Nuclear Suitcase Sale!

I just realized that it has been over three weeks since I've last posted, but in that time I've been making excellent headway on a number of projects.

A) Pulpwork Press has received the final interior illustrations for a children's book I've been working on.

B) I've finished up a short story and submitted it to the editor of the upcoming Amazing Alternity anthology. This Amazing alternate universe story includes such historical figures as Amelia Earheart, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Eva Braun, and Errol Flynn, a lost city, a fleet of war zeppelins, and a secret weapon that is the key to Hitler's blitzkreig.

C) Work has commenced on Lost Tribes of the Dire Planet and Garvey Dire and his newly-expanded family are going to be in for one wild ride. The first three Dire Planet books can be purchased at Amazon.com, pulpworkpress.com, or in digital formats at fictionwise.com and BarnesandNoble.com.

D) Pulpwork Press has just announced that it has Nuclear Suitcases for sale! Now, they are not selling actual nuclear suitcases--the sale of such nuclear suitcases is what got the Gantlet Brothers (erstwhile rockstars and guns for hire) into trouble in the first place. Pulpwork Press is accepting pre-orders for my novel, The Nuclear Suitcase, at PulpworkPress.com. The advantage to being an early buyer is they are on sale for only $9.95! Once the pre-order sale is over they go up to $12.95. Pulpwork Press is having The Nuclear Suitcase printed by a different company than printed its previous titles and they have been able to knock three dollars off the standard Pulpwork cover price for a 300 page book ($15.95). That three dollar savings translates into a six dollar savings if you purchase a pre-order! Don't delay. (Also you can check out the first chapter of Nuclear Suitcase at the Pulpwork.com website)

Dark Worlds turns Red

Though I don't have a story in the latest issue of Dark Worlds this happens to be the first issue to carry a story by Derrick Ferguson who has nabbed the cover slot for issue number four.

Tale of the Baron's Tribute is a mouthful of a title, but it's a great read and tells the story of Sebastian Red, a dread-locked bounty hunter armored with juju and armed with a well worn .45 Leone Nightmaster pistol and a nasty sword forged for the Lords of Burning Iron.

Red rides the weird west on his bronze stallion Ra, and runs into a lot of trouble--often of the supernatural variety. This tale finds him hunting down bank robbers and murderers Madman McGee and Christopher Ix.

You can pick up a digital or hard copy here.

Devil Take the Hindmost at Barnes and Noble

The electronic versions of the Pulpwork Press catalog has formerly (and still is) been available at Fictionwise.com. Recently Barnes and Noble has kicked off their own proprietary E-Reader which allows books to be read on the Iphone, Ipod Touch, Blackberry, and of course the PC and Mac. This E-Reader is available as a free download from Barnes and Noble.

The exciting thing for us authors at Pulpwork is that Barnes and Noble has also picked up the complete line of Pulpwork Press books and are carrying them in this new electronic format. It's easy enough to find the titles by me, just type 'Joel Jenkins' into the search box at the Barnes and Noble ebook site. To find Derrick Ferguson's movie review notebooks or his excellent Diamondback novella just type in his name.

Hunting down books by Pulpwork Press's resident horror-meister Joshua Reynolds is a little trickier since he shares his name with Lord Joshua Reynolds who seems to have written some equally horrific books critiquing art. Instead, you'll need to type in his specific titles: Bury Me Deep, Born Under a Bad Sign, and Wake the Dead.
