These stories are more than 'horror' I imagine a great many ppeople are missing out because they may not read them as such. The horror in the truth of humanity's cruelty is so much more difficult to face for many; so they preferr to look the other way. Monsters of imagination are more tolerable to many than reality.

Better... 480 Sun April 17 2011 - 15:41:24 Fullname: Ketchum Email: Comments: Back's a bit begger but still dodgy, dammit -- GAIL -- did you make it through PORTNOY? You might try WHEN SHE WAS GOOD, it's a bit more straightforward narrative. Hope you enjoy MASKS. The con you mean is RUE MORGUE. Don't know whether I'll be there or not this year. Keep an eye on my appearances page. MEGAN -- I've adapted THE PASSENGER -- Lucky McKee has an option on this, OFFSPRING (which got changed a lot in the shooting...hmmmmm...) LADIES' NIGHT, which I co-wrote with Stuart Gordon, and of course Lucky and I did THE WOMAN as both script and novel. I'm currently messing around with WEED SPECIES. BOB -- yeah, WINTER'S BONE's a good one. A lot on its mind...best to all, D 481 Fri April 15 2011 - 10:14:59 Fullname: Bob Hinton Email: peteboiler@hotmail.com Comments: Sucks about your back, Jack. You need anything, you let me know. I did see Winter's Bone and was blown away by the guy who played Teardrop. Amazing performance. Very DARK film. Even found it creepy. But a very surprising, emotional film that I highly recommend as well. Get better soon! 482 Fri April 15 2011 - 06:14:35 Fullname: Ketchum Email: Comments: I'll weigh in on this Roth etc. subject soon but my back's been out bigime so that means I've watched a few movies lying on my back. Catch WINTER'S BONE and THE ATTACK ON DARFUR for certian. More when I can sit longer...best, D 483 Wed April 13 2011 - 23:08:16 Fullname: Gail Gowland Email: Comments: Hi Mr Ketchum, Just received Masks and guess what ? it is signed by BOTH you and Lee !!!! weee !! I am estatic about that, I do not own anything signed by you ! I am also awaiting THE WOMAN as I can get that at my crappy book store - I also requently look at your dates for apparences, I do not see anything for Toronto Canada, I think there is a show here in the summer which you came to 2 yrs ago - as they only invite you every couple of years, hope you are coming this year I would make it a point to see yo 484 Tue April 12 2011 - 03:45:29 Fullname: Megan Email: Comments: April is Script Frenzy, and I'm participating! I thought briefly about adapting my NaNo'10 novel for the screen, but decided against it. Did you ever try adapting your own novel for screen or graphic novel? 485 Thu April 07 2011 - 01:03:02 Fullname: john Email: Comments: You gotta stick with it until the end for the pay off. I wouldn't say I'm advanced, it's about being open to different styles of fiction, maybe. I don't know. Just give it a try, try and make it through. :) 486 Wed April 06 2011 - 22:46:45 Fullname: Gail Gowland Email: Comments: John, Glad you enjoyed portnay's complaint - you are a more advanced human being than me , and I do not mean that sarcastically - I really just dont know where I'm at with this, ready to put it away I understand he is talking about his life to a doctor but sheesh ! I just don't get it , I think my masks book by ketchum and lee has just come in the mail whooo hoo!! 487 Wed April 06 2011 - 00:42:17 Fullname: John Email: Comments: "Portnoy's Complaint" is brilliant... I just finished re-reading "The Painted Bird" by Jerzy Kosiński. Man, I forgot how great that book is. Fantastic, in that tragic and brutal sort of way. 488 Tue April 05 2011 - 22:53:15 Fullname: Gail Gowland Email: Comments: netflix has just come to Canada, now that the movie is out maybe worth getting just for that ! I think that I may order sleep disorders on it's own - I am reading at the moment portnay's complaint by Philip Roth - I don't know what the heck I'm reading, he is all over the place- It has it's funny parts, but - It's a bit slow for my liking, picked it up after the comments here on the author- Loved this wicked world - I have all your movies that were made into films 489 Tue April 05 2011 - 17:04:53 Fullname: Ketchum Email: Comments: ...and you can now watch OFFSPRING via Netflix Instant (streaming)... 490 Tue April 05 2011 - 15:29:41 Fullname: Ketchum Email: Comments: Crossroads have now published SLEEP DISORDER, the book of stories I did with Edward Lee, as an e-book. Here's the link -- http://tinyurl.com/4yvkxzo Enjoy! - D 491 Sun April 03 2011 - 14:54:20 Fullname: John Email: nonoman@msn.com Comments: I could but it would have been sort of maybe considered spammy. I wanted to send you some issues of SHOCK TOTEM...as I wanted to try set up an interview with you in the future but wanted you to see what you'd be getting into, and make sure you'd be into it. I also wanted youto know I'm stoked to probably meet you at NECON this summer, it'll be my first convetion and I think with you and Skipp in attendance, the coolest thing I've ever been to. :) 492 Sun April 03 2011 - 14:47:07 Fullname: Ketchum Email: Comments: Recommendation -- T.C.Boyle's THE WOMEN, a novel about Frank Lloyd Wright and...his women. Powerful, funny stuff in electric prose...REDMAN -- can't say for sure about Rock 'n Shock, it's too early, but they treat me well there so the chances are that yes, I'll be going. TIM -- JOHN's right. Keep walking. An actor friend of mine once told me, if you're any good and you hang in there, sooner or later you're going to get noticed. JOHN -- not a question you can ask me here? Be well, everybody. -- D 493 Sat April 02 2011 - 00:40:54 Fullname: John Email: nonoman@msn.com Comments: Hello everyone...I hope this finds all well and swell. Tim, as a fellow writer and an editor (of sorts), rejection makes the heart grow fonder and the writing stronger! I write for myself, for every piece I concoct that may have some slight chance at selling, I bet I have a dozen that have a snowflakes chance in hell, but I love 'em all. Keep writing...we entertain the world. And Mr. Ketchum, if you're so inclined could you drop me an email sometime. I'm not going to stalk you, I assure you, I just have a question to ask. Have a great weekend all!! Be safe and happy! 494 Fri April 01 2011 - 02:22:01 Fullname: Tim J. Finn Email: timtjf2003@yahoo.com Comments: Jack I finally made it to your website and found all sorts of things (I guess as a writer I really shouldn't say things...that's what my high school English teacher told), including a link to market listings that look promising. Hopefully, by this year's Rock and Shock (yes I'm that Tim the struggling writer) I will have some positive news on my submissions. Since rejections are a step in a writer's development, I'm walking a hundred miles this year. 495 Tue March 29 2011 - 22:21:15 Fullname: Gail Gowland Email: Comments: Thank you Jack for the insight to the book masks. I am going to see if I can find out anything else as it's origin was from sleep disorders - ouch was not what I wanted to hear . Any thing by yourself Im sure it good,so I will not be disappointed - thank you as always for your time 496 Tue March 29 2011 - 14:15:39 Fullname: Redman Email: grandmastaredman@yahoo.com Comments: Any plans this year to attend Rock & Shock or Anthology Con? http://anthocon.com/ 497 Tue March 29 2011 - 09:54:28 Fullname: paul-werner heinrichs Email: paulheinrichs@kabelmail.de Comments: hallo,-deine romane sind einfach ...klasse...liebe grüsse aus germany..paul 498 Mon March 28 2011 - 21:11:14 Fullname: Ketchum Email: Comments: ...in just a few years. Reads like a no-way-I-can-put-this-down novel. Pounce! -- Best, D. 499 Mon March 28 2011 - 21:09:30 Fullname: Ketchum Email: Comments: JIMBO -- many thanks...good to know that one got under your skin. GAIL -- ouch! I hope you didn't pay TOO much for it. It's a single, though longish, story by me and Lee, which was collected in SLEEP DISORDER. Want to bring a book to your attention -- Adam Hochschild's KING LEOPOLD'S GHOST. It's a nonfiction account of the first great human rights movement in history, against Leopold of Belgium's colony in Africa during the late 1800"s, which slashed the area's population by ten million souls...(more) 500 Sun March 27 2011 - 21:02:20 Fullname: Gail Gowland Email: Comments: Hi everyone - I just bought " MASKS " by ketchum and ed lee, there was no discription of what the book contains and I bought it on a whim as to the authors - does anyone know what this book is about ? is it just short stories ? thanks for the help << 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 >>
