I'm proud to announce that I am a featured author at Charlie Courtland's book review blog Bitsy Bling Books. Charlie is an accomplished writer herself but also writes reviews for novels during her spare time (when is that, Charlie?). For the months of May and June, she is sponsoring an event called Twisted Tales which features authors who write novels of dark fiction, dark comedy, absurdist, bizarro and pulp fiction. I'm excited that she's including The Meteoric Rise of Simon Burchwood along with novels by other awesome indie authors like Lance Carbuncle, Kirk Jones, and many more. Check out what she had to say about my novel and peruse the work of these other fantastic indie writers.
Most importantly, I'd like to thank book reviewers like Charlie as well as other reviewers (Red Adept, Great Books Under $5, etc.) who feature indie authors. With the fast changes in the publishing industry brought about by the popularity of reading devices like the Kindle, Nook, iPad, Sony Reader, and more, events like Twisted Tales highlight some fantastic indie books out there waiting to be devoured by avid readers. Most likely, you will not discover these books through your local newspaper, from Oprah Book Club recommendations, or even your local book store but that does not diminish in any way their merit as outstanding books. I hope, more than anything, that the books highlighted in Twisted Tales will inspire readers to seek out more books from these featured authors (including yours truly) as well as other great indie writers on the interwebs. We are waiting to fill your mind with literary goodness and, in the case of my Twisted Tales brethren, satisfy your appetite for bizarro fiction. Enjoy!
