According to Paul Goblirch at Thunderstorm Books, the softcover edition
of The Sick Stuff has arrived from the printer and is now ready
for shipping!
The Sick Stuff is a mini collection of seven extreme horror tales
that I wrote way back during the splatterpunk era of the early nineties.
It contains three previously published stories ("Diary,"
"Housewarming," and "Old Hacker") as well as four
tales never before seen in print ("Mass Appeal," "Pins
& Needles," "The Abduction," and "Mojo Mama").
The softcover
edition features an introduction by James Newman and cover art by Zach
McCain. The Sick Stuff is #2 in Thunderstorm's Elemental Series,
Nate Southerd's Just Like Hell being the first. The Elemental Series is
in a small, digest-type format that would easily fit in your hip pocket
or in the palm of your hand. The Sick Stuff may be small in
stature, but it packs a whallop at 140 pages, each and every one
dripping with depraved and disgusting delight.
The hardcover edition of The Sick Stuff, alas, was sold out
several days following its announcement, so it is no longer available.
It features several extras for the discerning collector, including a
special creepy-crawly signature page by Zach and a special article by
Paul Little of Full Moon Press titled "Collecting Ronald Kelly."
Paul expects the softcover of The Sick Stuff to sell out fast, so
if you haven't already ordered your copy, now would be a good time to do
so. You can order directly from the publisher at
ThunderstormBooks.com
or from two other sources: Horror
Mall and Cemetery Dance.
WARNING! This tiny little book contains work that's a mite stronger and
much more disgusting than Ol' Ron's normal Southern-Fried fare, so keep
that in mind. I'm still the same down-home, good-natured fella... I just
like to get down and dirty with the rest of 'em sometimes. Hope you
enjoy it!
