RE-RELEASE ANNOUNCEMENT - HUNTER OF THE DEAD

 Hey everybody!

HUNTER OF THE DEAD is back, in all its savage and gory glory! It's been re-released by Crossroad Press, and with a fancy new cover! You could say it's been... re-vamped.

Someone has begun targeting vampires.

Vampire leaders of the thirteen Houses attribute the string of recent losses to over-zealous vampire hunters. Only Cicatrice, the most ancient and powerful vampire in the world, suspects that the semi-legendary Hunter of the Dead may be the real culprit.

Carter Price, a vampire hunter who despises the way his profession is becoming centralized and corporatized, begins to suspect the Hunter of the Dead is back, too—and no longer distinguishing between vampires and mortals. Against his better judgment, Price agrees to work with Cicatrice.

The uneasy allies attempt to uncover the truth about the Hunter, while a vampire civil war brews in the background. But perhaps most difficult of all, they must contend with their new apprentices, who seem to be falling in love with each other against every rule of man and monster…

If you're a vampire fan, I think you'll like it... in fact, I'd "stake" my reputation on it!

BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS - BOOKBUB OR BUST!

 Hi everyone!

So much happening this month - first BROKEN-DOWN HEROES OF THE WESTERN NIGHT ebooks go on "sale" for the sweet price of nothing, and now I'm able to offer you this...

BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS is now available for only $0.99! (UK, Australia, Canada). The offer runs until the end of the month (we love being involved with BookBub).

Six billion identical clones make up the entire population of Earth, and William 790-6 (57th Iteration) is exactly like everybody else. In his one year of life he will toil in suburban mediocrity and spend as much cash as possible in order to please his corporate masters. When 790’s first birthday (and scheduled execution) finally rolls around, a freak accident spares his life.

Living past his expiration date changes 790 profoundly. Unlike other clones he becomes capable of questioning the futility of his own existence. Seeking answers in the wilderness, he discovers a windmill with some very strange occupants, including a freakish, dinosaur-like monstrosity. Which is especially strange since every animal on earth is supposed to be extinct…

Dark, haunting, and blisteringly satirical, BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS is the story of one “man’s” attempt to finally become an individual in a world of copies.

If you'd like to get your hands on your own copy, you can find it here:

BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS

If that LOW AWESOME PRICE doesn't tempt you, let me show you a few of the reviews :)

It's great for me to get to re-unleash BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS on the world at such a discount - I hope you enjoy it!

Publish Like a Motherfucker Course 10: Live-Action Listener Mailbag!

Hey, everybody!

Hope all's going well with you.  I'm delighted to announce the second "Publish Like a Motherfucker (With Stephen Kozeniewski)" of 2022 at long last.

I'm pleased to welcome P.R. Marsh, host of The Lasser Cast and Comic Books Transformed and soon-to-be-published author of THE FIELDS BURN RED and THERE'S NO WAY THIS IS RIGHT!

Stop by my business page Tuesday, November 22, at 7:00 pm EST.  I will, of course, be recording for posterity, but if you have questions, you'll want to be there live to participate.  And, as always, if you're interested in future PLAM courses, let me know in the comments below, on social media, or during the course.

Course 10:  Live-Action Listener Mailbag!

Date:  Tuesday, November 22, 2022

Time:  7:00 pm EST

Syllabus:  In this very special episode, we flip the script!  (Don't worry, the kids still say that.)  We'll be joined by long-time listener and up-and-coming author P.R. Marsh, who will serve as a proxy for the audience and ask Stephen about all those questions and anxieties that worry away a hungry young artist's writing time.  Unlike a regular listener mailbag episode, we'll get to have a nice, organic conversation, and you can join us too, if you tune in live.  Don't miss it!

In Honor of Veterans Day - BROKEN-DOWN HEROES OF THE WESTERN NIGHT

 Hi everyone!

Veterans Day is a special day for me - as well as many others - and this year, I have the opportunity to celebrate it a little differently (yes, I know the day has passed, but it's never too late to blow up a balloon or... say... offer a FREE book...)! BROKEN-DOWN HEROES OF THE WESTERN NIGHT is based on my own experiences, but entirely fictional, and seems like an appropriate gift to mark this special day.

Hardcharging army lieutenant Bickham Deth's only desire is to lead soldiers in combat. In the bloody winter of 2006, he expects to finally earn his baptism by fire on the streets of Kabul or Baghdad.

Instead, he finds himself trapped in Oklahoma on funeral detail.

Deth is honored to pay tribute to the veterans of Vietnam and World War II, but his patience is pushed to the breaking point by incompetent morticians, squabbling family members, and a mishap with the color of his socks that threatens to derail his entire military career.

As the "needs of the army" turn a three-day task into a never-ending odyssey, Deth finds solace from his grim work in the gallows humor of his partner, Sergeant Bela Packs. In his fifteen years of service Packs has seen it all, and his war stories are a welcome distraction from the painful task of burying the dead.

As the honors team weaves its way through the American heartland, seeing both the sublime and ugly sides of small town life, Packs unravels the spellbinding tale of the worst Soldier who ever lived...

If you would like a copy, it's currently available on Kindle for FREE (until the end of the month), and this is where you can find it:

I hope you enjoy the book - salutations!
