    Win a Copy of Queer Hauntings!


    2009 - 09.25

    Most of you readers may not realize how much work goes into trying to find interesting stories, websites, etc. to mention in this blog. It can be tiring work. But the research and digging doesn’t end there. Even when it comes to my book, finding reviews, booksellers, or anything else happening with it, that too requires a lot of research and digging. Yes… believe it or not, authors aren’t told everything!

    In fact, one such bit I just stumbled across may be of interest to most of you. Edge (along with its different individual city websites) often gives away a variety of tickets , DVDs, books, etc. on its website. Now, it’s giving away a copy of Queer Hauntings to one lucky entrant! There isn’t a deadline listed, but I wouldn’t wait too long to enter. Click here to go to Edge Boston’s page for the book giveaway.
    Sorry, everyone, but it’s not a signed copy. Although that can be arranged if you win…

    Bigfoot Lost and Found…


    2008 - 08.26

    For those of you who haven’t followed the news story about the bigfoot body on ice, you didn’t miss much. As the corpse thawed out prior to examination, it was discovered to be (as was expected by most) nothing but a big gorilla suit stuffed with roadkill. The cop was fired for the stunt, and both of the “hunters” who “stumbled across the body in the woods” have gone missing.

    Wisely so, considering they made off with a good amount of money.

    After emerging from seclusion, they began blaming Tom Biscardi for the whole ordeal. This isn’t over for the duo, who may face legal action.

    But don’t let that discourage you from cryptozoology. Sasquatch is still out there, and you can get your own.

    The folks at StuffedAnimals.com have pounced on the discovery and are offering a limited edition bigfoot plush. At 16 inches tall, he may not be a beast exactly, but he could lead to your own 15 minutes of fame. The website is offering a contest for creative photos of your stuffed bigfoot. The lucky winner receives a phone interview and a special page on the company’s website.

    It might not be as nice as 15 minutes on CNN, but it’s a lot safer…
