Alien Buddha Press: “The Alien Buddha’s Got Beef…” – new Lawrence Dagstine story!

Hello, fellow readers. I’ve got a brand new “pulp sci-fi” story to greet you with this month. And it’s being showcased at the long-running Alien Buddha Press. They publish a lot of short story collections and poetry chapbooks, along with a monthly zine. This particular acceptance comes to a themed edition: The Alien Buddha’s Got Beef. What this means is all stories or poems contained within the book has some sort of character or scenario where a BEEF is involved. I’m appearing beside some familiar small press names, like Christopher Dabrowksi, J. Rocky Colavito, and Jacek Wilkos. And Bram Stoker nominee, James Dorr. I’ve appeared with these guys about a dozen times, shared tables of contents before. My story takes place in an interplanetary bar with some interesting regulars, and the beef is in regards to a very important “space race.” A competitive beef. The name of my story is: “The Drinking Man’s Race.” I’ll leave all the necessary photos and clickable links below, along with a pic of the lineup. If you’re into leisurely reading and pulp sf or horror, the Alien Buddha’s got some enjoyable stuff. Great poetry too! 231 beefy pages!

POETRY BOOKS: “Primary Places Sci-Fi & Fantasy Poetry Vol. 2” – Edited by C.M. Bratton

Pleased to announce I have brand new science fiction-themed poetry in the latest chapbook from the San Antonio Science Fiction & Fantasy Author’s Association. I’m one of the headliners for their second volume, and it’s been quite a while since I’ve had any poetry accepted to a journal or magazine or book of some kind. I’d say the last time was the 2000s era. Primary Places is an annual chapbook series to my knowledge, 88 pages in length, and also features the poetic works of C.M. Bratton (who edited the book), E.W. Farnsworth, Kevin Looney, Patrick Neal, Juan Perez, Joseph A. Schiller, and Michael Wigington. The poems contained within run the gamut of your typical haikus to sonnets to other fixed verse form. The theme here is speculative: science fiction, fantasy, and mild touches of horror. There is artwork and photography accompanying the poems contained within. So, I am also pleased to announce I contributed some of these photos. This would be my first photography credit. Check it out. On Amazon. There is a very affordable color version and black-and-white version. It makes for great reading on your daily commute. Links and pics below.
