The Outsider Manifesto Part 2- Why Outsider Publishing
Another Indy publisher, why should we care? While dismissive and kinda arseface thing to say it is a valid question. In today’s flooded market you do need a reason for people to care and we get that. We feel that if we can not offer something unique then we shouldn’t be offering anything. So then the question becomes what do we offer that others do not…. That is somehow both an easy question to answer and an incredibly complex one to explain. The first thing that we need to establish is that all creators deserve the outlet to get themselves seen. This is one of the founding principles we set our foundation upon. Not every creator…

A Blog in which I give The Outsider Manifesto
Part 1 Rules to the Game 1. Readers are our family. We aren’t creating readers we are creating a community. We will treat them right; without them we are just shouting at the moon by ourselves. 2. We respect out family above all else. Again, we need them more than they need us, there will be other books for them, we might not get more readers without them . 3. Creators are to have freedom to tell whatever story they want, no subject shall be off limits, only good taste and common sense shall limit what we publish. 4. We DO NOT TOLERATE anything hateful. We will NOT publish anything…

A Blog About Friday the 13th in September
Friday the 13th in September is one of life’s great pleasures. Its the first month of fall(depending on the part of the country you are in it might be a month away yet or you might be a month into it, Im playing with averages, and also talking about my country of origin and am aware its different…you know what let me just move on. My point is its near the start of Fall/Autumn and thats spooky season in my part of the woods. But its also close enough to tthe end of summer where a film about summer camp will still hit and give you warm summer hang out…

Hi guys and let me officially welcome you to Outsider Publishing Company. We started out as a brother and sister that had a dream of writing books and comics and 30 years or so later here we are, finally making our dreams come true. It not the route we thought it would be. We thought we would be writing comics first and books second, but it looks like we are doing it in reverse. We have our first Anthology coming out later this year (release date will be announce soonish) but the point of this point is share that we have a cover! I kind of want to walk you…

A Blog In which I Write I Write A Bunch of Times
I write stuff that pisses people off. It’s not something I’m ashamed of, it’s not something I’m proud of either, its just part of the job description. A writer writes in order to get a reaction. Sometimes we are trying to get you to laugh, sometimes we are trying to get you to cry, sometimes we want you to think and sometimes, not often but sometimes our intent is actually to piss you off. The more visceral your reaction, whatever it is the better I’ve done my job. I write things that make people Laugh Comedy is something I’ve always been rather adept at. Not that I’m capable of a…

A Blog Were I Admit My Biggest Fear
When I tell people I’m a writer the conversation goes something like this: “What do you write?””Porn…but just the Dialogue””Really?””No…I write stories, short, novels, film scripts, comics, I just write. After a quick who is on first routine about what I write until I find out that they are really asking about genre not medium, I tell them I write splatter pop. After explaining that it’s a horror style that is heavily influenced by pop culture, they always follow it up by asking since I’m a horror writer, “what scares me?” The trick to that question is I can not answer it, but only because the list is way to…

Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors stands out as one of the finest examples of classic horror cinema, a true gem in the Elm Street franchise and a film…

A Blog in Which I Compare Carpenter’s Halloween with Mac&Cheese
I’ve been a fan of horror media my entire life. One of my earliest clear memories is going to see Child’s Play in the theater with two of my friends when I was 8 years old. It was a common occurrence at my place growing up to have sleep overs where we would get a few kids and stay up marathoning Friday the 13th or Nightmare on Elm Street before I turned 12. I can say with little doubt more kids saw their first horror flick at my house when we were kids than the average theater can claim(massive exaggeration but sounds cool right?) I began reading Stephen King by…
