Do you have a Kindle version of Cthulhurotica? If so, you can get a it “signed” by our editor, Carrie Cuinn, digitally … free! Go to Kindlegraph.com and search for “Cthulhurotica”, or click on this link, and you’ll be able to request a signature. At this time the service is only allowing a single signature per book, but as soon as it opens to multiple authors we’ll try to get as many of our contributors on board as we can.
If you don’t have a Kindle and would still like signature page to go with your ebook, click on the image below to see the larger version, and then save it to your computer.
Or get it as a PDF by right-clicking here and saving the linked file.
Due to a change in the 2012 publishing schedule at Dagan Books, our open submissions period for the second book in this series will begin at noon EST on April 1, 2012, and go through June 30, 2012. This will allow us to have the book available for purchase at the end of 2012.
We’ve updated the Press and Reviews page to include two great new reviews:
October 5, 2011 – “The stories range from creepy to cute to downright arousing, touching on all ranges of attraction.” A Book Hunter’s Journal
September 1, 2011 – “The real draw for me was the way the stories approached existing characters and settings from a whole new vantage point.” Wag the Fox
Over and over again, we hear that people weren’t sure what to make of the book until they read it, and then they fell in love. If you’re reviewed Cthulhurotica but we don’t have you listed, let us know!
Thanks to the success of Cthulhurotica and the support of its readers, we have decided to go ahead with plans to produce a second volume. This will be an open anthology, though we hope to invite back some of our favorite authors from the first book.
Submissions will open later this year, and there will be plenty of news and ideas posted here before then. If you think you might want to submit, but haven’t read Cthulhurotica yet, please pick up a copy today! Our 344 page paperback is only $13.99, available here from Amazon. Both the Kindle and .epub versions of the book are still only $3.99. Get yours today!

Some of our recent reviews include:
April 26, 2011 – “I would like to go on record as to say Cthulhurotica may well be the first great original Mythos story collection of the 21st Century. Read it!” J. Keith Haney, Innsmouth Free Press
May 6, 2011 – “Cthulhurotica is as close as I’ve seen to adult Mythos fiction done right.” Yog-Sothoth
May 12, 2011 – “This anthology of 20 plus stories is about stimulation of types defined by you the reader- terrifying, creepy, arousing, provocative- take your pick.” Boston Book Bums
