Time to Rot Your Brain
I've written and illustrated a new book, and I've called it:
Twisted: Tales to Rot Your Brain Vol 1
It's a little twisted, as you can imagine, and it will probably do some damage to your brain, as you might expect.
The cover is over there to the right, and
you can watch the trailer for the book on this page.
The book collects together 28 flash fiction stories that target anybody who giggles when a story takes a surprising turn, from middle grade readers through their adult counterparts. The stories in the collection unfold using traditional text, illustrated text, text with illustrations, stand-alone illustrations and even a graphic novel.
And all of them lean toward the edge of the twisted. Told from unexpected perspectives. Not about what you thought they were. Head off in a direction you weren't counting on.
And here's hoping you never see it coming. Blindsided.
Time to giggle.
Where do I go from here?
The book is available at Amazon (the link is over there on the left) and Barnes & Noble (hardcover | paperback) as well as various other wonderful online entities, in both hardcover and paperback.
The Hairy Eyeballs shop is up and running, so you can find some of the illustrations from the book on merchandise over there at Zazzle. I do have a few images, sample stories and instigations on the extras page, and some background info on the about page. If you want to get more in-depth stories about the book, take a click on the blog. It has some in-progress posts, and I'll be sliding in some tidbits there that you won't be able to find anywhere else.
Hopefully you have a twisted sense of humor, otherwise this relationship is probably already over. But if you're liking what you see, keep checking back as I swap out illustrations for fresh ones as they are finished.
And thanks a cryptload for reading this far.
