Sinister Press

  More and more publishing companies are following my tweets lately.  That's so cool!  Oh yeah, and my mother-in-law sent us a Kindle that she had somehow won or however, gotten for free.  I jumped on amazon.com and bought Apocalypse of the Dead by Joe McKinney.  I think I'm gonna look up my wish list from Book Mooch and see what I can get onto my Kindle since so much of what I want isn't available on Book Mooch.  Amazon.com has some good prices too, which is good.
  Wait a second, I was talking about publishing companies.  I just started having my tweets followed by a company called Sinister Press.  They had a section of their website about submissions.  I wrote a quick summary of the Nocent and submitted it for their consideration.  Also, once I'm done putting out the Greater Number, I'll submit that for their consideration as well.  Couldn't hurt.  Boy, it's just a matter of time before one of these publishing companies thinks I'm good enough, I'm smart enough and doggone it, people like me.  I will know that you, my loyal and dedicated readers have been with me from the beginning through thick and thing.  Thank you for believing in me and standing by me while I'm still just a starving artist trying to get noticed in the dog-eat-dog publishing world.

Monday, Monday

  I was thinking about the name Pinocchio.  I wonder if it's related to the word occipital, like the part of the skull.  So it would mean something along the lines of 'pine skull'.  Makes sense since he's a puppet whose head is probably carved in wood.  I'm thinking the word occipital itself is related to the word caput which means head.  More of that sort of shit that keeps me up nights.
  What I wanted to write to you about was this whole Book Mooch website.  Just for fun I put up my own book, the Nocent as available for anyone who would want me to send it to them.  To my surprise, someone did!  I'll be giving someone my book.  Kayla brought it to my attention that if one person wants it, there might be more people out there who would want it.
  I've been contemplating putting out a new chapter of the Nocent on Mondays as well.  If I did, my calculations put it at around June 24 that the whole book would be out in its entirety.  That's a lot sooner than November or December!  Then all I have to do is use the Blog2Print feature on this website to publish paper copies of the novel.  Please give me some feedback on this.  You've got friends at Loh's place.
