I'm on a Year's Best List

Though Murderland part 1:h8 was published in 2008, I sent a review copy to Jason Pettus of the Chicago Center for Literature and Photography in 2009 and I am proud to announce I made it onto his list of the Year's Best Experimental Fiction here:
http://www.cclapcenter.com/2010/01/t...9_best_ex.html

Sarah Jahier of horror review blog Fatally Yours had good things to say about it here:
http://www.fatally-yours.com/horror-...-garrett-cook/

Withersin reviewed it very positively here:
http://www.withersin.com/review_murderland.htm

And our very own Neverending and Chronogrl gave it 5 stars on the Amazon page here:
http://www.amazon.com/Murderland-Par...5588889&sr=1-1

Getting on the CCLAP list made me very proud of the privilege to reach the people I've reached thus far with my work. To everyone on HDC who's read the book and supported the work, thanks, guys!
My other non Murderland book Archelon Ranch has been getting good reviews from Small Press Reviews:

Publisher and editor of The Horror Fiction Review Nick Cato's blog Antibacterial Pope:

I feel good today. I love my wonderful (if not lucrative) job.

My other book Archelon Ranch is published by Australians so should be more attainable. It's on Amazon UK.

I like Archelon Ranch better because it's the weirder, more personal and more aberrant of the two. It contains dinosaurs, zombies and the survivors of a dollar store hot sauce war.

Hearty Congrats, Doc! A party is in order!

Now you can officially go ahead and write something on killer cabbages and platypus kings, and the audiences will lap it up eagerly.

Excellent work, Doc - hell of a good book. I wish I had your talent.
