  • Xylene X Band, by Charles Harvey
    Sep 10 2024
    Joe Ecks: X Band's Rock and Roll Guitarist. Though a musical genius, he's tortured and miserable under the demands of the industry. Dogged by bad headaches and other ailments, Joe erupts in violent outbursts. Ultimately (on page 1), Joe has a breakdown that results in a complete personality change. Joe now thinks of himself as Mike Smith: Harvard Grad. Mike Smith is the opposite of Joe Ecks in nearly every way; he's no musical genius, and he can't play guitar, but he loves being a rock star. 'Xylene X Band' is the story of how the New Joe learns to live Joe's life, and, to a certain degree, how Joe's life adapts to his new personality. But to truly live Joe's life, New Joe must develop the skills, and they will be severely tested by the upcoming 'Xylene' tour. New Joe is no Old Joe, and X Band desperately needs Old Joe to return.

  • Dog Logic, by Tom Strelich
    Aug 29 2024
    Hertell Daggett is not what he used to be: he’d once been married, he’d once been a physicist, and he’d once been shot in the head in a New Year’s Eve accident. Or possibly the 4th of July, he could never quite remember. The doctors got most of the bullet out, but a few microscopic specks of copper remained floating inside his brain, connecting parts that are no longer connected in the rest of us, filaments of species memory going back to the beginning of time. He knew how animals thought and remembered the singing of dinosaurs, and the dry humor of mastodons, and the rubbery smell of trilobites. He’d once had a future, but he lived now on the outskirts of Bakersfield, California, a damaged caretaker of a run down, failing pet cemetery. And he’s been hearing something....

    Aug 23 2024
    In Chips We Trust. In the seaside town of Fry Cove, the seagull inhabitants enjoy plentiful chips, especially in the high season when the delightful bay is full of tourists. Steven Fitzgerald, a lowly member of the chip reconnaissance team, wishes he wasn't so useless at his job, but he dreams of becoming an entrepreneur. However, one day, the chips mysteriously disappear, and no one knows the answer to this chipocalypse. Who committed this heinous crime? Was it the Deny the Fry colony, who want all seagulls to quit chips and revert to eating fish? Or was it the seagull mafia boss, Stefano Giacomo, who has concocted a dastardly plot to convert all seagulls to pizza and pasta? As part of the newly formed CIA (Chips Investigation Agency), whose motto is 'In Chips We Trust,' Fitzy, Charlie, Steven Colton, the karate chopping Bart, and Steven Rhys pit their wits to solve the mystery. Along the way, they make enemies and forge alliances with a range of quirky characters. Join Fitzy in this feel good tale about self-belief and teamwork, while he embarks on the adventure of a lifetime.
