2007: A Year of Dark, Scary Secrets!

I've got lots and lots of stuff coming up for 2007...but I'm not allowed to talk about most of it. (I even got the thrill of signing a non-disclosure agreement!) That said, here, presented in a vague and uninteresting manner, are some of the major projects you'll see from me next year:

--A new "serious" thriller, although one that's not quite as much of a departure from my usual style as PRESSURE.

--A collaborative novel that may be the most over-the-top, action-packed thing I've ever half-written.

--GLEEFULLY MACABRE TALES, my first book-length short story collection.

--My next horror/comedy novel for Delirium Books. Actually, I'm allowed to talk about this one all I want, but I shan't. Technically it won't be published until early 2008, but pre-orders will begin in late 2007 so I'm including it here.

--THE SINISTER MR. CORPSE, the feel-good zombie novel of 2007! This one went up for pre-order in 2006, so including it on the same list as the Delirium novel above is like padding my resume, but I care not.

--A trio of short stories in a collection with some other mucho-cool authors.

--A dark comedy novella that will feature my most shameless promotional gimmick ever.

--A novella in a five-author collection to be published by...I THINK I'm allowed to say that it's from New Babel Books. If not, my bad.

--UNTIL SOMEBODY LOSES AN EYE, a collection of dark humor tales from Twisted Publishing. My debut into the world of (co-)editing.

--The first print edition of my comedy for kids (and adults who were warped as kids) ELROD McBUGLE ON THE LOOSE.

Seeya next year!
