Mapping the Interior of Mapping the Interior

For the book that became The Long Trial of Nolan Dugatti, I kept a kind of running diary of the writing of it, The Camopede Files. Was fun. It made me kind of look at my process in a new way, a helpful way. So, when I started Mapping the Interior, I figured I’d try […]

Couple-three things

New Mongrels review up, over at: New/old story “No Takebacks” up over at: I’m at Tattered Cover (Colfax—was at LoDo last week, with Andy Davidson) this week: Tidbit over at LitReactor, about my first story sale: And, anybody needs me this weekend, try Ghost Town: And, I’m back from Santa Fe. Will throw some pics

Werewolf short(s)

Not the kind Jacob and his pack wore for Twilight, and not the kind some certain wolfling was carving into bathroom stalls all over the southeast. I’m talking the fiction kind. This one puts me in mind of Peter S. Beagle’s “Lila the Werewolf,” or that one story of mine from forever ago, “Old Meat“):

Fright Night 85

For my money, Evil Ed in wolf-form, stabbed and fallen and crawling across the floor, is still one of the creepiest ever effects (at 50sec)

Story up over at Nightmare

Brushdogs Think it’s my . . . third one over there? Gospel of Z excerpt, “Raphael”: yep, two. And a couple interviews.

Denver Comic Con 2017

I remember, roundabout . . . 2009, 2010? sitting in the back room of a comic book shop with a lot of the people who would go on to make DCC, and we were talking about what if we did something, some event, do we think anybody would come? Turns out, 115K people will, yep.

Just Plain Old Supercool

You know that old Who song “Squeeze Box” — Momma’s Got a Squeeze Box / Daddy Never Sleeps at Night? Pretty sure it would apply nearly* perfectly to me, if I had this contraption: * why ‘nearly’? I kind of halfway suspect there might be some sexual connoting going on in those lyrics, that I

Coolest Mapping snap so far

Which, I should probably say: I’m a committed bubble-bath reader myself: I've got suds, a 32oz @CaptainMorganUS & @CocaColaCo, and a new one from @SGJ72. I didn't make it awkward, did I? pic.twitter.com/MaPDNrpRwW — David Tromblay (@davidtromblay) June 22, 2017

Mapping the Interior is live

Kind of swamped here in Massachusetts this week (literally: it’s the kind of humid here that’s like a sauna), haven’t had time to proper announce that today’s the day, but: today’s the day. Here’s some of the stuff I’ve seen so far: Which is from the Tor.com offices, I think—just search “Mapping the Interior” in

The Elvis Room out in the world

Or,  West Texas, at least, which, for eighteen years, was pretty much all the world I could confirm there was. Once had a hotel in Junction, Texas tell me “You’re in luck, you get the last room.” pic.twitter.com/4WlYxkbMmk — Jason Truitt (@JasonHGTruitt) June 19, 2017

The Water, the world

I got to be a small part of this: The Ask: What Environmental Issues Give Nightmares to Horror Writers?

h. naledi: just saying

I mean, yeah, this is a tough one to crack: But, I mean, I did kind of offer what I consider a pretty rational solution: Rising Star  

Digging up Bones

Which is a good Randy Travis song. But, I’m actually talking about real physical crumbly cool bones, here not metaphorical sad nostalgic bones: http://www.tor.com/2017/06/08/amateur-archaeology-from-bone-yards-to-writing-desks/
