Order now, and we’ll throw in a saucy blurb by the awesome Mary SanGiovanni, AND an introduction by Yours Truly! (well, okay, okay, order any time and those will still be included)Levity aside, this book is dedicated to the memory of Daverana Enterprises’ own too-recently-departed Janrae Frank … who believed in and supported this project from the very beginning. We miss you, Cuss.
The preview was a rollicking good read — sometimes scary, sometimes funny, but all good.
I really, really, really wish Janrae was here to celebrate this with us. I hope she’s somewhere pleasant, doing a happy dance.
Same here. Now that I have my copy, I finished reading your story. Old Bossie, indeed. It was wild, weird, and completely over the top. I chuckled my way through the entire thing.
Glad you liked it. 🙂 It is by far the most gruesome thing I’ve ever written for publication. I might need to go back to that well a few more times. It was fun.
Loved it! First one I read due to the title looked fun. Each time I thought you would not take it further-you went way beyond what I was expecting.
I lifted a glass in her memory when out celebrating the release! 🙂
This totally made my day! 😀
I haven’t finished the anthology yet, but there are some outstandingly funny pieces!
In particular I loved: Mark Orr, Stinky Cat, and Jerrod Balzer’s work! Can’t wait to finish it, and I hope it inspires a Fossil Lake II!
Thank ya! I hope we can do a sequel. I’ve got so many new stories running around in my head.
