Earlier I announced new things are coming for Raw Dog Screaming Press -- not the least of which is the rerelease of my novel Play Dead in paperback and ebook in the year to come. As proof of their new energy, here's a sneak graphic that you can dig: the bold cover art by Bradley Sharp for the book, COG by K. Ceres Wright, a cyberpunk title coming in Summer 2013 -- debuting the new science-fiction line, Dog Star Books.

Dexter Notes

I've been a longtime fan of the Dexter series on Showtime, and a new season (#7) is going to begin in about a month. I unfortunately don't subscribe to Showtime, having caught it through Netflix and Amazon Video on Demand in the past. But last month I picked up the entire run of the whole series (when I spotted it as a blu ray deal of the week on Amazon) and have begun watching it all over again, deliberately, studying this serial killer series for whatever new observations I can make the second time around and to uncover any lessons…

The Books Page is Alive

I've made some good progress on the new bibliography/book catalog for gorelets.com -- not complete yet, but most of the titles in print are ready to view. You can get to them through the "Books and Other Creative Works" button at the top of this page. Surprises lurk therein, from audio samples to downloadable excerpts to extended tables of contents and great photos. I've been slowly updating the entire website at gorelets.com this summer. I recently updated my bio page with some funky photos and updates, for instance, and I've set up a youtube channel (see the micro-buttons in the…
