Closes at Dusk

Closes at Dusk is now available for pre-order, and now check out the great endorsement from Joe McKinney!

"Paffenroth just keeps getting better and better. I have devoured all his books, and watched with delight and awe as he stamps his intelligence and unique insight onto his stories. Here, in Closes at Dusk, we have Paffenroth's personal De Profundis, in which he brings the full power of his intellect to bear on the nature of suffering and redemption. This is a beautiful book on all fronts, and in my opinion, a masterpiece."

-Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Flesh Eaters and Inheritance

Permuted E-Book Sale!

And as you can see, VALLEY OF THE DEAD is part of this big sale!

If you read books in ebook format, you have no (monetary) excuse for not getting VALLEY!

And if you're still wavering, let me direct you to the Amazon review page! Yes, authors often disparage these, but I have to say - many of these reviews are not merely of the "This ROX!" or "This SUX!" variety, but are a couple paragraphs pointing out real strengths and weaknesses.

The Undead and Theology

Just got the page proofs for this fantastic collection of academic essays on Buffy, The Walking Dead, Hammer Films, Priest, and all manner of theological reflection on monsters! Just the kind of things I love, and I'm so proud to have brought together this A-Team of (mostly younger) scholars!

As I was going through the Contributors bios, I saw a lot of people have blogs, so I 'm gonna gather them together here and in the sidebar!

Incredibly fun and funny project, now with the trailer available!

My ugly mug about 3/4 of the way into it. Check it out!

Scott and Tabby

I met them a few years ago at ZombieFest. Two very nice people (and as you all know, I'm very hard to get along with). Tabby is now ill, so please consider helping out by following this link.

Closes at Dusk

Thanks to Jodi for all her work, and for believing in this project! Thanks to Christine for her beta reading!
