SEX, THUGS AND ROCK & ROLL is now available

[Daniel Hatadi]

Smack bang in the middle of a fine collection of thuggery related literature is my story, BUDDHA BEHIND BARS. It's my first publishing credit so I'm celebrating by dehydrating a bottle of Johnnie Walker and snorting it off the belly of ... okay, I'm just having a glass of Coke. But still, I'm hoping this will kick my arse on to a chair and force me to write some more.

With an intro penned by Sarah Weinman, followed by a love letter from Big Daddy Thug, the collection includes stories from the broken keyboards of Patricia Abbott, Jonas Knutsson, Jedidiah Ayres, Justin Porter, Albert Tucher, Joe R. Landsdale, Scott Wolven, D.T. Kelly, Marcus Sakey, Steven M. Messner, Hugh Lessig, Lyman Feero, Gary Carson, Matthew Baldwin and Jason Starr.

The faint of heart and the high of morals need not apply.

Ha ha, right back at ya (Hardcore Hardboiled?).

Seriously, thank you.

[Mike MacLean]

I'm jealous. This is a great collection to be included in. A well-earned congratulations.

[Daniel Hatadi]

Thanks for all the kind comments guys. I'm pretty sure that shot was taken when I was younger and skinnier. Same amount of hair though.

[Patrick Balester]

Congratulations. You're in some good company...how'd you manage to get the x-ray profile of your torso selected for the book cover? Steal it from your doctor's office? LOL

[Naomi Johnson]

Outstanding! Congratulations, for sure. And I second Cynthia - that's a sweet cover.

[Dana King]

Congratulations, Daniel. I recently read Thuglit's Hardcore Hardboiledcollection and it was excellent. Nice location for a first credit.

[I. J. Parker]

Congratulations! That's excellent, Daniel. Keep us posted on all your writing.
