February 12th, 2010KATJA FTPB Progress and Raffle Winner
February 8th, 2010So things are still progressing nicely with Katja From The Punk Band with the pre-order phase for the book now over and the sig sheets are about to start winging their way to me.
I’m also pleased to announce that the winner of the raffle fo those who pre-ordered a hardcover copy of KFTPB is Steve Cuckney from Ramsgate in Kent so congrats to you Steve. I’ll be sticking your prize, a signed edition of the Russian translation of I-O and some of my other stories, in the post tomorrow so look out for it!
SF Site Featured Review of Cinema Spec
February 8th, 2010SF site have a review of Cinema Spec online now which features my story Nuclear Shadows.
“The ultra-short stories manage to cling together and coalesce into a strange dystopian image of what people believe Hollywood to be. They’re a quick read, but form a cohesive fantasy world that is not only an homage but a sly parody and tribute to the silver screen….”
Bonus Short Story for KATJA completed
February 3rd, 2010Just finished the very final revision (pre-editing, anyway) of FKU, the bonus short story which will feature in the special-with-a-capital-S hardcover edition of KATJA FROM THE PUNK BAND so that has now been handed over to Brett Savory over at ChiZine.
Clocked in at just under 8K which was longer than I’d originally intended but I added in a few more layers and scenes during the last week which I hope flesh out the story a little more. Hopefully it’ll be a worthwhile bonus for those of you who have bought it.
In other news I used the website www.random.org to randomly generate the number of the order of the hardcover which will win the signed Russian edition of IO – details will follow shortly on who exactly that lucky, lucky person is!
Missed out on your chance to pre-order before the January 31st deadline? Then why not pre-order the trade paperback edition now available from Amazon.com and others. (It doesn’t have the bonus short story and soundtrack listing but it does have 220 pages of Logan loveliness!)
Only 5 Days Left For Katja Pre-Orders!
January 25th, 2010
A quick reminder to anyone who hasn’t already pre-ordered their copy that my latest novel KATJA FROM THE PUNK BAND is currently still available for pre-order at HorrorMall.com but only for the next 5 days! After that you will only be able to get your own copy of the hardcover by theft, the black market or possibly time travel.
This exclusive edition features a brand-new story, FKU, written specifically for the hardcover as well as a soundtrack listing for anyone wanting to accompany it!
Not only that but anyone who places a pre-order will be entered into a prize-draw for a signed copy of the extremely rare Russian translation of my work which features all of the stories from I-O as well as several more from Nothing Is Inflammable. It’s a cool little book with a bizarre little cover and you have a chance of winning a copy by heading over to HorrorMall now!
If you’ve like my work in the past then you should hopefully love this – and remember to recommend it to anyone else you think might be interested. Just tell them quickly!
KTFB was HorrorMall’s second top-selling book during November when it was first released so lets make sure it has a strong finish and get it to the top in January too!
