Do not adjust your set

2013 07 06: Update

Well, the new book is out there. Clash by Night. Caveat emptor.

J. Francis McLuggage, Divine Spiritual Leader of the Wood-Charles cult publishing empire, would like to apologize for the shortage of new content. He has been retained to edit the upcoming masterpiece of rubbish fiction from Joseph McConnell (which the author describes as a work of rare sensitivity, dog-consciousness, and occasional fits of random violence), to be titled Clash by Night. Besides all that, it's also a sequel to his first novel, Many Believable Lies, which was inflicted on an unsuspecting world published last year.

"This guy needs a lot of editing," said McLuggage.
