I've been so busy getting Mr. Moon's Nightmares all cleaned up and published (Mere days away, I assure you, my friends) that I've neglected to mention some of the other projects I'm involved in this year. As far as years go, this one is fittin' to be wicked!
First up, my story "Conversing Doctor DeFeo" is in Jason Baker's Abandoned. Jason Baker is a very talented photographer that specializes in decrepit....uh, abandoned buildings. He invited five different young horror writers to write a story based on a folder of photos. The result is a book that oozes the creepy. T.H. Davis, Todd Martin, Stephen W. Roberts, Seb Naylor, and I each have a story inspired by Jason's eerie photos. Five very different writers plus Mr. Baker's haunting photos creates one hell of a experience for you. And best of all, I've been invited back for the next one! Mr. Baker plans on having it ready by September.
You can order Abandoned here....

I'm very, very proud of my story "Notches On A Tomahawk" and it's slot in The Zombist. Seriously, this big-bad-mama-jama is 30 (!!!!!) different Wild West Zombie stories! I'm along side one of my favorite writers, Eric S. Brown, and a grip of my brothers and sisters from over at The Library of the Living Dead. I predict you needing at least three copies of this. Should be out within the next few months!



I was lucky enough to get a chance at a two writer collaboration these past few months and I gotta say, "it was crazier than Robin Williams on crack." Timothy W. Long (Among the Living and The Zombie-Wilson Diaries) and I hashed out and hammered flat the single most insane thing I've ever been apart of, The Apocalypse and Satan's Glory Hole. This book has elements of horror, Bizarro, satire, and is above else violently funny. And yes, I said that with a straight face, violently funny, okay, that time I giggled, but it's still true. As it turns out not only is Tim Long an extremely funny and talented dude but he is just an over-all mad man. He gave our monster (113k words!) TWO editing passes before sending it to the editor! And he made this wicked ole blog for you, just for you.....

I'm currently keeping my self busy writing short stories for Mr. Moon's Nightmares Volume 2 and a second even stranger collection I'm using the working title "Babylonians in Bethlehem" for. As well as a MONSTER collab with eighteen other writers on ONE big ass novel! I'll keep you posted but you can follow Matt Nord's blog about it here....
