It’s official. Negotiations have been negotiated. Signatures have been signed. Bells have been sleighed. I Didn’t Mean to Be Kevin will be published in late 2011 by Black Coffee Press. I’ll keep this announcement short and tidy; there is plenty of time for me to drone on about how proud I am of this book. For now, just make sure your nutting pants are clean.
Perhaps not coincidentally, I do drink my coffee black.
Black Coffee Press has a quite a list of books lined up for 2011-12. Some I am especially looking forward to are:
A Shiny, Unused Heart by J.A. Tyler (2011)
This guy is everywhere. J.A. Tyler is one of those names that materializes on every lit site, from the smallish to the giantish. Sometimes I theorize these appearances are simply to make me feel inadequate. Well done, sir.
Code for Failure by Ryan W. Bradley (2012)
Again, a writer whose name appears everywhere. I am not as familiar with Mr. Bradley’s work as I am with the other two fellows on my list, but based on what I do know, Code for Failure is not code for failure (ha, see what I did there).
When You Are Sleeping I Will Evolve Into A Bird by Nathan Tyree (2012)
Nathan Tyree and I put together a grand collection of stores called Oprah Read This >> Oprah, Read This, featuring too many fabulous writers to list here. Go to the site, read the stories, and anticipate Tyree’s Black Coffee Press book.

Congratulations. I’ve never had coffee in my life but I will break my cherry in late 2011 for the good book Caleb Ross.
