Johnny Butane and the excellent website www.dreadcentral.com has just posted a podcast of me reading from a particularly dark scene from Bloodstone, as part of their “Dreadtime Stories” series. Check it out, it’s a lot of fun!

Bloodstone is now officially out in paperback. To celebrate, I went to my local Barnes and Noble in Chestnut Hill and found 8 copies on the new release shelves! Not buried in the back, or spine out under my name, but right up front and center. Take a look at this photo:

My trip to Borders was not quite so exciting. Two copies, shelved under my name. Tough for anyone to discover those by accident. So I pulled them out and asked the manager if I could sign them, and he said absolutely. They’re now up front with “autographed copy” stickers on them.

I like that much better.

If anyone else sees copies in their local stores, drop a comment here and let me know (if you don’t see a little window for comments, click here. Better yet, snap a photo and email it to me at nate@natekenyon.com, and I’ll put it right up here on the site. Sort of a “Where’s Waldo” for horror fiction. Put yourself in the photo if you like, and if you want me to post your name, let me know that too.

As always, thanks for your support!

Leisure has posted an essay I wrote on how Bloodstone began, and my writing process. Check it out here:
