In news of the awesome, I was just informed “Monsters, Movies & Mayhem” (which includes my story “Vinegar Syndrome”) is a finalist in the Colorado Book Awards. This is a regional award which celebrates excellence by Colorado writers, editors, illustrators, and photographers. Of course, I’m not from Colorado, but the editorial team and publisher are, so more power to them.
“M,M&M” is one of three finalists in the Anthology category. It’s a really great book, and worth your time to check it out if you’re a fan of weird fiction with a cinematic theme. My story is about a cinephile who gets his grubby mitts on a work print of a film long thought lost. And it probably should have stayed lost. The guys over at Nerdblitz note that the “main character gets what he has coming in a beautifully twisted and throughly just way.”
If you’re interested, you can get a copy of the book here. The awards are announced on June 29th, so keep your fingers crossed for this book!
