More Hagridden pix! This edition features coffee and burgers and bells and cats — and the first-ever photo of the Hagridden e-book!: FYI: I’ll be seeing my friend Bri in a couple of weeks, when I visit her creative writing classes and give a reading at Ivy Tech Community College. Hope to see you all there! PS: TrevorContinue reading “People eating and drinking and snuggling with cats while reading Hagridden”

New publication
This summer, one of my primary writing projects has been composing new short stories related to my Civil War novel, Hagridden. Each story involves a minor character or two from the novel, people who have some important moments in the book but are definitely supporting characters to the main narrative; in these stories, those folksContinue reading “New publication”
Portland release party for Hagridden
Today’s the day, gang! I’ve only been back in my home city of Portland for a few days, but it’s been enough to rest up from my big Southern book tour, and now it’s PDX’s turn for a Hagridden party! And folks, this one’s gonna be a doozy. We’re at the Independent Publishing Resource Center, one ofContinue reading “Portland release party for Hagridden”
There she blows! A head like a billy goat! It is the Jersey Devil!
Over at Jersey Devil Press, we’re famously fond of dick jokes. So of course I’ve been making Moby Dick jokes all day. Because the September Jersey Devil Press is a whale of an issue! (Groan all you want — there’s more where that came from.) The issue itself is a bit of a guppy, all flashContinue reading “There she blows! A head like a billy goat! It is the Jersey Devil!”

Places to publish, literature to read
I don’t know if it’s just Jung’s collective unconscious or if we’re all slaves to social media, but I’ve noticed a trend lately in people posting lists of publishers. Like the “7 Chapbook Publishers” on Authors Publish, which includes the always-excellent Black Lawrence Press, my pal Maragret Bashaar’s Hyacinth Girl Press, and (best of all!)Continue reading “Places to publish, literature to read”
The correct way to pre-order a novel
Now that we’re less than a month away from the official release date for Hagridden, I’ve started getting questions about how to pre-order the book. Eventually, there will be a variety of ways to call shotgun on your copy of the novel, and when they’re available, you’ll find those at the novel’s website, HagriddenBook.com. ButContinue reading “The correct way to pre-order a novel”
Borrowed Time, by Chad A. Clark
One of the things that fascinates me about Facebook is that, hiding behind all the selfies and memes and foodporn and political rants and vaguebook complaints, there is this weird but delightful secret world of writers groups. Seriously, they’re everywhere, and somehow, I’ve managed to become involved with fifteen of them. This is awesome. SomeContinue reading “Borrowed Time, by Chad A. Clark”
Hagridden has a cover!
It’s here, gang! Hagridden has a cover! I love everything about this, including the stuff you can’t see, by which I mean the conversations between me and the publisher as we looked at drafts of this. But my favorite bit: the clean font + distressed look = exactly the right combination of the book’s literary seriousnessContinue reading “Hagridden has a cover!”
