BIO

KIERAN SHEA’s fiction has appeared in dozens of venues including Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, Thuglit, Dogmatika, Word Riot, Plots with Guns, Beat to a Pulp, Crimefactory, and Needle: A Magazine of Noir ...as well as in some beefy-looking anthologies most of which will make you question the tether of his shiny, red balloon. 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. Kieran divides his time between 38°58′22.6″N- 76°30′4.17″W and 39.2775° N, 74.5750° W.

Read the Book, Then...

To break up my summer catch up reading list (mostly crime and mystery), I snatched up a copy of Junger's WAR yesterday and stayed up all night blitzing my way through it. You know what? Believe the hype, people. Believe it. I defy anyone to put this book down once they start. I'm also betting dollars to doughnuts that the Pulitzer committee already has locked in their votes. Stunning and heartbreaking. Have to see the movie, like, now.
