+ GORELETS: THE BOOK!
You can now order Gorelets:
Unpleasant Poems (52 short horror
poems in a format all their own) in
collectable print editions or as an e-
book with a bonus chapbook’s worth of
“extra unpleasantness”! Only 52 copies
of the signed/lettered edition ($9.99)
will be printed and it’s likely to sell out
VERY fast. Don’t despair: the standard
edition costs just $7.99. Both are
available now from Fairwood Press or
Shocklines Bookstore. The e-book is a
cheap alternative for just $4.99 directly
from Double Dragon Publishing.

+ COOL BADNESS
Gorelets.com was SciFi.Com’s”Cool
Pick of the Web”
from Sept 25th-30th!

My parody of Martha Stewart, DYING,
made Shocklines Bookstore’s
bestseller list
this week! That’s
obviously a good thing.

A new interview with Arnzen for The
Dream People
magazine’s “Extreme
Horror” issue includes sample stories
from the upcoming book, 100 Jolts!

+ SPORTUARY UPDATE
The publisher of my sports-related
horror poetry e-book, CyberPulp, has
encountered unforeseen delays, but
promises me that the title will be
available before Halloween. Keep your
eyes on the preview page for updates.

+ FREAKCIDENTS UPDATE
I know many you have been waiting for
this one. So have I. If Dark Vesper
Publishing does not produce
Freakcidents by October 19th (five days
from the day I write this), then my
contractual obligation to them ceases
and I will turn to another company who
is already waiting in the wings. Want to
order but uncertain? Don’t fret! Order
this book through Shocklines.com and
you won’t be charged a dime until the
book ships to your door
. This collection
of poetry about mutants is one of my
personal favorites, and reviewers who
have read advanced copies have just
loved it. So I still have high hopes for
Freakcidents and I thank those of you
who have been waiting for it for your
patience.

+ OCTOBER RUSHES AT YOU
Dark poetry fans might be in the mood
for a neat new media collection that I’m
in, called October Rush. It includes a
favorite poem of mine, “Death Shroud
Fashion Show”and a collaborative
work with Kurt Newton…and tons of
poems by some talented writers!

+ THE ARNZEN SEMINARS
What are “The Arnzen Seminars”? Not
as weird as you think. A new series of
occasional columns on writing for Gila
Queen’s Guide to Markets
. If you’re a
writer you should check out this trade
magazine!

+ NOT DEAD YET
Caution: I’ll be removing the offer for
signed copies of DYING from the front
of gorelets.com within the month. So if
you want one, now’s the time to order.

+ I’M STOKED!
Thanks to every HWA member reading
this who has nominated The Goreletter
for the Bram Stoker Award in “Alternate Forms” so far. This
newsletter currently tops the Stoker
charts with the most recommendations!
But it’s early in the game…
