Together for the first three of my favorite stories that had been previously published online or in small circulation magazine but are now almost impossible to find. I've bundled them together in a collection I'm calling A LOAD OF QUERTERMOUS.
LOAD - The tale of a sperm back robbery in Detroit gone off the rails, originally published in CRIMESPREE MAGAZINE
MR. SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL - A little ditty about a private detective in Flint, MI who spends his daughter's birthday helping his ex-wife's lawyer save his son from jail, originally published in CRIME SCENE SCOTLAND
ALTER ROAD - A story that follows a preacher with a violent past who faces the greatest test of faith and grace when his son is murdered by hillbilly meth dealers, originally published in THUGLIT
I've also written brand new introductions for all three stories discussing their creation and the inspiration behind them. This collection is available now for the amazing low price of $.99
