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.

Six bloody years

On the off chance that anyone cares, this month is the sixth anniversary of this blog. In that time, it's been viewed (gasp) 10,479 times. That's 1750 hits, more or less, a year. Man, we're burnin' up the net.

Oh, and the guy in the next office reminds me that the sequel to Many Believable Lies is in the pipeline. This one's gonna be called Clash by Night, and he really, really hopes to have it out on Amazon by the end of June. He says it's gonna have steampunk mayhem, more civic corruption, a climactic event in the middle of the Ann Arbor Art Fair, a budding romance, and -- more doggie bits! Who reads this stuff, anyway?

A shameless plug for some hack's new book



Some guy in Ann Arbor has written a book, and because he did us a favor or two a while back, he thought he could lean on us for a bit of free publicity. Turns out, he was right. He could.

As John Cleese, I think it was, said, I can highly recommend this book to people who quite like this sort of thing.
