Photos from NOVA Horrorfest Event — 10.25.2013 Manassas, VA

I had a fabulous time last weekend as a guest at North Virginia Community College โ€“ Manassas, who has been running a "Horrorfest" all month to celebrate student creativity on the dark side. The event began with my reading in Colgan Theater (I read a sampler of things, from excerpts from 100 Jolts to zombie poems from Gorelets Omnibus to a dark slide show of images and poetry based on my trip last Halloween season to the Mutter Museum). The booksigning afterward was great because I got to meet lots of great folks, from people I knew only from twitter…

Random Shots from the RDSPress “Booksburgh” Bookstore Hop 10.19.13

Raw Dog Screaming Press authors signed at bookstores all around Pittsburgh today, and I dropped in to see each one. With help from Diane Turnshek, Laurie Mann and the good folks at Parsec, the event was dubbed "Booksburgh" and every store offered some great discounts and happy surprises along the way.

The day began with my signing/reading at CMU Bookstore, which was a good warm up act to a series of intelligent and entertaining readings…

Photos from DogCon 2013

Some visuals from Raw Dog Screaming Press' community gathering in Columbus, OH, Aug 2-3, 2013. I did not manage to snap too many, because I was far too busy having a blast. For now, you can find things on the Raw Dog Screaming Press facebook page, and I'm sure more recordings will make their way online soon.
