A one-of-a-kind copy of LIVE GIRLS & others on eBay ...

feeds@yuku.com (RayGarton) — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 11:50:25 GMT

I've listed a batch of ten books on eBay, including a one-of-a-kind copy of LIVE GIRLS that might be of special interest to collectors. Also included are the 1999 Subterranean hardcover edition of my first novel SEDUCTIONS, a copy of my short story collection METHODS OF MADNESS, some of my YA novels written under the name of Joseph Locke, and others. Here's a link:

Tell me at least someone here is AGAINST the new Heatlh Care Bill?

feeds@yuku.com (Eric S Brown) — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 11:01:51 GMT

If so, speak up against it already!!
I am not saying we don't need reform but AMERICA is NOT a socialist nation. This bill is against everything this country stands for. FREEDOM OF CHOICE. The government shouldn't have the right to tell us what we can and can't say, who we can love or marry, what we faith we follow, OR WHAT WE HAVE TO DO FOR OUR HEALTH CARE!!
Too much power corrupts and we're on a slippery slope already here folks.

I'm pulling The Last Motel from the lineup as the end of January so if you want to get your hands on a copy now would be a good time.
You can order this title directly from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or your local bookstore. It's available in the UK as well as Australia and of course right here in the US.

The Box -- disappointing (no spoilers)

feeds@yuku.com (Shocklines) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 22:46:12 GMT

Man, I've been waiting for this for a year. Pretty disappointed. I give it a C. I'm a fan of the original short story, but even a bigger fan of the 1980s Twilight Zone episode loosely based on it, starring Mare Winningham, which I felt to be truly chilling and twisted.

It's not ruining anything to say that this is really much more based on the Twilight Zone episode than the story. That said, it's a total re-envisioning. Donnie Darko remains one of my favorite films of...

Racism in Horror

feeds@yuku.com (Lawrence Dagstine) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:06:35 GMT

I was having lunch with my friend today, he's black, late 30's, urban but very educated, came out of Generation X like myself, and he asked me if I still use the horror label. Why I haven't dropped it yet. And I said, What do you mean? And he just said, "It's just such a white game, a white genre."

I said, not in the same exact words (but to give you an idea), "Yeah, but that's not true, you have Wrath James White [Succulent Prey], and other...

Okay?

I don't watch much TV, but I'm listening to Obama's half-brother ramble about whatever he's rambling about from another room while he's promoting a book on Larry King, and I'm fascinated by the difference between his ability to pitch and the President's.

Who is doing NaNoWriMo this year?

feeds@yuku.com (Houseofhorror) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:41:41 GMT

OK, so its day 7 of NaNoWriMo and I'm chugging on quite nicely. At 19,000 words, I am above the daily target which I am happy about. The only thing, is finding the time to actually sit down and write. With kids and housework, and everything I have going on with House of Horror including the Duel and the Best of 2009 anthology, it is just so tiring! I managed it lasy year and...

Are you on any other horror-related boards?

feeds@yuku.com (JKnight1) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 13:20:55 GMT

I like hanging out here, but Yuku has been so wonky that I'm giving up on them. I want to log on, not spend 15 minutes trying to log on and failing and resetting my password, etc., every time.

So, where else do y'all hang out?

**********************************
Allison Henry isn't the first to suffer from a horrifying medical condition that few women talk about. But her case was particularly bad, and she's just one of the few brave souls willing to come forward so that others will have the courage to seek help.

To put it bluntly, as Henry does: "My vagina fell out of my body."
