It sucks to have to use AOL, doesn’t it? But that doesn’t mean I can’t tell when you visit The Nail. What’s up with that session in which you poked around on the 19th for 23 page loads, looking at really old entries, searching for . . . what?
In case you weren’t aware, your unique visitor ID is not pinned to the IP addy that AOL assigns you when you log in.
Seriously, dude, are you no longer feeling the love from your fans? Wanna remain a hot topic of conversation? Go out and do something stupid Nicky-like. Threaten a few more people with rape or arson — you know — your usual antics. Now, hop to it, son. That is all.
Maybe it was his Mommy trying to fight Nikki’s battles for him.
Wrong ISP, computer, OS, and browser for that. Besides, she doesn’t visit nearly as frequently as Peaches; she’ll hang around, delving, but doesn’t pop by several times a day, day after day . . .
He’s looking for more excuses to try and get you shut down. That’s his MO.

Mom of the year (MOTY): I don’t have Margie’s number, but I messaged mom’s number to her. I messaged Irene’s number to you.
Greg Not to negative but I think Mom may have her number but forgot that she has it
M.O.T.Y. : I gave mom Cliffy’s number. I lost it. Amy says mom is stage 2 altzheimers. I *think* she may have Margie’s.
Greg: Mom told me that she has spoken to Margie,problem is she didn’t say when
M.O.T.Y: Who knows…. we are all ill with the creepin cruds here… sinuses sore throat, the whole 9 yards. Problem is, no $$ for a couple days to buy decongestants. Fridge echos when you open it! Sux.

Hey Numbnuts, the one hiding behind the fake name and no picture along with a new york phone number — yeah you, with the sick unicorn fetish. I am talking to you.
I am about to take this fight to national TV on the talk show circut because you are not only a bully but you’re one who is a coward too. I guess you’re scared about how I am going to be exposing you for what you really are — and that’s a scumbag. Give me one good reason not to send your cell number to all the anti-cyber bully websites? Just one good reason pussy. And yes I am calling you a pussy. I know about the stunt you pulled on hotmail using my pen name — and what you pulled on ning. When I take you on a talk show I will kick your ass before the soundstage. I will make you choke out because you said libelous things, criminal things. I got your video closed down.
Now I am just working on your yahoo account and all your web presences. I am working on the real issues of The Ethereal Gazette. Not those abominations you’re trying to make them out to be — why do you want to make it into another GBLT magazine. You’re murdering the true charm of the magazine. One of my contributors saw what you’re doing and it’s amoral. Especially trying to call a book my official website. I rub my nuts on your integrity — as I keep my composure while telling you off. I am willing to guess you’re going to always be that yellow striped faceless coward of a spermsucker. What is your fascination with homosexuality anyway? I guess you might be DicK Sinu’s bed buddy if that name really exists. I got someone who e-mailed me offering to help me find out who you are. Especially since they did shows with me — so now I am out for blood, and when you get beheaded I will use your open coffin as a toilet. I am not afraid of you, I am just strengthening my resolve.
Does this look like a Morris, Illinois, phone number?
646 – 465 – XXXX
No I tracked it down, you’re in New York, New York. So you can’t produce a Morris, Illinois address or phone number. A Morris phone number will look like this.
815-941-XXXX
815-942-XXXX
815-943-XXXX
815-513-XXXX”
He rubs his nuts on something, talks about consuming semen, but of course Nicky isn’t gay at all.

You got a war asshole. I got people helping track down your address and I will fight you on national television — all it takes is few quick e-mails to a couple talk shows and I will confront you on the air if you have the stones to show your face coward.”
And don’t think he doesn’t mean to go with it! I’ve intercepted an email he’d sent to Jerry Springer.
“Dear Jerry,
I am a straight writer who is one who publishes straight fiction for the straight audience but this faceless faggotfuck is one who is a fucken faggot who is making me look like a faggot. Put us on your show so I can kick his ass in a fist fight with a steel toed boot and blow cigar smoke on his cock so that will show him who the faggot is while I give his fucking wife the old Italian sauseech.
I am straight.
Nickolaus Ablert Pacione.”
He really seems to think that it’s as easy as snapping his fingers to force someone else to go on some sucky syndicated tv show. Assuming for a moment that he could manage to get on one of these shows (not simply get a ticket to be in the studio audience), and the producer can actually find a proper name and contact information for the the person Nicky wants to drag on stage to confront — two really big ifs — that person is under no obligation whatsoever to agree to it.
Nicky is such an idiot he hasn’t figured out that the name Dick Sinu isn’t a real name? LOL LOL LOL
How about we turn over all of Nicky’s numbers and e mails to those anti bully websites he thinks give a flying rat’s ass about his whining?
It’s another one of his overly extravagant empty threats — an escalation of his “going to the press” theme. That and a quarter will get you 25 cents.
I will concede, however, that he probably thinks it is that easy to get on that sort of show, and that he can start a fist fight without consequence… or getting his ass supremely kicked.
He also thinks he is far more important in the industry than he is.
Well, he did admit once that his shrink discussed his megalomania with him. So . . . yeah.
Sorry that got stuck in moderation, Phil. It’s brilliant.
His threats are funny to me because when I or Autoaim spoke to him on the phone, he was always the first to hang up. Always. So angry at us, so much he wants to do and say, yet he always gets scared and hangs up and runs away.
Whatever show would have him on would have to have subtitles when he spoke. I don’t think they want to go through all that effort.
Here’s a little something from Nicollette’s FB:
what is a “stayed company”?
I think he meant ‘spayed’.
Maybe he meant… stagnant/stagnated?
That sounds likely.
I’m feeling a bit melancholy tonight. Listening to Irish folk music.
It’s 7 years today that I first encountered Nicky. I know that is a long time to carry on a war. But every time I have ignored him for any length of time, he has come after me and mine again.
I think he meant staid, although I don’t think he knows what that word really means.
English is not Nicky’s strong suit.
Come to think of it nothing is Nicky’s strong suit. He is the epitome of weaksauce.
“What is your fascination with homosexuality anyway?”
A great question, just asked in the wrong direction, Mr Nut Rubber.
I think you’ve just come up with a new nickname for Nicky. 😀
you had best grab screenshots of the fight thread at dark writers. Nicky and I are having an argument.
Looks like he did what he always does in threads like this: Tell us to buy his print works to get examples of how great his writing is or brag about a story he’s shopping around.
In other words, the whole thread was little more than an attempt to shill his stuff.
I’d like to see him actually put up or shut up, instead of trying to come off like Ghandi or Moses come down from on high to tell everyone what sinners they are.
It has become hilarious. I offered a contest idea and he’s just ignoring it.
He’s been on that Rightly Conservative page of mine in the past few weeks leaving love.
Gay love.
The “mindfuck style fight” is the one in which he fucks the other guy to death . . . in his own mind. 😉
“My Fight Scene or Sex Scene thread turned out into a full on maylay of words and got hijacked.”
He can’t even spell melee never mind write it. Also he mentioned showing the owner of Lovecraft Press his website, the name was familiar and a quick Google turned up a Keene blog post from a few months back asking them to explain themselves to writers they owed royalties to.
He’s just irritated that someone’s finally called him out on all the bullshit he’s been spewing that thread.
They Live? Seriously? Predator? WTF?
Then once again we get his claims of being trained in: Boxing (While waiting to be separated from the Navy), wrestling (Where he was the best in his High School and used his skills to take down people who picked on him), Kendo (Telling people he’s been trained with swords and would love to catch them and beat them with a “wooden practice sword”), Judo (Since everyone knows that grotesquely obese hunchbacks are Judo experts), training by martial arts experts (Like he leaves his basement), training in fight choreography (Once again, a claim that he left his basement), and his extensive street fighting experience (By getting beat up by a 15 year old girl).
Then, when he finally gets called on all this bullshit, he starts with the pity party and plays the victimization cards.
Once again proving that for all his talk he’s a chickenshit.
I asked this: “So what’s next? Using Dirty Harry or the Death Wish series for gun fight scenes?”
“Hey A**hole — the gun fight scenes came from watching the gun fight that happened in North Hollywood. I didn’t rip Dirty Harry or Deathwish for the gun fights. The gun fight scenes came fast in the story, and the ending was really fast paced.
“So you copied HEAT?
And can you cite or provide a source of the bank robbing bookstore owner? You can email me if you want.”
Nick sayz:
“I am talking about the one that the crooks used high powered A.K. 47s and body armor from head to toe. The one that lasted 45 minutes. I saw things about that all the time here, and one that happened here in Chicago between a former bookstore owner and the cops (they financed the bookstore by robbing banks.) I have a friend who lives in the area now but she was from Chicago via Tel Aviv.”
“I didn’t copy heat — I got the gun fight sequence from real events. So if you’re going to say I was ripping someone off, get the hell out of this thread.”
I have been offline for sometime due to a family emergency (cancer claimed another loved one this past weekend sadly) and missed the “choose your words carefully morons” email that Nicky sent a lot of us, so this morning was the first I read and responded to it, and here is the reply

You don’t own Lake Fossil Press you faggot. You’re just a troll that has a following from other trolls. I got a tv show helping me find out who you are and the world will know you’re a fucking fraud. I just got the help of the show and they will not only find out who you are but also tell the world that you’re a fucking cyberbully. You can either go hang yourself now or after I expose you. I guess you got it from that faggot who calls ils R. I don’t drink asshole so you with that e-mail is libeling me every step of the way. So I am going to expose you for the troll you are who hides behind not having a name or not having a face. “
I got someone who e-mailed me offering to help me find out who you are.
That would be me, Frank. Here is the email he sent me.
RE: cyber detective work
…
From:
Nickolaus Pacione
To: Frank Kopple
Hey Kopple — I need help finding out who a particular trouble maker is and here’s the phone number. I tried to press chargres on him but that didn’t work but I managed to shut down one of his e-mail addresses. He’s trying to say he owns my publishing company. I think you were talking to Apathademon, and I hardly give out this e-mail address. The phone number is (646) 465-7602. I am looking to do an expose on him and his false practices. he’s nothing but a cyber bully that likes to say he’s in charge but when he puts the domains around which are bogus he would do a lot of bogus things, here’s an example of them. He posted an address for a suite number in Seattle, Washington, and he got pissed off that I was playing with his cellphone on the listing. I actually got the loser swearing.
The web url’s he abuses are the following http://angryinillinois.deviantart.com and he made the statement again on http://www.youtube.com/angryinillinois then he made his way onto xanga.com saying he was the first “editor-in-chief” not to be banned http://angryinillinois.xanga.com. I hardly use my hotmail address because I get a lot of spam in it, and with gmail I am a packrat. He also hides behind not having a name online and uses fake addresses in Seattle. He vandalized my magazine’s listing to make it look like an alternative magazine, when it’s not.
I don’t have a lot of money, if you’re friends with Apathademon (aka Chris) then you might know a little bit about what i told him. I told him exactly what was going on, I went to the police but they told me to block his phone. I am on a fixed income so my currency right now is signing a few books. I need to find out who he is and where he is so he can be stopped. Once someone finds out who the cyberbully really is, then they start getting scared. He was saying I am scared of him because I don’t have the stones to talk to him on the phone. What I want to do to him is shove him into the ocean full of sharks and let the sharks do the job for me. I will send you screencaps I took and everything — just give me a minute to find them. I am so scatterbrained it isn’t even funny. I am just getting this e-mail right now in fact.
What I am is an investigative journalist so I did some detective work on my own with him. I trapped him in five lies as it is. He came up with the libelous lie of me sleeping with my pen name. Then he came up with the lie about me defalting on a loan where I used my publishing company as coladeral. I wasn’t originally going to enlist a PI to do the job but when I got his address I was going to give him a little street justice. I’ve been watching this loser since he made the shocking revelation that he was the “owner” of my company and said I was forclosed when it’s not true. I will give you an article I wrote about the situation too so you have an idea what I am dealing with in terms of the enemy here — he even got me screwed out of a publication deal with a small press called Lame Goat Press with his bs touting that he was going to lift my no sex ban.
I got a true to life cyberbully here and I want to get him shut down on all levels for good. I want to see him going to justice for harassing someone of a disabled nature (I am disabled because of mental health reasons.) My articles will give some clues about them too and point out all their bogus domains too — let me get those. This is the one I was looking for, an author bullied. This would be the other article that is a full documentation of what was going on.
With my e-mail address on hotmail, I have rarely used it in recent years unless I am communicating with my younger sister. This one is really out for blood because I got his accounts shut down and I can get proof of this too. I am going to be pulling out a particular blog where the sack of fail blew his top. I was playing it cool with him there, but I was just warning him if he changes it again — I will find out who he is and use his real name in a horror story and make a mint off him. So with this being said — I hope you actualy nail him. Here’s the blog entry where I post his actual e-mail and e-mail addres. He actually cussed me out. The one I am calling a homo is AngryInIllinois (and this being his yahoo ID.) I shut down his e-mail address on another account he opened.”
And if you guys are wondering what show he is working with?
Nickolaus Pacione
To: Frank Kopple
Steve Wilkos. I just got in touch with one of their producers with more information and I am going to crush AngryInIllinois on the air with all his lies about me. He claims that I am an alcoholic but I barely drink. I have one beer and that’s it I don’t get drunk. He calls me a child beater when I will never raise a hand to a child. I put my child up for adoption. I want to bring your information with me when I go on the show and you will come on with me to help expose the cyberbully for what he is. A liar and a bully. You’ve seen what he did, he’s a troll whose following is other trolls.”
Wohoo, investigative journalist was the last spot on my bingo card. Now to email Nicky and find out what I’ve won.
Holy wall-o’-text!
He’s trying to get you to do PI work for free?
Did you tell him that when it comes out that he’s threatened to burn people’s kids alive, rape their wives, and murder them, he’s probably going to be the one painted as a cyberbully?
Or did you just read the email, laugh, and go on to a paying job?
Or am I reading this wrong, and you AREN’T the real PI that Nicky’s trying to hire?
Does this mean I can get to be on TV again? I am fully willing to go live with what all has been going on and the screenshots of what he has tried to do to my daughter.
How big and brave is lil NIcky going to look when it comes out that he’s been threatening to beat up an old woman in a wheelchair?
I think I’m going to refute that whole email on my blog, Frank.
http://50-foot-ant.blogspot.com/
Feel free to peruse my refutation of his wildly inaccurate claims.
Sorry to hear about your loss. I’ve lost folks I cared about to cancer, and it’s hard.
Personally I think it would be a laugh riot if folks took him up on his offer to go on a talk show. It would be great to see his ugly ass handed to him on national TV.
“Investigative journalist” my ass.
Nicky used that phrase on his latest WordPress entry, where he spends half of it ranting about me, and how he’s better than I because I actually work for a living. In that entry, he’s all confident that just because he found out where I work at on Facebook, that information is going to be “damaging” to me.
Well, no, it doesn’t work that way. Since I have nothing to hide, I have most of my Facebook profile set on public view, so essentially anybody with a computer could have found that out. Yet, Nickolaus Pacione acts like it’s some kind of major triumph, as if he spent months trying to find out anything that could be construed as “damaging”. Because of this, I cannot take this, or anything he says seriously, because Nicky’s primary source of income is collecting disability and generally refusing to contribute to society in any meaningful way.
Oh, and he also threatened to “call my boss” if I ever said anything about him ever again, making sure I’ll end up on the unemployment line. Sorry, Nicky, that would probably only work if I were posting here while on company time. Since my job doesn’t involve working with computers with internet access, there goes that little scheme of his. (This is another clear example of Pacione’s tendency to go tattle on those people who’ve gotten the best of him in any kind of skirmish. Apparently, I missed an edict where it became a crime to prove a mentally challenged human being wrong, or call him/her out on their anti-social behavior on the computer.)
What was even more laughable is that Nicky bitched about how he was considering “suing me”, but then went on to say that I steal from my job, and my dad has AIDS, two statements that are not true, and in fact, were probably pulled out of his fat ass. Imagine that, someone threatens to sue somebody else for libel, and he turns around and makes two libelous statements about the person he’s threatening to take to court. That only makes sense in Nicky’s fantasy world.
P.S. I just might post the stupid message Nicky sent to my mom on Facebook during his epic meltdown last weekend if there’s enough interest. Oh, it’s a riot…
post it.
I would love to see it.
Ditto — post it, Ben!
That note is now posted!
email-wise he’s ranting at me a lot today.
You will know in due time when it happens because you will not expect it. You are the biggest liar about me because I am not a baby abuser. You like to make up the most lies about me and I tell the truth. The truth is you don’t own my company and the domains you use to represent the company are libel domains (the faggot wrote stories as my maternal grandmother.)
I am not banned for life. I got an open adoption, and that was the only way I would have put him for adoption. I am not gay or ever will be gay — you’re willing to lie to my face about it and as this show airs, I will expose you for it and as they arrest you for being a cyberbully I will give you a parting shot. So you want to lie about me or tell the truth, you are clearly not telling the truth your fucking faceless pussy. You’re about as vicious as the fucking terrorists who go around doing the things they do. You are a lowly asshole who hides. You’re a troll who has a following from other trolls. I will have your cell phone shut off when that show airs and I got a private investegator looking for where you live. You just give a first name but I doubt that is the name you’re given with.
Open adoption sure, because Melany has seen her son many times because she can and cares enough. Even if Nicky were telling the truth then why didn’t he ever make an effort to see their son?
and here is another piece of an email where he is no longer hiding that he pretended to be Lloyd
“ I am a heterosexual and own Lake Fossil Press. Being someone else — that’s what writers do when they take a pen name. You are trying to be my pen name on another site and I caught you red handed. The domains you use to represent the company are libel sites — sites that write as my grandmother and was pulled from Lulu.com. I don’t lie about the ownership, just that you’re not telling the truth. I never lost the company or will lose the company, you are going to be someone’s bitch at Riker’s Island because you’re committing harassment by wire. “
That’s odd, Nicky’s telling you that he’s allowed to see his son, but choses not to? That makes him into an even more terrible person.
But wait, doesn’t he rant on his blog repeatedly that he can’t visit his son because of the mean nasty social worker and the corrupt evil government conspired against a writer of dark horror and took away his visitation rights because they were afraid his dark horror writing would scare his son and the son’s parents.
Not that, you know, threatening the case worker and cussing out everyone involved was the reason.
And I love how he claims to only drink a beer now and then, but in his blog and in the emails he was sending off to everyone, he was talking about how he drinks massive amounts of alcohol because it makes him so manly.
Which is it, Nick? Do you only drink a beer now and then, or do you pound down the MGD, Vodka, and manly whine coolers? (heh)
Yes he often said his work was his way of getting his name out there so his son could find him in time.
I’m sure Melany has said he can’t be told anything about the kid either, and I know who I believe there.
As for this tv show, the only way anyone would want to get him on one is because they can see what a nutso nutbag he is and can laugh at him.
I highly doubt he’d ever be allowed to see his son. All the threats of violence and death threats scared the couple that adopted him. Hell will freeze over before Nicky is allowed near his son.
Good, Melany, I’m glad that the system is working.
Plus, what’s really the chance that he’ll heave his grotesque bulk out of his grandmother’s basement and actually try to see his son?
That would mean bathing, washing his clothing, brushing his teeth, and trying to be a coherent speaking human being.
I have a better chance of winning the bronze medal in female gymnastics than he has of actually doing any of that.
Y’know, he might be a pretty good writer if he could bring the same level of creative imagining he lends his paranoid and delusions rantings to his other fiction, the stuff he tries to foist off on an unimpressed publishing world.
Nah, I didn’t think so either.
That should be paranoid and delusional rantings. Mea culpa.
I assume that what he has been doing is to dig through Rusty’s stuff here to show MR. PI Frank.
So let’s get this straight.
My name is Janice Rae Frank. I have written under the name Janrae Frank for over 30 years.
I’m willing to take it to the mat with anyone who tries to defend what Nicky has done all these years to people.
He’s been a little more cautious about poking around here since he read this entry — only once or twice a day, the past few days. Before that, he was doing some serious digging for 20-30 minutes a pop.
I lost my temper again. But this Steve Wilco is clearly trying to get himself a name by allowing people to contact him about whatever he thinks will get him some slice of the yelling and screaming pie.
Steve Wilkos was the head of security for The Jerry Springer Show, before he got his own TV show, and started doing ads for Gold Rush (one of those Cash4Gold-type rip-offs).
If you go after Angry, then you’re going after me. You see, I had been ignoring Nicky for a long time and then he went after me and my daughter again out of the blue.
Some friends who knew how much it hurts me when he goes after my child, asked what I wanted to do about it.
I tried to get the stuff taken down and could not accomplish it, so I told them to make him scream.
I wanted him to hurt as much as he has hurt me over the years with his harassment and cruelty.
This is all mine.
Why would Nicky have to wait for this other person to learn who’s in Issue 12? I take it he accepted a submission from someone who Nicky thinks the other guy hates, just to get back at him or whatever. But sheesh, you’d think he’s expecting fireworks from the other guy simply because he (Nicky) always reacts like that.
that’s a reference to the person who posed as the Steven from SNS (?) who came to my blog spouting off like he was the STeven from TDFS’s BDSM master.
I wonder if Nicky’s big surprise for Issue 12 is still Ray Faraday Nelson. Ptaylor posted something about that on Vampire Freaks a while back (some thread where everyone was calling Nicky on his BS), but since we hadn’t heard anything from Nicky about it, I thought maybe it didn’t pan out. Now though…?? Nelson wrote the short story that the movie “They Live” was based on – and Nicky has certainly been dropping that title a bunch lately.
So the media in CT that he’s been going on about in a recent mass email, the one that’s to expose so many people… is Steve Wilko?
Ha! I love that show. For those who don’t know, he was the bouncer from Jerry Springer’s that’s hosting a spin-off show. Not much different than Springer, but a little less fighting and everyone must take a lie detector test. Results are told after all the arguing.
It’s entertaining, but far from credible media. Perfect for the likes of Nicky and yes, Steve would see through the craziness fast.
Wilkos would see through it, but Nicky is delusional enough that he might pass the lie detector test. I’m convinced he believes the shit he makes up about people to justify his threats, etc.
True. In order to fail a lie detector test, you have to know you’re lying. Or yawn at the wrong time and get a false positive, which is why courts don’t accept polygraph testimony. Anyhow, he’s been confabulating so long, he probably would pass one, which would open the door for all sorts of fun, if enough of his detractors are invited. I love chicago, personally. My favorite big city. Pay my tab and I’ll be glad to appear with Sphincter Boy.
He’s obviously off his medication again.
Check out this oh so awesome “press release”
http://darkwriters.ning.com/profiles/blogs/holy-crap-about-12
For fuck’s sake, just once can’t he release a professional press release without babbling about what a victim he is and how everyone is mean to him?
No wonder nobody will take him seriously, when he writes press releases like those.

You don’t own dick. I run Lake Fossil Press and I will have the artist for Issue 12 and the models in my grasp. Nice try with the troll posing as a private investegator. I know you’re a libelous dick and I am going to expose this on national television. You’re world is going to burn in shit you faceless troll.
You’re a faceless coward and a troll who chases me forum to forum saying you’re “In charge” your not in charge of anything. Writings From The Grave is my property and you don’t own that either. So kindly fuck off while I set your fucking world on fire like you set my books on fire — I am going to send you to hell in a public way you fucking queer. At least I don’t have a sick interest in unicorns. None of the covers will have a fucking Unicorn or a faggot wearing a Cthulhu G-String.
What you are is equal to the assholes who shot up Collumbine and I fight with their groupies on a regular basis. I will chew you out and spit you out Thommy Boy. The days of you hiding are numbered. I see right through your lies and so does the real Lake Fossil Press roster — not the “roster” you say are the Lake Fossil Press “writers.”
You’re a troll with a following of other trolls. Who came up with the lie about a loan because you were pissed off at my no sex rule. I will run The Ethereal Gazette and Lake Fossil Press no matter what — the only way you can stop me is if you commit murder. And I am sure you like to have some bitch in Riker’s Island.”
“…the models in my grasp” 0__o
If I remember correctly, you can’t pass a lie detector if you believe it’s true. There’s a long scientific explanation about how your answers come from different parts of the brain and that’s how they tell, but I can’t recall the specifics.
However, a schizophrenic person can screw up a lie detector test simply because the brain is functioning differently. The medications can throw answers off, as well.
All I know is that I couldn’t pass a polygraph test. Even when I told the truth.
In my navy days processing clearances part of my duty was to babysit the polygrapher. He showed me how everything worked. It measures heart rate, breathing, nerve impulses, etc.
From the I’m New to Photography page:
“My best covers actually came from a video camera that shot still pictures. I got the camera for only $79.00 on a rebate from Radio Shack then I got a better camera for the same price that’s a 10 megapix. I paid $130 for the camera and it’s a Fuji Camera (I have rechargible batteries with this one and have a memory card that allows me 300 pictures in one sitting).
When I was doing photography on film my first camera was a Minolta . The cops broke the other camera so I couldn’t use it again sadly and it was my favorite one. I am looking to test this new one out when I get a few models to work with. I used to work in a dark room and develop my own pictures. Since I don’t have a dark room now I use Photobucket for the grayscale. I use the other program for the unique color scemes.”
He just bought another new camera? Where’s Mr. Nut Rubber getting all this money?
Knowing him?
He either shoplifted it, or refused to leave the store and stop stinking the place up until they gave it to him because he’s bipolar and people should give him free stuff for being a wirter of horor and being bipolar.
I have a dual camera that is like that, it was a smaller photo camera that does both the still and video. I have a picture of this camera floating around one of my profiles. Took a picture of it using a camera that got knocked into a puddle and later shorted out. The reason I got the vid camera originally was to do the trailor for my novella, and for a vlog documenting my release from the hospital in early 2007. I used this camera for stills more than anything — the back cover of Issue 5 has a self-portrait on our ice block like fountains just as it changed to red. It was an eerie cyberpunk type photo.
From the “Worst Story Ever” thread
So I decided that if we’re allowed to after authors, I’d explain why Nickita’s little tales of fancy fit the bill.
Looks like your comment was axed.
Peaches sayz” Issue 12 is going to be a monster (not kidding before the artwork and the pictures going into it. 257 pages. Waiting on two more stories.)
Andrew B: sent u mine dude :]
Nikki: Man I will check it in a minute. This is going to be huge. :laughing: It might be bigger than Tabloid Purposes: Book Five. I am waiting fortwo of the artists
Peaches sayz: Blasting AC/DC — helps with he editing progress. I have The Razors Edge. Takes me back to my freshmen year and working the regional wrestling tourney.
Crystal Pegasus: when I was writing it was Dio, Black Sabbath and Def Leppard, Dio being a great choice for allegorical/horror poetry.

“This is a question I have to ask the gore writers — the question of the kind of gore they do had been presented, but the question is now is how visceral can you get? One of my scenes in Spectral Exile I had a ghostly door slam on one of the club patrons choping the hand off exposing bone. GAME OVER I have some gruesome deaths in there — I have two Vlad The Imaplers. You have to do some research on what a Vlad The Impaler death is, that is when Vlad Dracul would stick his enemies on a stake and dip bread into a bowl of their blood.”
My reply:
“In Game Over, I have a two family members kidnap two separate people. The first one; who is female, is given a dose of Pavulon and then is basically skinned alive, dying as she is stabbed in the heart. The second kidnap victim is male who is tortured, and has a leg, feet, and hands removed by farm implements.
The female is ground into sausage and served in a diner, the male is hung in a tree by a river, minus said body parts.”
Pavulon in a muscle relaxer and is used in lethal injections.
In the hands of someone who can actually write those might be interesting deaths. In the hands of Nicky you know they’re going to be boring and he’ll tell us they were killed ‘in the manner of some better horror writer’.
Nicky has no idea about Vlad and what he did or how the impalements were carried out. There was actually more than one type of impalement.
The ugliest was the type employed by the Ottoman Turks. I read some fairly graphic accounts of it as research for writing one of my own.
The only way that Vlad would have been drinking their blood would have been with a stomach impalement. Otherwise that blood would have been mixed with shit and urine.
So, assuming that Nick is envisioning it as an Ottoman style impalement, then he is getting off on the idea of drinking urine and shit with the blood.
If he thinks getting a limb lopped off is “visceral horror,” then he seriously needs to avoid my forthcoming book from Bandersnatch, Dreadful Doctor Faust, where I did an extensive male genital dismemberment and degloving.
Than again, I hope he reads it! 😉
Let me know when it comes out, Karen. I really want to read it.
I may also have deeply offended Nicky by describing an Ottoman Turk style impalement over at the visceral thread on dark writers.
Here’s the entirety of one of Nicky’s “gruesome deaths”:
“That contributor died in a matter of weeks – found impaled on a steel rod in vein of Vlad The Impaler. His arms and legs dangling like some macabre exhibit of flesh, and the photograph was used as a backdrop for one of the stories within the pages of IN THE DEPTHS.”
And another:
“Lisa Carglio was found impaled to the top of the fence like the way Vlad The Impaler would impale his victims while eating his diner – he would put them through a long spike and they would bleed out. He used their blood to dip his bread – her blood was covering the entire fence as she plummeted out of the balcony window of her second floor apartment in Chicago.” And a bit later regarding the same death, “Plummeting down a second floor balcony then head first hitting the spike on the fence, echoing the way Vlad The Impaler would kill his enemies.”
Very little description besides “like Vlad did”. Nicky has not learned anything as a writer these past years.
Of course he hasn’t learned anything. That’s why he can’t sell anything.
Great info on Vlad, Jan. I recall reading a book on Tepes many years ago, but I don’t think it ever went into the specifics of how he tortured his victims. I never researched it because I never had to write a scene that involved impalement. I’m more of a flaying fan, myself. 🙂
I do get a kick out of what Nicky considers “horror,” like amputation, impalement, a public hanging or “getting pulled under ice”–WTF, The Omen 2 or 3 did that AGES ago–is the worst possible fate that a human being can endure. Or maybe we just have very disturbing imaginations!
TY, Karen.
I haven’t done a flaying yet, but I have some thumbnail notes on a possible one in one of my second series lycan books.
He does not grasp the fact that ‘visceral’ can be psychological as well as physical. Often the subtle psychological stuff can be more terrifying that the graphic.
I agree, Cuss. Mary’s very good at visceral psychological stuff. The Hollower was chock full of it.
Mary is amazingly talented. I own one of her short story collections and I got to read two stories in it before Natalie kidnapped it and it took me two months to get it back. lol.
Nikita’s facebook is full of win:
” Rreading Boughton’s entry — the other twin in the two stories that I got. Wow this is good. He really outdid himself here. I think I am writing the triplet with The Fandom Writer 2. :laughing: It’s set right in the similar territory of the sequel.
Janet P-C Hi Sweets!
Pickles “He’s a rising star, and when this comes out it’s going to launch him. I got Terry Vinson on the same issue and a high profile but I am keeping that a secret between me and the roster right now along with my insiders and long time friends. I don’t want anyone blurting him out because I don’t want the trolls harassing him via e-mail.”
“Just waiting for The Scorpion Temple. Boughton’s story is going to be one of the breakaways — this is the only one from Issue Five. He closed Issue 5 out. Once I get all the stories, then I can work on the visuals that go with it.”
” I am looking foward to reading The Scorpion Temple by S.G. Cardin. It will read like a collaboration between me and Barbara Malenky if we were working with H.P. Lovecraft. Skinner you’re going to see this one before it goes to print.”
“Oh shit :laughing: This is funny but my room mates can state, I can’t stand working with linux. If you’re an editor you need windows or some kind of program like it. Working with Macs are a nightmare in this too. I couldn’t read Mac sent submissions because they used a word processor exclusive to Macs.” (Some dumbass tagged him in a Linux penguin graphic for Villain)
“Wow Donna Burgess gave her endorsement of Tabloid Purposes IV — thanx Donna and Naked Snake Press. Check out my publisher, she breathes once again.”
And on other peoples walls: “Welcome to 11 man. I see you’re working with wix. Donna Burgess of Naked Snake Press uses them. Dude you should try sending your longer work to Donna — tell her you worked with me previously. Your story is stronger in 11 than the one you wrote on 7.”
This one — I fucking want it. But I don’t have too much room left on my book cases. I am stacking books upon books right now. Copies of Issue 10, my memoir (I got three copies fo these. One of them for a friend of mine who has a documentary out. One called I HUNT GHOSTS which is my territory in horror. Look up Mr. Willy and Spooky Show Entertainment.)
I am reading the twin stories — when these go to press, you’re going to love them. They’re set around computers, chatrooms and the internet. Just like my sequel I am working on which is set around this world too.
Your picture works with the story. I am going to use it because it goes around technology and the horror that goes into it.
I guess Nikki “Turd for Brains” Pacione never heard of Office for Mac. Nor does he know Open Office has a Mac version — and a Linux version.
I agree Mike. I’m on a Windows machine, and I regularly trade Word and Excel files with a consultant who uses a Mac. No conversion necessary.
I”m running office 03 and windows xp and I get mac subs all the time and have no difficulty with them.
Adam got things moving on the fight or sex scene thread. We’ve both posted a fight scene.
From the board owner in the Worst Story thread.
” Please don’t name Brian Keene on this board in a bad way. He is actually one of my favorite authors. So lets please be nice.”
I wonder of Nicky will whine about how mean Keene was to him, the special little snowflake that he is.
He already has.
At least he spelled my name right. And it only took him five years.
He probably cut and pasted.
“Sorry he actually puts me in a bad light all the time…”
Again, he makes a statement about someone else when it clearly should be about himself.
How could anyone put Nicky in a worse light than his own personality?
Barnes and Noble don’t work with indies. Bastards. I was trying to get Darkened Horizons: Issue 3 and An Eye In Shadows — any bookstores willing to give some indies a chance?
Justin V: Try Unique Gifts and Games in Grayslake. They are great people there.
Pickles: I might do that. I am going with lulu.com and createspace.com with this one issue. I am trying to get signings with some of my revamped titles.
I think this 12th Issue is going to have a lot of powerhouses in it. A lot of first time authors who came swinging and showing how muscular they can go. Damn — Now is what Lake Fossil Press is designed to do. Keep them coming guys. Make the puppets dance.
Issue 12 is full of puppetmaster style horror writers and hardlined dark science fiction — damn I did I say it’s got dark scifi (that is a first. The scifi is darker than the horror!) YEAH!
Pickles: Hey Justin — I knew you’d approve of this. One of the writers edited an anthology of his own, check out author Robert Essig.
I am giving you some territory to work with and push it from there. More frightening that stands long after the story is read than leave them repulsed. I go for a dark delivery when it comes to horror. My strongest traits in horror is when I write ghost stories or when I go Lovecraftian.
Jason Hughes What?
I don’t get it.
By popular demand, here’s Nicky’s message to my mom on Facebook during his epic meltdown last weekend…
Subject: you’re all losers
For the record, when Nicky had the idea to call here, I wasn’t home. I was actually up in the Chicago area, and I could have been in Morris within an hour had I so chosen. I’m not sure where Nicky got this thing about Mom not letting him get a word in edgewise, unless he got totally pissed after she asked why he was calling here to “tattle on me”.
I should also note that while I wasn’t here that epic evening, my parents were, as was my dad’s father, my sister, and my youngest niece, who was only nine years old at the time. One of Mom’s concerns was making sure my niece wasn’t subjected to a colorful display of foul language and threats that she probably had never even imagined were possible.
Well, Nikki’s chances of working at a “bigger” magazine are less than zip, since he couldn’t pass fifth grade English. Also, is Nicky that stupid that he thinks a company can pay below the state minimum mandate wages? Or does he think his disability pays more than that?
Never mind, I answered my own question — he is that stupid.
He’s probably stupid enough to think minimum wage is still $5 something an hour. I get paid $7.50 an hour at my two jobs. Those people you look down on make more in a week than you do in a month Nicky doodle.
So, all these years later, he’s still obsessed with your mom for daring to question his tattletale behavior when he gave her an earful in your absence.
Nicky, daaahling — she pwned your whiny, flatulent ass! Get over it.
It just occurred to me that he really does think of the dole as his “state wages.” Um, no. Wages are earned. There’s nothing earned about the check he receives every month from the government.
When you get right down to it, his entitlement regarding his SSI check, the fact that he doesn’t report his income to the State, the fact that he lives with his grandma and doesn’t pay his fair share all point to one conclusion.
He’s a welfare queen.
That’s right, Mr. Conservative, Mr. Dark Horor Wirter with a Conservative Viewpoint is nothing more than the very welfare queen he rants and raves about.
The irony is fantastic every time he insults people for having a job.
Drama queen, welfare queen, drag queen… I think it all stems from his disappointment over not being voted Prom Queen on high school.

Just saying…
Work has begun on the EG page.
Darn it. He’s already correcting them. Oh well, the crap he writes is embarrassing enough without my help:
There are many, many more moronic lines like these if you have the energy to read through endless walls-o-text.
Funnier and funnier
So much to laugh about on those pages. That put me in the mood to do laundry and my accounting homework. LOL
A GREAT book on Vlad is In Search of Dracula by Raymond T. McNally & Radu Florescu.
Dipping his bread in blood is what led people to believe Vlad was a living vampire, and since impaling was only one of many forms of execution he performed, he could get the blood from several different ways.
He loved to boil people (especially boil women’s children, then force the women to eat them), flay them, cut off various parts, drive nails into them… impaling was just his favorite, and with several ways of going about that, depending on how the “confessions” went – how much they pleased him whether they were truthful or not; it was all about his entertainment.
But yeah, simply saying “like Vlad did it” is pretty vague, lol. It’s like saying someone was tortured “like the Inquisition did” when there are so many forms of doing that.
Reading about Vlad the Impaler taught me the different effects of the different types of stakes. There was more to it than just hucking someone onto a big stake and letting them be impaled through the torso front to back or back to front.
There were short and tall, blunt and sharp, narrow and wide, and all of them differed.
Vlad also had some people castrated and the stake inserted into the bloody hole just to mix stuff up now and then.
So whenever Nicky states “Just like Vlad did” I have to wonder what kind of stake it was, was it inserted into the rectum, the vagina, or into a hole where the penis had once been.
The time that he had over 300 prisoners impaled just ahead of the arrival of an Ottoman Turk army beat them at their own game of shock.
It was very impressive. I own the book you suggest, Jerrod. I have a couple more. But the best information I got on the Ottoman Turks style impalement actually came from translations of some eastern European books. I can’t remember the titles right off, but I’ll try to dig my way through to them. I am sorting through boxes of books (have been off and on for a month), looking for some other stuff.
Admittedly I brought that anal version up just to rile Nicky.
Absolutely, cuss, and it’s true that a lot of them were put in the poop shoot, then propped up so the victim sloooowly WENT DOWN on it, taking hours to die.
Much like when Peaches lost his virginity, I’m sure. That probably explains his fascination with impalement… you know, like Vlad did it.
As to why he’s lurking here, the timing’s about right for him to find a page, screenshot it, then run away giggling about what a master he is.
Expect him to try to get the site either shut down, or him to use the screenshots as “evidence” of how we’re all cyberbullies and he’s pure as the driven snow.
Only if it’s yellow Ant =P
Niki is leaving bombs on other pages again.
” I sent you an e-mail with explicit instructions — put it like this. This is huge. It might launch both our companies into something more.”
something huge? Like debris? Flotsam and Jetsam?

New comment on here could well send Nicky over the edge…
Can anyone with passable Shop skillz work with this and substitute writer for poet?
http://avec.rondom.org/~mark/img/internet-truth.jpg
I feel it’s wholly applicable to Nick =)
I loved the premise but I felt like tailoring it to fit Nicky alone.

I am sooo stealing that, Lewis. Thanks!
That was totally the type of thing I had in mind, thank you Lewis! My only quibble is the last panel zips by a bit too quickly =)
Too bad I don’t have an account on that Dark Writers’ site, or I’d post “The Egoless Writer” just to see Nick blow a gasket. Although if someone asked to copy it, I wouldn’t say no…
His bio can also be edited. Score!

Stuck in moderation…
Is he honestly claiming that he was one of the people who were blamed for the Columbine Shootings?
He really will use any and all tragedies to make himself look better, will he?
he tries to make himself look better. he normally makes himself sound like more of a twat every time he starts typing though.
