See For Yourself...

I will say this much I can show you what's now back online; it was a year ago since I was thrown off Lulu.com but not before I gave them a nice parting shot. Go hang on pinterest if you want what I got back online; as I am working on getting The Condensed Volumes as that might be a good candidate as an Outskirts Books release. I am happy to say I do have a new solo release out there and waiting a year plus for the rest of my ensemble project; well I know one thing it's worth the wait when everyone is in play and in place.
     I wish Blogspot does have a feature where you can do a cut tag like wordpress, tumblr.com or InsaneJournal though I am happy to say I got my new collection ready to go and got my second collection re-issued. Now I hope this one gets a second life on CreateSpace.com with a new story in that collection An Urban Gothic Tale which didn't seem too out of place on that one -- though there are stories in there that have the strong language to keep the faithful coming back for more. The fourth collection as I am going to get the third collection back online shortly as I found all graphics I used originally to create this book and one aspect that really had me thinking how to do the introduction to play up the existence of Collectives In A Forsaken Metascape. If you want the second collection you could go here; Metascape is not recommended for children under 17 because it's very dark and nasty. I will promise this with my readers they are not going to be paying for air when it comes to my work. They will see a physical book either of my own work or anthologies I edit though with Karen Koehler you are paying for air.
     Same case with J. T. because she shelled out a half grand or $800 to publish her book in 2008. You're getting ripped off and the tools I have I can merge pdfs and all that to allow me to work with who I work with now. After returning to the fold; I wish those tools were in play in 2007 or 2008. Persona is a plaything to them as I will go back to what Koehler pulled on Lulu.com as Robert L. Baupder plagiarized Stygian Dealer. She's lying for him too as Brian Keene also did. When it comes to my work; your are not buying air. I have the freebies and my print exclusive; don't judge my print exclusives on my online reads or blogs because it's a different style all together. With Pathogen on his night club events you're paying for air dude. So tell me what would you rather have -- a museum that comes to your home for $8 more than what you're paying to get into Matt's event or something you can carry with you wherever you go that's a conversation piece at one of his events.
     That would be the very real DJ Pathogen from the story Media Darling musical plagiarist. He makes a mockery of artists as Matt (Caustic) apologized to me because of the damage he caused in 2007 and been plagiarized because of the scandal that unfolded after this. What Brian Keene and Karen Koehler had done by denying I was plagiarized is on par to denying The Holocaust occured. This is not an online slapfight when you plagiarize someone that's an invitation to a brawl where the plagiarist will come away missing a few limbs. Media Darling was born out of the rage that I had when I read about the MySpace.com Mom because Pathogen would had harassed someone into killing themselves as he's a follower of that it-of-a-bitch Chris Korda.

policy posted on fan fiction

I am detailed about fan fiction guidelines of my work and will allow it for Lake Fossil Only with the condition I get to publish it in The Ethereal Gazette. I am doing an anthology of real person horror featuring me as a character but I ask contributors to read Namesake II for the model story to this idea -- I want them to be straight up balls to the wall scary horror. Nothing sexual or slashy oriented -- I don't want to see male male romance, female-female romance, female female erotica, no trans shit either, or male male erotica. That is gross. The memoir is the source material for the fan fiction stories based off me, I want them written in the vein of Richard Matheson and Richard Christian Matheson. Intelligent and surreal is what I am looking for with one story being features on the blog with a page dedicated to the best story overall. I am not looking for anything resembling Andrew Wolter or Poppy Z. Brite. But I want stories to feel not out of place on Mike Philbin's anthologies he published over the years. I want the writers to be creative and have a full range of creativity with the dark subject matter. My trademark style is using real haunted places -- akin to In The Reflection Of A Lens. I am looking for help to format the book to publish it on creatspace.com but I am looking to work with Lulu.com -- my strict guidelines for the magazine are in effect for the anthology and the size I am going for is 260 pages. Think the publications I put out in the past and what I was featured in for examples here -- the suggested reads will be posted on this one blog entry too for those looking for help to get ideas for the stories. I am looking to pitch the anthology to fanfictio.net since I joined there nine years ago to play around with ideas that are unique to me but sneak great deals of originality in there--I got in trouble for being too original for fanfiction.net.
       I want to work with another editor to make this anthology work, something that needs a collaboration between two editors to make it happen. The weirder the stories and more surreal -- the better, I write with a lot of surrealism like Mike Philbin but it is more toned down. I am working on a short story right now that is another sequel and looking to send it off to a paying market. I am trying to convince Jordan Bobe to be the co-editor on this project because it's got some of the traits of Darkened Horizons: Issue 3's closing story. I can hold my own with Gabrielle Faust and Kevin Lucia in that anthology but that one had a lot of egos -- none of the writers involved got along except for Colin who appears in The Ethereal Gazette as the closing writer. I want to do something that has an oil painting for a cover like the namesake 2 has. I have the rules laid out for the masses here -- and want everyone to be on the same page when it comes to this pet project as an anthologist. I want to work with createspace or Lulu.com on this one. I want to publish the book in a 5.5 x 8.5 trade paperback. I want to do this as a print only anthology -- but I want to co-edit a kindle or nook only anthology too with another editor who can operate software on a desktop computer. Laptops are good for writing but when it comes to editing a publication it is hard as hell.
      I know my fans well in the business, they like to kick peoples asses -- they fight, drink beer, smoke cigarettes, pissed off and intelligent. I stole one of Poppy's fans with Library of Bones -- so I am looking for fan fiction based off that short story. It was published on HorrorMasters.com and it was one of my stronger stories I wrote in 2003 -- it got noticed by Nicholas Tillemans. I am looking for that kind of dark but not perverse. If you want to collaborate on the stories with another writer that is fine. I welcome collaborations. I published a collaboration between two brothers and they are billed as The Davis Brothers on the TOC. I published a writing team on The Ethereal Gazette: Issue One. I want to do more with collaboration teams as a publisher. I am trying to do this real person fan fiction anthology as an excise as an editor to train my eye to those who can stay faithful to my visions as a publisher. Tabloid Purposes broadscope was twisted horror and mind-bending Science Fiction but accessible enough to the teenager to shock their parents -- I wanted a cover where the parents will say, "What the fuck are you reading? At least you're reading books and not watching TV all the time." I like weird and surreal -- but nothing too pervers. I am co-writing a story with one of the contributors on the namesake one's reboot. I will be writing the introduction for this anthology where it will pay tribute to Richard Matheson and his influence on the writers in Tabloid Purposes IV and my story in the namesake one. The model for the fan fiction anthology is my story in namesake 2. I want nothing that would fit in the queer horror anthologies that are published out there or the erotica anthologies that are published in the small press. I want inventive not sleazy.
       I noticed that slash writers are little sleazy--and that is why The Fandom Writer seems to piss them off. The story is a swipe at Poppy Z. Brite in 2004 when I first wrote it -- I submitted the story for a contest but the judge was the editor of Queer Fear. My anthologies was the straight writers answer to that trend. I wanted writers who are straight and Christian. I was blessed to worked with Christian writers from the very beginning but I want something that wouldn't be too out of place in a bookshelf along side Frank Peretti or Ted Dekker. I want an illustrator who is talented as A.P. Fuchs illustrating this anthology but helping me design the covers on photoshop because I want to have the cool spine layout. I am thinking of making the anthology available on cafepress.com but they don't have the size I want for the anthology. The thing with working with Creatspace is you need a pdf blender to put the pdf's together into one document. That is what I like about Lulu.com they do that all for me. I just need someone to help me design the wrap around covers to make the anthology seamless. I want it something cool that I can see what people do with me as a character in a story -- but make the story original.
      Tucker in Chimeraworld so Mike gets some attention for his anthologies -- give the books supernatural powers. I want the stories to be genrecletic. That is Mike's term. I want a dark delivery that belongs entirely to the contributor. I am looking to run this through some channels and have working titles going in my head for the anthology. I might enlist the Tabloid Purposes roster to look over the stories with me -- I want to borrow a trait that Kaplan did when he edited Emanations having more than one editor working on a project but one editor calling the shots who stays or who gets cut. I want writers good enough to invade Clive Barker's website like I did 13 years ago. I linked up the short story that did just that when I did a wall post on facebook.com. I am promoting the anthologies I did and appeared in hard on the groups. It is hard to get contributors who are keen to a vision you have for an anthology but when it works it works. I was blessed to work with as many writers as I did over the nine plus years as a publisher -- I have been a publisher almost as long as A.P. Fuchs -- I was lucky to work with him to illustrate Faraday Nelson's short story in The Ethereal Gazette: Issue 12.

Submission Call Is Posted

My Submission Call is posted on InsaneJournal, read the submission guidelines carefully when you want to submit to this anthology this is the make up publication for Issue 14, it will be replacing the original Issue 14, and the original one will be Issue 16 instead so if you want to submit keep sending the stories for that but I am looking for the writer's actual nightmares for the anthology. I am looking for them to be about 2400-5600 words and fill a book about 250 pages that is a Royal trade paperback format. I am working on a manuscript right now for another anthology but looking for submissions to this anthology, if you want to help promote this you can do the google+ link on here and tweet it if you want.

GAME OVER is accepted!

I broke down and let PublishAmerica have this one, I am working on another book based in the world of social media and the hell that could be caused because of it. I am not sure if I would make this story fiction or nonfiction, might be a novella or another short novel. It might be something to think about for this being novel writing month, but I am busy writing The Fandom Writer 2. I am waiting for the official contract and talking to them about what the cover should be. It has to be a scene from the book, and hoping they don't change the content too much. It's one continuous story and that is something I want to keep with the book. I was going to send them the introduction too if they need it because this one commands it.
     The rivalry between The Ethereal Gazette and Kilter had been fictionalized, something that was a therapy to write too. I also got a freebie posted as of Halloween on http://np1976.codexed.com. Halloween had two freebies, and the rant is pointed at Keene and some cyber-bunny boiler who is stalking me on craigslist.org making claims that I dated her and pounded on her door when I had not had dated in a while. I didn't even have a date in 2010 so the person slandered me right there. I expanded the personal ad to 1400 words too, yeah they'd be in for some reading because I am an open book in that sense of the word. I was supposed to have one date in January but it fell through. The story that's akin to The Fandom Writer in every way is going to find it's way to print but I want PublishAmerica to let me design the pdf of the book where I can embed the fonts and everything.
     It was either let PublishAmerica have it or end up seeing it pirated on Panic Press. I didn't know where Cox got a copy of this one but a year's worth of work is about to pay off a little bit. I am just waiting for word from the e-zine I submitted a longer work to about the consideration for the story whether it being accepted or rejected. I submitted JESUS FREAK off to an anthology where a story from Tabloid Purposes 3 is reprinted. With the situation on craigslist there is a book that could be written of this, thinking it would make for a dark read too because it hits too close to home. They hide behind this cushion that's their keyboard.
     The business in the industry is really damned ugly and some people wonder why I chose PublishAmerica for Game Over. I am going to prove that Robert Baupader didn't write the novella. The whole lies that were spread about me of me beating my son, that is the thing that unnerves me to the core. I am a good man but made some mistakes. My honesty unnerves people and the unwillingness to use a screen name in chatrooms would target a lot of people in wanting to hunt me down -- I used my real name from the beginning because I had to claim Spiral Torment. Because of Tim Willard doing the blog where the claim that I stole Lloyd Phillip Campbell's identity, Lloyd Phillip Campbell doesn't have a social security number or birth papers because I created the pen name. He doesn't write homo themed poetry using my titles either -- example the troll blog created on wordpress.com. So my conclusion there is that one of the people who created the domains actually swiped the pen name. Lifted him to quote one of their plagiarisms. I had to out the fact that I was Lloyd before I really had a chance to write an opus as him.

Any submissions sent to me

Will be looked at for the magazine when the computer gets home from repair -- it is a huge $375 bill to have this fixed. I will be getting the rest of the money for the repair job on December 3rd then it will be my post office box paid up. I apologize for those who are waiting for the issue to come out -- it will be all worth the wait. I sent the namesake anthology off to Primo Magazine and sure that would piss off the SomethingAwful.com set because they are showing their facist nature right now. I am trying to talk to a friend to type up the entries I am handwriting in a composition book and giving her a rare edition of Tabloid Purposes IV as compensation for her work.
    I am in the status of using public computers so I am using this to update my blog to people to see the magazine is still alive, but just waiting for the computer to be completely operational before I do anything there. I am setting up a special e-mail address for a project I am putting together the moment the computer is fixed and this will be for people to send submissions for an anthology I am doing that follows up the namesake project. I am getting things for the trip and will be getting my train ticket next month -- but I am taking donations for the computer to be completely paid up by next month so I can get the late issue ready to go. I am e-mailing people who are submitting for the issue so I am letting them know I am looking at the submissions the moment the computer is fixed.
     I am looking to have everything ready to go before I leave for Richmond in terms of the magazine. There will be video of me done by the museum speaking at the Poe Shrine. I am looking forward to the trip to speak that museum and the line up will be straggling in throughout the year to sign the book for the curator so the curator will have a line up signed book. I will be chatting with possible writers on the namesake project via facebook when I get to a computer to update the blog or check my messages on there. I am cleaning out my gmail inbox as I speak and looking through the hatemail. I got my copy of Dirty Black Winter as it is corrected so that means the book is available on Amazon.com soon and one of the stories in the book is a free preview. The person who is doing the libelous tags of the book will be kicked off lulu.com when I report the tags to the staff of the site because they did a good job cleaning house on this sort of thing. The person who did those tags didn't read the second story about me chosing to sleep on a park bench in Baltimore than in bed with a faggot male.

anthology Emanations is out

I am working on some new material for a single entry journal that will be online longhand but in the meantime check out Emanations because I fire back at the ones who went around bullying me. This is a response to Encyclopedia Dramatica and Fandom Wank in one fair swoop. This anthology will feature a story called Media Darling and that story is one of my most controversial -- Carter had to filter some things out of it namely the referrence to WGN and The Weather Channel. The longhand entries that will be typed up will go with Media Darling in terms of the back story. I just want to show people that there are many out there who get cyberbullied -- not many have the courage to fight back. This is fighting back from beyond the grave.
     I read the edits to Media Darling and seems like it became just as fun to read as when I have the original version. The original versions are on a disk somewhere -- I want people knowing both versions. I am waiting for those in that set to see the story in Emanations because it is the only horror story to make the cut and this is of a staff of 13 editors. Something that is not heard of before in the business. I suggest sending stories to them when given the chance because it is an experience to talk about there. Media Darling is a defining story for me as The Fandom Writer was in 2004 the first time I wrote it. I have that story expanded in Dirty Black Winter. The discussions of the story are open via my message board Seven Points Of Insanity -- I am looking to do a contest for those who want a copy of the book on me and signed. Starting in November I am doing a contest for the next Reality TV tinged horror story and that will be a part of the next anthology I am going to do that will follow up A Library Of Unknown Horrors. It will not be the only type of story in there that is like that and I will be teaching writers how to do this style of a story.
     I will be doing this the moment I get my new computer and have the software to get it going -- just need the computer and everything. My story for the anthology is backed up and in my e-mail inbox. This story and the true story I did are backed up in there. So for right now I am doing everything longhand until the single entry journal is set up, and looking to keep blogging. The library can't show my blog here because they have a filter for blogspot.
     I am in a good mood because I found out my son will be the proud owner of The Ethereal Gazette: Issue 12 and that will have a picture of me so he can see how his dad is doing. I have to do 13 from scratch but I am not worried -- there will be some new projects underway and looking to break out a few writers from the diary-x set on some projects I am doing as Broken Mindframe Books. I don't have domain for that one but all the details on what I look for in that anthology will be posted on my facebook and on the single entry journal when I have that opened up.

front page --- nice!

I could see a few people getting mad at this. I figured since it was time tha I shared this with a few people too as well as the one from the other local paper out of Morris following up on the museum having my anthology. I only wrote one story in the book that is Ghosts In The Tornado. I wonder what FandomWank has to say about this but as far as I am concerned they can collectively hang themselves with the noose around their dirty necks. It's about time I got some good press though the ones who want to smear me like to say they won in ways where this is me winning. I am sure that one of them likes to steal from museums -- I am offering copies of the one article as a snail mail copy for those who want to see the other pictures with it -- the Joliet one, feel free to pass that to your friends but the other you need to be a subscriber to read it online. I think the Joliet one will have a bigger impact because it will be a lot of fun getting something to eat without being asked about the museum, but I will stop and talk with people unless they are sweetexile, any female who lives in her area has my permission to kick the shit out of that dirty backward hick whore.

update so far

This is something big and yes it made the front page on one paper and the other paper is coming soon with the interview. I am looking to raise some cash for this trip I am taking in January and this is how you can help, donate to Writings From The Grave.com and one will get an ebook titled Words From A Dark Truth and this will have some material that will be in Dirty Black Winter. My anthology A Library Of Unknown Horrors is now being carried in the Roselle Public Library and the Edgar Allan Poe Museum. The newspaper in Morris did a front page story about this and the paper coming up is going to be doing an interview about it and use that interview to put some of the naysayers in their place. My computer is down right now so I have to do all the blogging from public computers for the time being and need to take the computer in for a new motherboard then I can get Issue 13 out there. I got a computer from home that won't let me get online but two vital stories are backed up on e-mail. I am sorting through my e-mail right now to get some phone numbers because these are vital to the trip in January to Richmond, Virginia.
     You can also help by grabbing up Dirty Black Winter as well as the anthology itself. David Boyer plagiarized me and looking for someone to send me the book via my post office box I am not going to buy from an asshole who goes around stealing from me. I got this anthology that he scammed me on in a museum too and I am looking to make the book available for ipads. I will have this within the update of this blog and will have the pictures going up from the check I got from the Poe Foundation. Those of who stiffled me for the longest time now had failed in getting people to hate me because it is going in my favor now. The book can still be bought in the trade paperback format too for $15.90 that will be linked up tooo for thoses who want the book as trade paperback too. I suggest getting either one of the two because it will give people something to read either way. The other version has a handwritten synopsis. Lulu.com is doing a good thing here and I guess people can read the book now from a phone or ipad -- I hope those people get the print versions too.

more details on the book itself now.

Hard to believe I managed to reach 45,000 words with the book and this thing I am aiming to make it at least 70,000 words by October. I will say I got an e-mail from a publisher interested in running the book when it is finished. I sent this publisher a sample of what was already done and that was the 1990-1991 section of the book. This thing has a lot of insight to how I think, and I guess some of the trolls are still guessing about the book. I am going to piss off the wank community now too. I will say that The Other Dark Place committed the P-word now not me. They're the ones posting my fiction without permission. I will say this the person who invoked fandom wank to stalk the hell out of me managed to plagiarize characters from Marvel Comics.
     Now dickhead, I know you accuse me of stealing stories from an author I have a lot of respect for -- at least my work is original, mother fucker. Before you blast on me for self-publishing my work blast on this bitch for stealing X-men Characters. My original works are comic book ready in some ways but this bitch shouldn't even have access to a word processor. So with that being said what gives you losers the right to post my fiction on your forums? Do you have any respect for copyrighted material (you want to comment on this use the form below.) I guess Elizabeth Peake and her friends have no respect of anything I've written to the point they would steal it and post it on the forum. I noticed dickhead did post the google search of my book and magazine. They don't allow the whole preview of the books on there so I guess the magazine is still needed to be purchased to read the stories in it.
     You assholes have no permission to post my works on your forum so I suggest it isn't a good idea to do so. Angeline, what if someone decided to post your stories up without your permission? That is exactly what you fucks are doing to my works too asshole and Koehler, I've read your story on Covenhouse you two-bit slut -- it sucks. You assholes want to know who's reputation gets dirtied up in this book keep guessing bitches.
     Oh by the way Marlowe1, listen up you libeling fag -- I've paid the authors in Tabloid Purposes and Tabloid Purposes II, so do you want to keep libeling my books. You are just mad because I am seeing publication of my works outside of lulu.com now. I will say this the non-fiction book will be the death of you man, keep libeling me you have more fuel added to the fire. I am just trying to get books sold like the next guy -- it is immoral what you're doing and it goes against your entire belief system. Thou shall not steal, and you're stealing from my pocket you pushy little fag.

One Shitstorm After Another

This book isn't even done yet and already causing some shockwaves across the board. All the hate mail I am getting now -- I am tempted to put it in the book. I am quite tempted and playing it cool here. Someone put their pawn up, yeah time to move the knight. This is a game of chess the more I play it cool the more they foam at the mouth. Yeah I noticed one tossed a libelous e-mail on a board here and there. I guess this is going to be the endless pissing contest that the The Place That Shall Not Be Named is trying to pull. I am not trying to rile someone up here, but damn I mention that I do something like this people will get pissed and threaten a book burning. Holy shit -- never thought doing something like this will invoke the hardest of emotions of people.
       I noticed that I haven't even logged on that Place That Shall Not Be Named, and say some people have their heads shoved up their asses about it. I am trying to leave the high school politics behind. The more I am not foaming at the mouth myself, they will be. The only way if they stop me from writing this book is they start offering me money and I am not talking singles and fives either. I am playing it smart here and making sure I do more with press releases on things I currently have out already. Just plugging away on the short stories and sending off, some old advice giving to me by someone who wants to railroad me now.
       One thing I am setting out to do with this book is proving one thing -- I am real. And being exactly who you are in person as you are online is the most disturbing. Yeah I can see Brian Knight trying to snag this post and pick it apart with The Rusty Nail or his other piece of shit blog that he has out there to stalk to shit out of me. My palms were sweaty because of the book becuase I didn't think I have it in me to write something of that nature. I began to make some observations with the asshole behind the e-mail address valentinevegen, and I will say he has a connection to that message board. I am always going to bounce back, and this is what they can't stand. My career isn't folding -- this book is going to be something I know is going to be interest to both naysayers just so they can find fuel to bury me with but at the same time the other side of a coin, I want the people to see the Nick my friends saw growing up.
       "I will sign petitions and do EVERYTHING in my power NOT to let you release this non-fiction book." That was the response I got via e-mail today and yes I will post it here -- who knows I might do a book that a best of this blog. The more shocking entries, and all of that good shit. The thing is with me, nothing is satire here but the other book -- there are elements of dark satire in it. What's going to piss the boards off more is I am making a fucking joke out of this. If they want to burn my books, all they're doing is wasting their own hard earned money. The difference between having a blog on other places and here. I've had this location now as long as I did have the others, but never really figured out how to put it to use.
       The views on my blog do not reflect the views of the magazines or publishes who run my work unless it is my own imprint, and I will not run this book on Lake Fossil Press. Tempting as it is, but I won't.

Anthology Is Available


Guess what -- TABLOID PURPOSES IV is just out right now, and for you bastards who like to pirate books good luck trying to pirate this one. If you want to review the book you have to buy it like everyone else. I guess you assholes have to wait for the non-fiction book, and one of them tried to harass one of my college buddies too. And Mark? Who gave you permission to use my photo?
