What are hairy eyeballs?

"Hairy Eyeballs" is the title of one of the short stories I've written for my new book which, at this point, is still lacking a title. Hairy Eyeballs the Web site, on the other hand, does have a title and it's Hairy Eyeballs.

How about that new little emoticon I've put in the title bar? \0/ I'm thinking it reminds me of Edvard Munch's painting The Scream which, really, seems rather appropriate. It could also be a touchdown. Depends on the time of year and what city you live in.

Where do I go from here?

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 and sample stories on the extras page, and some background info on the about page. Your best bet if you want to dig in right away is to take a click on the blog. It has the most up-to-date information, 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.
