A quick roundup of recent ‘Kanye West—Reanimator’ coverage:
You can now read an excerpt of section V: “The Horror of the Hova”, over at The Daily Beast.
I was interviewed by Bill Jones for Noisey.

Pleased to announce my short story, “The Hand of God”, will be published in Dark Moon Digest issue #21, due out October 1st. It is about a man who believes God is trying to possess his soul.
I made a soundtrack for “Kanye West—Reanimator” on Spotify. It features everything from classic soul to classic rock, Charles Manson to Ray Charles, and yes, even a bit of Kanye himself (but only a bit). Every song in some way relates to the book. Check it out.
UPDATED: Both the paperback and Kindle editions are now available on Amazon.
I’m pleased to announce that I’ve announced the impending publication of my book, “Kanye West—Reanimator,” over at LitReactor. It is a reimagining of Lovecraft’s classic tale, “Herbert West—Reanimator,” with everyone’s favorite petulant genius cast in the titular role. Click the link for full details, and check out the amazing cover art by Dyer Wilk below. Release date is September 1st.
My first interview as a “writer,” courtesy of the fine folks at Crack The Spine, who published my short story “Black Work.” Check it out.
My short story “Black Work” is now live at Crack The Spine. It is an exploration of Islamic folklore and the tradition of honor killing. It was inspired by a true story and started out as an attempt at writing “the other,” and when I workshopped it, one person accused me of perpetuating Islamophobic stereotypes. I guess the internet will be the judge.
Hey, somebody reviewed my short story HOMUNCULOID, along with a bunch of other stories that were pubbed by Terraform. Thanks go out to Quick Sip Reviews.
Got a new story up over at Fabula Argentea. It’s called “The Black Hole,” and is about alcoholism and singularities.
