versions of it asked me when it would be available in print, I went in search of a home for it earlier this year. The Battered Suitcase was it!

The great thing about The Battered Suitcase is that there is a version of each issue for every taste and budget. From their website:

“WATERPROOF” SLATED FOR THE BATTERED SUITCASE

My short story, “Waterproof”—a tale of mascara, macabre and mischief at a “funeral factory”—has just been accepted by The Battered Suitcase for one of its upcoming issues. I’ll keep you posted, but until then, you can check out The Battered Suitcase at http://www.vagabondagepress.com/.
