Oh, friends, it’s not every day you get to drop a title like that, and actually mean it. If you’ve known me for any length of time, you know that I value creativity, and I don’t have that thing in my brain that … what does it do? Oh! Yeah, the thing that stops you from doing insane stuff.
My birthday is coming up on May 14th, and I’m turning 50, with that threatening milestone looming, I thought the best course of action was to create something hilarious, unhinged, and fun.
Announcing my new book …
That’s right! “HOW TO EXPOSE YOURSELF TO WOMEN” is up and available for pre-order, and I couldn’t be happier about this delightful little project.
So … what is this thing? It’s exactly as I describe in that short video promo. Creature-Feature, Hillbilly, Self-Help, Comedy-Horror Pick-Up-Guide. Honestly, finding the right Amazon category was brutal, and I probably didn’t get it right, I also don’t really care.
You see, a couple years back I threw my hat in the ring for Three Raven’s “It Came From The Trailer Park” anthology, and degenerate sleazebag, Uncle Floyd Cooper hit the pages. Since then, I’ve wanted to do more with that incredibly fun character, so when the rights to re-publish the short story reverted back to me, I jumped at the opportunity to launch a little project to tie together that crazy redneck-horror short with SPACE PEW PEW!
Wait … What Does This Have To Do With SPACE PEW PEW?
I’m glad you asked, even though you didn’t. This is a COMPANION book to the upcoming SPACE PEW PEW 2, and there’s now some growing lore around all of these characters. That’s right, I took Alabama Redneck Horror-Comedy and tied it to the Pewniverse, so it’s canon now. Uncle Floyd is going to be inserted into the world of Alex and Toshiro, and I can’t wait.
Why inject sleazy rednecks to space opera?
Because I can. Unfettered creativity and nobody to sit here and say, “Uhh … don’t do that,” is the best thing ever.
Legend has it, when Uncle Floyd disappeared into the Alabama swamp on his nephew Chester’s 18th birthday, he left behind an unpublished manuscript in his El Camino … and it only gets weirder from there!
Now, my editor for this new project informed me that he had to take breaks while editing because he couldn’t take the amount unhinged hilarity going on in here, and his face needed to rest.
Have a look at the Amazon page, and the book description for a bit more:
Folks, I hope you’ll consider supporting this epic little project. It’s not a huge book by any stretch, but I guarantee you I’ve packed comedy haymakers into this thing. It’s endlessly quotable, and a wild ride from the first word to the last.
As always, thank you, I appreciate you!
