Happy Bday DC’s!
So it’s the fifth anniversary of Dennis Cooper’s blog, and if you’ve never checked in with the community there, you’re doing yourself a disservice. DC’s got me my first contact with an editor, and my first contact with Rebel Satori Press, who are going to publish Backwoods. I owe them a great deal, but besides that it’s just a fascinating place where I’ve been exposed to a number of strange and wonderful things.
I gave the blog a birthday gift which was posted yesterday (under my alias “bacteriaburger”), you can check it out here.

I can’t walk two steps from my toilet without hearing about this goddamn movie which I will not name. When all I can think of is that it’s a) going to suck and b) going to be disgusting and furthermore:
…the conceit is as figuratively a bunch of crap as it is literally. Heiter’s plan is for his three-person creation to share a digestive system, but merely attaching people and leaving their intestines intact does not accomplish this. The head eats, digests and shits into the middle’s mouth which goes through her digestive system and passes to the next only to go through her digestive system. Oh yeah, and if you only eat shit, you die really quick.
NO SHIT

The other day the folks at The Kickstarter Blog decided to highlight one of my updates. Cool!

The Rawness of Truth
I watch this movie sometimes to remind myself of how glad I am not to be in college anymore.
Gothic Romance Paperbacks
Almost without fail, the paperbacks showed a single woman, seemingly lost or terrified, wandering or fleeing within the dark wilderness, often with a foreboding castle behind her. And always in that castle, tiny and dreamy and golden: a single, secretive lighted window.

3 CommentsThe Doghouse
I’ve got a story in this month’s issue of Handjobs magazine: “The Doghouse.”
In a jealous fit, Mom tossed Dad out of the house and would have a fit if his son found out where he was. But son can’t stay away from Dad and finds him holed up in a motel room. Dad is thrilled to see his boy and as they chat, their conversation turns to women, being horny, and at one point Dad confesses with a smirk, “I’ve always been dying to know what it feels like, bein’ on the other end of things, so to speak.”
