Let Play Books With Friends!

It was a crazy end-of-year here, but 2014 proved remarkably productive. The first fruits of my last year's labors should be hitting the shelves this spring. Here's hoping everyone had a great holiday season, and in case you still have leftover Christmas money, why not give these up and coming releases by my friends and colleagues a try:




A Dark and Winding Road by Matthew Weber
Amazon Link
11 weird, wonderful, and sometimes disgusting tales by my very talented critique partner. Although when he launched this book, he packaged it in a barf bag, the stories aren't splatter-punk gore. This book satisfies my desire for justice to be served. In Weber's world, if you're a jerk, you get what you deserve. I like that world, and I like his work.












Tales of a Goth Librarian II by Kimberly Richardson
Amazon link
A second volume of disturbingly beautiful short stories by the author of The Decembrists. Richardson has an intriguing "literary" style that makes reading her work something like drinking a very fine wine in very expensive crystal. (Although she would prefer absinthe to a cabernet.) I liked the first volume of her work so much I bought copies for Christmas presents. (If you received a copy of that book from me, then THIS is the woman I was telling you about!)
