Hey Jeremy

Thanks for the contact. If you'd like to send any of your books for review in Australia, I am a staff writer for Black: Australia's Dark Culture magazine and the mag gets nationwide distribution in this country. I recommend it for a bit of extra review coverage down here where there are many fans of horror and dark literature.

If sending review copies, send directly to attention: Angela Challis, Editor
Brimstone Press
PO Box 4
Woodvale WA 6026

and tell 'em I sent you.

Cheers
Leigh Blackmore

Hi not a horror fan so I may not be your ideal reader. Check my profile and my notes of a dreamer blog to see what I read and what I say about the books I do read. If you are still interested then I would be a happy to review it.

Jeremy -

I'd love to help you out somehow. I haven't read the book, and have some review books I need to before I could but I am always willing to review books on my journal, but I could also interview you for the footnote (thefootnote.net) if you want. I have Tim Pratt to interview first but that might get some word out?

Past that I dunno, got any ideas sir?

Hi Jer, just read The Camp and it was great. Real nasty stuff, but a nice vein of dark humour too. I'm gonna keep a look out for your novel and read the rest of your shorts when I get the chance.

Jeremy,

Nice of you to drop by! The God of Small Things got me interested in reading Asian lit -- and I'm southeast Asian, so it's funny that I had to be inspired to read Asian lit more.

I'm hesitating on naming an ultimate favorite right now, but Life of Pi, Kitchen Confidential and Kavalier and Clay would come close. :)

Hi Jeremy-

I honestly don't have a favorite novel(s). There are so many I enjoy that I couldn't even pick a couple.

As for Buffy season 8, I like it so far. It almost makes up for the series being over. It's the first comic I ever read actually. :)

Ha! What a question...the answer could take a lifetime. :) My favorite novel of all time is The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde because of the gritty way that it exposes the human condition. Kurt Vonnegut is also very good at this. As a whole I tend to gravitate toward books of dystopia such as 1984 by George Orwell and The Giver by Lois Lowry. Although I consider myself to be happy and upbeat I have a love for the dark writings of Poe, Anne Rice, and the twisted life experiences of Hunter S. Thompson. I devour crazy plays like "The Skin of Our Teeth" by Thorton Wilder. I have also been heavily drawn to the fantastical humor of Douglas Adams and Roald Dahl. The last skimming of the iceberg I will mention is my obsession with comics and graphic novels: Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, Frank Miller, Bill Willingham, to name a few... (Maybe this has something to do with the fact that my uncle owns a comic book store?) Books have always transported me into other worlds with different rules and perhaps that is why I enjoy reading as much as I do. :) Do you have any recommendations? I would love to hear your answer to the question of favorites.

Alliteration is always appropriate,

Laura :)

Jeremy:

re: your inquiry about favorite novels

Favorites are notoriously difficult to pin down, as most of us are quite fickle, and "favorite" is ill-defined in any case. However, the novel that had the greatest emotional impact on me at the time I read it (long ago, and far away) was undoubtedly Kristin Lavransdatter, but Sigrid Undset.

Jeremy,

Thanks for your friendship. There will be an opportunity next week for you to understand what this weird English guy that keeps contacting you is writing about. Next week you may wish to listen in on the UK based rock station KERRANG RADIO on Wednesday 5th December at 2230 (UK time). I will be interviewed on that station and I will be presenting my theory - which I call "Cheating The Ferryman". The intention is that I will do the interview on the 5th then at a date and time to be agreed in January I will return and there will be a full, open phone-in available to those who wish to ask me questions or join in the debate. This will last three hours or so. The initial interview can be listened to online at www.kerrangradio.co.uk I am hopeful that this will be a big debate. Over 20,000 people across the world - from Chile to China - have now read the book and I wish as many as possible to be aware of this event. It would be great if you could listen in. Indeed we could try and name-check this excellent site. Please feel free to let anybody else that you may think may be interested know about this.

Best Wishes

Tony

Hi Jeremy,

It's always nice to find someone who has a lot of the same books as I have!

One favorite? That's much too hard a question, as my favorite changes acoording to my mood. Some books that I tend to re-read regularly follow.

Song of Solomon by Morrison
Love in the Time of Cholera by Garcia Marquez
The White Boy Shuffle by Beatty
Territory by Bull
Bottomfeeder by Fingerman
and anything written by Octavia Butler

I have a lot of favorites. If you're looking to get a handle on what I really like to read it might be more helpful to check my favorite authors list on my profile. A lot of those folks are on my "automatic buy" list.

Thanks for asking. I am interested to read your work now.

publicado por saltypepper às 11:16 am (EST) em Nov 25, 2007

Complicated question, depending heavily upon genre.

In no particular order, then:

The Demon's Sermon on the Martial Arts, Issai Chozanshi
The Unfettered Mind, Takuan Soho (a translation of three letters by him)
Liber Aleph, Aleister Crowley
Sha'are Orah, Joseph Gikatilla,
A number of books by David Edits (pre-Athalus)
I'm enjoying Jim Butcher these days as well
The Adept series by Katherine Kurtz and Deborah Turner Harris

Oh, really, the list goes on and on I guess.

publicado por nuadu às 8:38 pm (EST) em Nov 24, 2007

Jeremy,

1. I'm impressed that you actually browse people's books. I guess books are truly important to you. Bravo!

2. Interestingly, I don't read much novels, so after I picked up Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code (and subsequently finished it within a day) I bought every Dan Brown's books and read them all.

3. My feeling re: Dan Brown is that he is a very ADD-friendly writer. He writes his books based on a tweaked algorithm for writing, so you might find them a bit formulaic, but it does grow on you.

4. Angel & Demons is the prequel to Da Vinci Code, but I don't recommend it, and he is clearly still tweaking his writing formula.

5. I recommend Deception Point, which is a mix of secrets, politics, and global policy. A very fun read. As with all novels, I recommend getting a hard cover--but that's just me :)

Glad to be a new friend!

Cheers,
See-ming

publicado por seeminglee às 1:34 pm (EST) em Nov 24, 2007

Sati by Christopher Pike is my favorite book of all time. It's not in print any longer, which is a shame. If you enjoy short stories, Nine Tomorrows by Asimov is wonderful, but again, out of print. *laughs* Story of my life.

There are a lot of wonderful books in print, but it seems like my favorites never are.

Hi Jeremy,
Thanks very much for the invite. I just read Parsnip the artist. I like your style, simple and direct. You know how to tell a story. I'll read more of your works. But how you can list among your favorite authors Brett Easton Ellis AND C.S. Lewis just beats me.

publicado por Jean-Louis às 4:36 am (EST) em Nov 23, 2007

Well, I've read the Parsnip and Metal stories which you recommended. Though I can't say I could do a steady diet of that tone of story, I will say they read well and kept me interested and left me thoughtful. Thank you, and I hope you have a great time on LT after your harsh introduction. :)

Just finished reading Camp. Wow! Absolutely amazing. Can't wait to read more.
By the way, have you read any Christopher Moore (Lamb, Stupidest Angel, Dirty Job)? He's one of the few authors out there who can make me guffaw. He fills his books with quirky characters and crazy circumstances. I don't know if you like that sort of thing, but I highly recommend him for days when you feel like absorbing good vibes.

Hey there. We just became friends and have only one book in common. Also, you're a cute straight boy and I'm an old (43) gay guy. But that's nothing. The most disturbing thing to me is that you enjoy sci-fi but don't have Gibson listed as a favorite author. Have you read Idoru or Mona Lisa Overdrive? If not, then you should.

Keep in touch. Love the B&W.

Why you would choose a middle-aged lady with a quietly warped sense of humor, I'm not sure I understand, but I'm flattered. I think. I will definately read a short story or two as soon as I can. The novel will have to wait until this summer - my life is in hyperdrive until that time. Mary Lou
