I've recently returned to the UK from southern Spain to find an influx of new members into the Parasitorium ranks -- a few familiar or otherwise notable names...
Happy new year Andy and everyone on the group. I hope that this year will be better for the world, writing and your physical/spiritual lives. Louise. ===== ...
Del-- Yes, you're right about evolution building humans to compete, and I don't think we need an outside source to account for all the harm humans have done to...
Hi Andy, Hope you enjoyed your holiday in Spain. I lived there three years; it's a delightful country. Our new members have arrived from Shocklines. Matt...
Joe, If you have time and are of a mind, could you explain some of the backstory of your successfully publishing work with Pocket. For instance, do you have an...
Sure, Del, be happy to. Yes, I have an agent - Bob Diforio of D4EO Literary Agency. Bob is a former publisher, Chairman, and CEO of NAL who went on to open...
Well, after nothing on Christmas or my Birthday, mother nature has seen fit to grace me with a blanket of white this morning as a new years present. :-) Happy...
Thought I'd say hello & Happy New Year. A new writer here but unpublished bigtime unless you count three of my poems printed in a small unpaying magazine. I...
Arrived a couple of days ago, still groggy from the New Year cheer, I thought I would say hi, and thank Del for his post that alerted me to the list (I typed...
I did see Dog Soldiers. I'll rent pretty much anything with a werewolf connnection. I thought Dog Soldiers was really good as well. There were times when it...
... I'm jealous. As Richard can tell you, I love snow. Of course, I live in Florida, so I see it about as often as I see a check for $15,000 in the mail!...
Joe, How do you rate the services of PublishersMarketplace? Because you have a presence there, you must think it's effective. Do you think it's a useful site...
Del, Its hard to say. I had a listing there when the site was fairly new and got a lot of attention quickly. Other folks have had listing there and gotten no...
As an alternative view I had a spot on the same sight, running for a year, offering new projects, a few rights offers, pretty much identical in style to Joe's...
That's excellent information, Joe. Thanks for providing it. I think some of our members will benefit from it, including me! I was talking to Joe Lansdale at a...
I write a column for Design, a publication for the Society for News Design. In my latest piece I made a reference to that "evil cat horking sound." I got an...
If the group continues to grow I will have to plan for a prize to the 300th member ... I'm thinking a DVD box set of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," but if anybody...
Yes, it's hard to say what works and what doesn't. I've often encountered situations where I thought I had something unique and marketable, and didn't get a...
Yeah, wouldn't you know they'd do that after I went and got the previous box set ... which is pretty nice too. BTW, if you're looking for cheap DVDs and don't...
The first impression of the movie, Wrong Turn is that it is no more than a typical, unoriginal horror film. Unoriginal? Yes. Typical? No. The reason it...
Has anybody heard of this publishing company before? If they're for real, some of you might be interested in checking it out. Unfortunately, I don't know if...
I've seen them advertising in DRAGON Magazine seeking writers. I get very, very wary, though, when a publisher's ad focuses on how they are a great outlet for...
