Well, the idea of a blog taking its monthly day off means a little less when the once-daily blog has already stepped back from the "daily" part. Nonetheless! It's time to prep our monthly private post, shared only with Boppin's beloved paid supporters.
This month's private post is the entire text of my new novelette A Band Called GUITARS VS. RAYGUNS!, a vanity publication that gathers six related short stories from my recent book Guitars Vs. Rayguns!! Short Stories And Other White Lies, and lets 'em play as a short but punchy standalone narrative. From the new book's back cover blurb:
Originally a series of short stories, the individual tales of A Band Called GUITARS VS. RAYGUNS! form a novelette about the misadventures of a scrappy, foul-mouthed, planet-hopping rock 'n' roll group just trying to get through each cosmic one-night stand without getting laser-fried by drunken extraterrestrials demanding they play "Free Bird." The band doesn't wanna play "Free Bird."
Hijinks ensue.
The ebook of A Band Called GUITARS VS. RAYGUNS! is available right now from your usual online resources, and the paperback edition will be available very soon.
