TALES FROM THE HANGING MONKEY, VOL 2

I missed posting this when it was released yesterday (that's the problem with working a night shift: all news is old news by the time I wake up).  It's not news about Challenger Storm #3 (STILL in the works), but it's writing news for me nonetheless.

Now available from Airship 27 Productions: "Tales from the Hanging Monkey, Volume 2"!  I'm truly honored to have a story featured in this terrific collection, and it's actually one of my favorite things that I've written.  For two-fisted pulp adventure fun, nothing beats having a drink in the Hanging Monkey bar!

Official press release:

MORE ADVENTURES

IN

THE SOUTH SEAS

Airship 27 Productions is happy to announce the release of our second “Tales From The Hanging Monkey” anthology.

When Irishman Corky O’Brian opened his bar, the Hanging Monkey, on the island of Motugra he had no idea it would become a magnet for some of the most colorful rogues ever to ply their trades in the South Seas. The cast includes his lovely, but deadly Chinese waitress Miko, Khuna the powerful island warrior, sea captain Nick Fortune and pilot Jimmy Dolan.

Together these five colorful characters fight their way through one breath-taking adventure after another courtesy of writers Bill Craig, J. Walt Layne, Don Gates, Nancy Hansen and Lee Houston Jr. From chasing after a cursed diamond to uncovering the mystery of a lethal mermaid, when you stop in at the Hanging Monkey, there’s no telling what will happen next.

“Reaction to our first volume was overwhelming positive,” reports Airship 27 Productions Managing Editor Ron Fortier. “Enough so that we knew we had to whip up a second quartet of these fun adventures.” Fortier then recruited professional artist Mike Harris to do the twelve interior illustrations with Award Winning Art Director Rob Davis taking on the cover to complete the project.

These are old fashion South Seas tales as done New Pulp style with fast paced action amidst tropical sea breezes that will have readers soon clamoring for more…Tales From the Hanging Monkey.

AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTIONS – PULP FICTION FOR A NEW GENERATION!

Available now from Amazon in paperback and soon on Kindle.

NOW HEAR THIS: "THE ISLE OF BLOOD" IS NOW AN AUDIOBOOK!

Because this blog is the "red headed stepchild" of my online presence (i.e. the place with the lowest amount of traffic), I nearly overlooked posting some actual news here.

The first bit of news is that through Airship 27's partnership with Radio Archives, CHALLENGER STORM: THE ISLE OF BLOOD has joined the growing list of New Pulp novels to be adapted into an audiobook format!  Radio Archives' own Josh Harrison has done a terrific job adapting the book, and it's now available through Audible.com!

AND ALSO STILL NEWSWORTHY...

 This was published back in December, and I'm kicking myself for not posting about it here: I have a short-story in the incredible collection LEGENDS OF NEW PULP FICTION!  A benefit project to aid and support writer/editor Tommy Hancock, the book has a staggering sixty (60!) short tales from the cream-of-the-crop of New Pulp writers, covering every genre from horror and adventure to romance and crime.  I'm proud to have contributed a story for the book: THE MOTH - GEARS OF BLOOD is the tale of a mysterious vigilante as he stalks the streets of the dieselpunk city of New Aspiria on the hunt for an evil cult and a kidnapped little girl.  I cannot urge you enough to buy a copy of this amazing book!

 

I Kicked the Willy Bobo, and Had a Good Time While Doing It

Greetings: haven't done a blog post in a while, but the writing continues.  The road goes ever on and on...

A few days ago I participated in an interview with one of my favorite New Pulp authors, Derrick Ferguson.  You can read the interview over here at his blog.  When you're done, I urge you to check out Derrick's own writing, especially his incredibly fun Dillon series.  Every book is like a summer blockbuster.

And now back to writing...
