To his self-deprecating astonishment he's also been nominated for the Story South’s Million Writers Award twice without sending the judges so much as a thank you note. He co-edited the satiric transgressive fiction collection D*CKED: DARK FICTION INSPIRED BY DICK CHENEY and his debut novel KOKO TAKES A HOLIDAY is out now from Titan Books.

FanBoy Geekin': Philly-wise

So...as per my usual dawdle before re-working the WIP, my cursor wandered over to a few favorite sites and writer blogs today. When I tapped the NEW SCIENTIST you could have knocked me over with a feather. Talk about art imitating life. Next to THE WHEELMAN and his grave-cold Punisher comic scripts, Duane Swierczynski's novel THE BLONDE is, by far, my favorite. I just dig the idea of nano-technology. On the New Scientist today the "Mary-Kates" from the THE BLONDE come to life. Sort of. Take a "Fantastic Voyage" and check this out.
