While I usually wear a suit, I do occasionally don a hoodie and t-shirt. (Sometimes, when I’m feeling utterly savage, I’ll even leave the house without a hat. But don’t tell anyone.)
Anyway, long time Grumpy friends or associates or whatever you call people who link to you and said nice things back when you were doing that lame-ass rent-a-blog thing, Analog Medium have just put out a line of clothes. I like the clothes.
I like the blog too. It’s like a zombie movie, pop-culture geek encyclopedia. Think Boing-Boing with a lot more “fuck you” thrown into the mix.
Look at and buy the clothes here.

Colleagues is a good word, I think. Thanks for the links
Glad you like the gear. I’m wearing the hoodie you’ve got a picture of. Nice summary of AM, too. I’ve never been able to articulate it so well.
And I must ask, where can we read some of your ultraviolence?

P.S. The ultraviolent sci-fi sounds good too.

The gear is great.
My UV has never been published and, as I don’t write many short stories, it’s mainly in novel form. So if you ever do get to read any of it, you’ll get to read a lot of it.
You can read an SF story of mine as a PDF – here:
The Transmigration of Judas Iscariot:

And I have a story in one of their earlier issues but I have to get ready for work and can’t be bothered to look for it right now.

Sweet. If you get a chance, I’d love the link to the other issue, too. I’m going to download this one and read on my break. I need a break from the book I’m reading.
Have you ever tried to publish any novels?

Here’s the other one:

I’m also going to be in an anthology sometime towards the end of this year. I think. It’s taking ages to come out. I’ll have a post about it when it finally shows up.
As for trying to publish novels, have tried, am trying, will keep trying. Been rejected with everything ranging from form letters to phone calls but a house is giving me a nibble right now. We’ll see.
I’m also scripting my first comic book with a friend of mine. So yeah – busy-busy-busy.
