Scares That Care: AuthorCon VI or Bust!

Hey everyone. It's that time again... Scares That Care: AuthorCon is back this weekend, and I can't wait. It's one of my favorite bookish events, and definitely one of the best to participate in.

For those not in the know, AuthorCon is an event run by Brian Keene that raises money for charitable causes and individuals in need. So, not only is it just a great weekend for readers and writers of genre fiction to trade, buy cool stuff, meet, and get books signed, it's also a great opportunity to contribute to a great cause, while you're having an awesome time.

I'll be there, alongside many other authors, selling books and meeting you fine people! Be sure to stop by my table to chat, get a book signed, and pick up a new book (or two...or three!).

When:  4th - 6th October 2024

Where: Marriott Renaissance Airport Hotel
              9801 Natural Bridge Rd,
              St. Louis, MO 63134

Hope to see you there!

YES, I AM A VAMPIRE

Well, it's what the kids call "spooky season" so I thought this might be a good time to tell you that I am definitely, absolutely not a vampire. 

On a separate note, I've released a new book called YES, I AM A VAMPIRE.

 

The Collected Short Fiction and Autobiography of Stephen Kozeniewski, 2013-2016

Despite all the evidence to the contrary, I swear I am not a vampire. Cross my heart and…eh, nevermind.

Just trust me, there are no vampires within these pages. Plenty of zombies, though. One of the short stories in this book features a zombie caveman, for instance. And another is called Exploding Shit Zombies. You can probably guess what that one’s about.

Not every story is zombie-themed, of course. I’ve also got a monster under the bed piece that’s pretty fucking scary. And in another, a bunch of little alien goblins take over a farmstead.

This isn’t just a short story collection, either. Half of it’s my autobiography. I guarantee you’ve never seen those two styles mashed together before.

I also guarantee you’ve never seen any fucking vampires before. Not here. Not anywhere. So let’s just drop it.

What do you mean, bloodstains all over the book? Don’t worry about those. Just wipe the gore off your fingers and dive in to…

Yes, I Am A Vampire

This is something totally new and different. It's my first short story collection, and also my first printed autobiographical work. I hope it's entertaining, informative, and insightful...and I also hope that you understand that I'm not a vampire at all.
