JR is the shit, and I'm glad he took care of that since I tend to get drunk at the worst times (like the night before publication, every month) and then am too hungover to do the job properly.

Ryan's column will go live a week from today and have a preview up in the forthcoming days!!

And, yeah, check out Richard's story (fuck, I love it) and Jess's review of STIA.

I checked with the good folks running this and they said that you don't have to be local to submit.  They've already gotten films from Norway.  :)

My story 'Rain Gods' will be published by Black Treacle magazine in their inaugural issue, coming Feb 12. An interesting, bittersweet feeling: Rain Gods was the first short story I ever wrote, and it means a lot to me. Ah callow youth, so quickly gone.

Solarcide is happy to announce that our Story of The Month for February is now live!

Our feature is a brand new and exclusive short from bizarro author Bradley Sands, author of such novels as Rico Slade Will Fucking Kill You, Sorry I Ruined Your Orgy, and his latest, TV Snorted My Brain.

“The Dominator” is the name of his story at Solarcide—a hilarious short about Colt Dixon and his dealings with Russian bathhouses.

You can check it out here.
