It's so Easy

Image
We had so much fun the first time we're doing it again. That's right more Rock-N-Noirror.  What is Rock-N-Noirror? It's noir and or horror stories from the low down and sleazy side of rock and roll. You can find out all about it  here . (if you'd like to submit I highly recommend checking it out, plus you'll enjoy it). This time we decided to do one of those 'stories inspired by _______ all the cool indie publishers are doing. It should be easy.  So, we're looking for stories inspired by the most excellent band Guns and Roses, and/or the late 80's early 90's scene they spawned*.  *That's right, LA. Guns stories are in play. The rules as to what that entrails are pretty loose. For legal reasons keep it inspired not plagiarized, meaning no lyric quotes.  Stories need to be between 1k and 10k words. Genre is crime, horror, or sci-fi and any sub-genre of those three. Violence, sex, and bad words are not only acceptable but encouraged (do try to bring...

Free Sex, drugs, and Alcohol?

Image
No, sorry. Sure sex, drugs, and alcohol are great, and I mean really great, but you know who survives Friday the 13th? The kid who reads. Yep, the dude or dudette with their nose in a book never takes a machete to the dome. Because we like you and we can't provide sex, drugs, or alcohol we are giving away some e-books this Friday the 13th and the actual debut of Jason Saturday the 14th (watch the first movie). That's right we are saving your life from some demented invincible psychopath armed with a sharp object (yeah we'd probably pick the sex, drugs, and alcohol too but this is what we've got). So this Friday head on out to everyone's favorite fictional dive bar  Swinging Dick's Saloon  where they're always serving up tall frosty mugs of ice-cold Horror and noir and get in for free. FREE DICKS! We're also going to acknowledge that is Noirvember and throw in some free old school noir with  Captain Cooker . If you dig that one we've got the second Co...

Trick or Treat at our Place this year

Image
Sure we were planning a big party with live bands, costumes, hot wings, and all the booze you can drink but between budgetary concerns (we make no money) and the whole pandemic thing we had to scale back, way back.  Of course, we were going to have beer. Little Susie Soul Snatcher  was going to be there too. We even had a band lined up. Two Bands. So, no bands, no costumes, no hot wings, and no booze. What we do have is books. Free ones. Starting with a wicked novella full of the undead wreaking havoc from Todd Morr called The New Mexico Institute of Re-Animation, and all the post-apocalyptic zombie action and recipes you can handle in Bodie Myers' Camp Hendrix. Plus a few short horror stories perfect for Halloween from both of them called  Friday Night at Hell's Drive-In  for free all day on the 31st. FREE!!! This Halloween That should be enough but because it's Halloween we also have the horror/noir hybrid  The Walking Funeral - Hell Book 1  for free this...

Noirror? What the Hell is Noirror

Image
Here's the cover, get your name on it Yeah, what the Hell is Noirror. Well, it's a word we made up. Ever see those crime fiction anthologies dedicated to stories inspired by a band? This one is kind of like that only since we call ourselves 'Pulp Fiction that skips the boring parts' and pulp fiction includes horror and crime so we thought ours should not be strictly crime (Rock -n- Noir) or Horror (Rock -n- Horror) thus, Rock -N- Noiirror. So here's what we are looking for: Short stories in the horror and crime genres that somehow involve rock, blues or heavy metal music. Not so much famous musician stuff but down and dirty bar band stuff (bonus points if you set it in Swinging Dick's Saloon ). We want dive bar gigs instead of Stadium tours. Stories about the kind of places people do meth in the parking lot (Because it's not rock and roll if no one's doing crank in the parking lot). Places like this only not near as nice We w...
