Stuff at Bizarro Con
Heading to Portland tomorrow for Bizarro Con. Here are the things with which I've been involved that are debuting there: (1) THE MAGAZINE OF BIZARRO FICTION #2, which contains my novella THE TRAVELING DILDO SALESMAN. (2) The first four New Bizarro Author Series books: (a) ROTTEN LITTLE ANIMALS by Kevin Shamel (b) SEX DUNGEON FOR SALE! by Patrick Wensink (c) CARNAGELAND by David W. Barbee (d) NAKED METAMORPHOSIS by Eric Mays Will write more after the convention... | | Tuesday, September 15th, 2009 | | 9:53 pm |
Happened when I was a child...
A long time ago, I thought these things swimming around in a bucket in my grandmother's yard were tadpoles. I loved them; thought they would grow into frogs. They were mosquito larvae... | | Tuesday, August 11th, 2009 | | 4:03 pm |
Radio Interview + Plane Ticket
I did a radio interview (Metal Crypt) almost two weeks ago, and now it's up on youtube ... all three parts of it. http://metalcrypt.wordpress.com/2009/08/08/kevin-donihe-interview/I give my take on Bizarro at about 7 minutes 20 seconds into Part One. (Note: Some naughty language is used, so, if you listen to it, listen where you can safely hear naughty language.) Also, I booked a plane ticket to Portland for Bizarro Con. Then I booked another one from San Jose (where the World Fantasy Convention will be held) back home. I get from Portland to San Jose via car with my publisher and a few other Bizarro writers. After World Fantasy, I plan to travel to Big Sur on a bus. | | Monday, July 6th, 2009 | | 3:02 pm |
YEAR TO DATE
So, the year is (over) half over. What have I done? Well, I finished WASHER MOUTH (67,000 words), went right into BARE BONE #11 work (the final issue), after which I started editing for the New Bizarro Author Series, a novella (or novella-sized collection) imprint for first-time bizarro writers. (FYI: In the last two months, I've received 38 pitches and 25 manuscripts. 5 have been accepted/edited.) Also, I must have a novella done for THE MAGAZINE OF BIZARRO FICTION by August 1st ... and then there's THE WALRI PROJECT antho for Afterbirth Books. | | Friday, June 19th, 2009 | | 7:37 pm |

FINAL Bare Bone pre-order (Raw Dog Screaming Press)
The final issue of the BARE BONE anthology series (#11) is now up for pre-order at the Raw Dog Screaming Press website: http://www.rawdogscreaming.com/bb11.htmlIt features fiction by Steve Rasnic Tem, Kris Saknussemm, Paul Finch, Cody Goodfellow, Kurt Newton, Ronald Damien Malfi, Gary McMahon, Gary Fry, Eric Shapiro, Ian Rogers, Jeffrey A. Stadt, Mark Patrick Lynch, Kek-W, Michael Kelly, Mitch Maraude and others. Poets include Michael Arnzen, Kendall Evans, Cameron Pierce, Forrest Armstrong, K.S. Hardy and Joel Curtis. I think the cover (artist = Carlton Mellick III) turned out very nice as well... | | Tuesday, April 14th, 2009 | | 3:07 am |
DRAGONS WITH CANCER
DRAGONS WITH CANCER, an e-anthology edited by Bradley Sands and Mike Young, is now on-line. Each author has two featured tales, one realistic and the other unrealistic. My two short pieces: MULTIPLE MORNINGS and A LOATHSOME JOB. Other contributors = Blake Butler, Ray Fracalossy, Avital Gad Cykman, Sam Pink, Gina Ranalli, Sean Kilpatrick, Rhys Hughes, Ofelia Hunt, and Anderson Prunty. Find it here: http://www.absurdistjournal.com/downloads.htmI have other news, too ... will report on it in a few days... | | Sunday, March 15th, 2009 | | 4:16 pm |
Quote + name for WASHER BOOK
Playing around on-line, I found a blog that quoted from my book, THE GREATEST FUCKING MOMENT IN SPORTS. It made me feel good. Here's the quote in question; it's the President speaking: "Fellow nations, please don't look down on Americans or America as a whole; you can't expect us not to break down, to break down and cry, if not scream and rend things, breaking the intact and annihilating the already broken; nor can we be expected not to put things in our mouths or other cavities that were never intended for such ingress, or not to run naked and screaming through the dark and sticky passageways of a night that will never end." -from The Greatest Fucking Moment in Sports by Kevin L. Donihe published in The Bizarro Starter Kit. Also, I think THE WASHER BOOK has a name now, and it's WASHER MOUTH: THE MAN WHO WAS A WASHING MACHINE. | | Thursday, February 12th, 2009 | | 3:47 pm |
Washer Book = Done
I called it at 3:24 PM. Of course, the publisher might want me to add or subtract a few things, and I'll have to go over the proof ... but there will be no other drafts, so yeah, it's done: May 31, 2008 - Feb. 12, 2009. | | Friday, January 30th, 2009 | | 4:30 pm |
WASHER BOOK = almost in bag
I've almost got the WASHER BOOK edits done. (Key word: "almost".) Been working on this book since May 31 ... feels like forever, but forever will be over soon (give or take a week). | | Thursday, December 25th, 2008 | | 11:43 pm |
hoka-meoka (or, it happened again)
It seems to happen every year. I drink a little too much of the communal egg nog and wake up in another state -- a different one each time -- with no memory of the night before but with exactly $45 and Greyhound ticket home, which I never recall purchasing. I get back home -- often times weeks, or months, later -- to find that everyone resents me for doing this thing I can't for the life of me recall doing, but which I must have done, because everyone says I've done it. Some even tell me they wished I'd stayed gone, that they liked it better when everyone thought I was dead. Sometimes the police gets involved... | | Friday, December 19th, 2008 | | 4:04 pm |
I'm back?
Seems I've been gone for a while. Back now. (I think.) Did the Bizarro Convention in Portland, OR. Also went to Seattle, Wenatchee, and up Lake Chelan in WA. Some pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/25697513@N08/ (non-con part of the trip) http://s490.photobucket.com/albums/rr267/kldonihe/ (mostly con part of the trip, but no pictures from the ballroom) To reach Portland, I flew in an airplane for the first time. (I've been to 40 states and Canada and Mexico, but always by bus, train, or some combination of the two. An airplane ticket to Portland, however, was cheaper than a Greyhound ticket. Very weird.) At any rate, I found take-off to be exhilarating. I want to take-off every day now. >taking-off< Oh yeah ... I finished THE WASHER BOOK (for the most part). THE WALRI PROJECT is almost in the bag, too. More soon... | | Friday, October 3rd, 2008 | | 2:38 pm |
