My website at gorelets.com is finally restored…and a smidge improved. Perhaps even jaunty.

Back online at gorelets.com Drop by anytime. You'll be fine. It's really all better now and no longer contagious.  A sneaky piece of malware had climbed under the blanket of my website, slipping inside the code of my online gallery, and it spread like mating bedbugs. The malware would use my site to ping off russian spambots behind the scenes and replicate whenever a visitor hit a page on the site.  But I've burned the mattress and it's all back up now, squeaky clean.

Gorelets.com will be down this weekend for maintenance

My website, gorelets.com is currently down for roughly 48 hours of maintenance. I will post an update here when the status changes. A piece of malware was discovered in the system that was running the gallery on the site. It is not a virus that can harm any visitor's machine, but it did corrupt files on my server and was spreading wantonly.  Beyond this, the worst thing this malware could do was redirect visitors to spam sites at random times. I am in the process of purging and scrubbing all files to make the site squeaky clean. While I do…

Pre-order The Gorelets Omnibus!

My latest book is now available for pre-order.  And I'm very proud to share it with you, because it's the result of a decade of work right here on gorelets.com.  It's a big honking book of dreadful little things called THE GORELETS OMNIBUS.

Put this under your child’s pillow when they lose a baby tooth…

Don't put money under your child's pillow if they put their lost tooth there before bedtime. Put something like this under there, waiting for them to awaken in the morning... money better spent! Berkeley dollmaker Kerry Kate is doing some wonderfully macabre artwork with her collectable handmade doll series at October Effigies. Above is her Tooth Fairy Stuffed Print Doll from May 2010; I also found her "Wormbelly" doll quite disturbing. Visit her blog for the latest.
