German readers – Jacks Magische Bohnen (published here in the US as Jack’s Magic Beans) is now available for Kindle. Click here to download it and start reading immediately.
There is also a possibility of me doing a German and Austrian book-signing tour in 2014. I haven’t been to Germany since a visit to Kiel in 1986, so I’m hoping this happens.
And for those of you in English-speaking countries, Jack’s Magic Beans is available in paperback, Kindle, and Nook. Click here to order.
The free book soundtrack for Darkness On The Edge Of Town is now available. You can also listen to soundtracks for Take The Long Way Home, Urban Gothic, Jack’s Magic Beans, The Cage, and Clickers II: The Next Wave.

Author Weston Ochse, not writing.
That’s friend and fellow author Weston Ochse over there to your left, who’s just written some nice things about The Last Zombie. I enjoyed my brief time at home, but I’m back to traveling again tomorrow. Next stop, Baton Rouge, to watch them film the climactic tunnel scene from Ghoul. I wrote a little bit about it here, including an explanation of why I haven’t answered your emails or returned your calls.
Speaking of Ghoul, star Nolan Gould posted this pic from the set. The IMDB page is also live. Meanwhile, Dark Hollow director Paul Campion is in Cannes this week. Here’s the trailer for his new movie The Devil’s Rock, in which Ob gets a mention. While we’re on the subject of Ob, he’s returning in the forthcoming Clickers versus Zombies (along with Jim and Danny from The Rising and City of the 
Dead).
Meanwhile, the long wait is over for Nook owners. All of my Deadite Press titles are now available for the Nook. Also, there’s a really cool hat up for auction signed by myself, Joe Hill, Peter Straub, Joe Lansdale, Steve Niles, F. Paul Wilson and over a hundred more. The proceeds benefit Bryan Smith. And finally, it appears that Osama bin Laden was watching Nickolaus Pacione videos in his hideaway.
Updates will be slow this week. Follow me on Twitter if you want to know what I’m doing, and keep an eye on TwitPic for shots from the Ghoul set.

Jack’s Magic Beans

A Gathering of Crows
Clickers

Kindle editions and old-fashioned paperbacks can be found HERE. Go forth and spend your digital money!
How to summarize the last two weeks? Well, the annual World Horror Convention in Austin, Texas was one of the best conventions I’ve ever attended in my life. I posted my thoughts on it (during an unscheduled stay in Memphis) , and also posted a whole bunch of pics from the four-day event.
Meanwhile, Entombed sold out (as predicted) and is shipping now. The Last Zombie trade paperback arrived in stores (snag one tomorrow during Free Comic Book Day). Take The Long Way Home and A Gathering of Crows were released on Kindle (Nook and Sony editions forthcoming later this month). 
Issue #11 of Shroud Magazine is also available, and contains the latest installment of my Seminal Screams column.
Filming began in Baton Rouge for Ghoul, and Nolan Gould and Barry Corbin joined the cast! I made a new free book soundtrack to accompany Jack’s Magic Beans. Dorchester Publishing continued to be douche-bags, but that’s okay, because now we are armed with attorneys!
Over at The Keenedom, Livia Llewellyn and William Ollie were the latest authors to get forums. Please 
take a moment to welcome them. Other topics of interest include: “What F.U.K.U. means to you“, the latest nonsense from Borders’ CEO, and the proper use of Brodart book covers.
Mary’s visiting this weekend, and I’m spending time with my boys for a few days next week before heading to the set of Ghoul, so updates will continue to be sporadic. Go read a book!
Step 1: Purchase a trade paperback or Kindle edition of Jack’s Magic Beans.
Step 2: Press play below, and crank it up as you read the book.
Step 3: If you like that, you might also dig my other free soundtracks .
I’m happy to announce that Take The Long Way Home and A Gathering of Crows are now both available for Kindle, as are Urban Gothic, Jack’s Magic Beans, Clickers, and Clickers II. Nook, Sony and iBook editions are forthcoming.
Jack’s Magic Beans and Clickers are now both available for the Kindle, joining the previously released Kindle editions of Urban Gothic and Clickers II. Nook, Sony and other digital editions are forthcoming.
By now, you know that Deadite Press is in the process of bringing 90% of my books back into print? If you are a bookseller or library, you’ve ordered them for your store via Ingram? If you’re a fan, you’ve purchased trade paperbacks of Urban Gothic, A Gathering of Crows, Take The Long Way Home, Jack’s Magic Beans, Clickers, and Clickers II, or Kindle editions of Urban Gothic and Clickers II?
Good. Because starting next week, they unleash the second wave with forthcoming trade paperback editions of Tequila’s Sunrise, Darkness On The Edge Of Town, Dead Sea, Castaways, and Kill Whitey, and Kindle editions of Jack’s Magic Beans, Clickers, Clickers 3, Darkness On The Edge Of Town, Dead Sea, Castaways, A 
Gathering of Crows, and Take The Long Way Home. (The Kindle edition of Kill Whitey will be offered via Cemetery Dance later this year, and the trade paperback of Clickers 3 is available via Delirium Books).
That will take us into summer. Nook and other digital editions will follow shortly. Editions of Dark Hollow, Ghost Walk, and a special movie tie-in edition of Ghoul will come in the fall. Late in the year and into early 2012, we’ll see Earthworm Gods, The Rising, City of the Dead, and their associated short story collections.
And then I’ll have a few surprises in store…
