Jimmy Pudge

Want to hear about another great horror writer?

Well we’ve got one for you; Jimmy Pudge!

Jimmy is a published author with his second novel due out soon, but more importantly – Jimmy is hilarious! Now that is something we admire here at Erebus Horror. Many horror writers can be dark, moody and depressing (hey it works!) but every once in a while, the likes of Jimmy Pudge comes along and automatically you crack a smile. Now ordinarily we tell you a bit about the author and what not, but not today…  Today Jimmy himself is going to tell you in his own words what he’s about.

Jimmy James “M.F.” Pudge was born into this world on 6-9-1979 in a truck stop toilet at a TA Travel Center in the backwoods of South Georgia. An honest and conscientious man, Jimmy served several prison sentences because he refused to give in to the federal laws that impose independent spirits’ rights to be entrepreneurs.  An expert in the art of pruno, shank construction, and paper dart blow guns, Jimmy briefly served as a leader in his dorm room before being released early for good behavior.

He now serves as a gourmet chef in the fast food industry and writes during his off time. He is the father of possibly four little girls, two of which he pays child support for. Jimmy briefly considered a run for political office before discovering felons were ineligible to participate in the democratic process.

When he’s not working or visiting his probation officer, you can find Jimmy James on Facebook. His favorite color is brown. His favorite TV show is Little House on the Prairie. He thinks Nelly Olson is a scumbag.

And I think that’s enough said! Check out the link below to purchase Jimmy’s book and see what all the fuss is about – Trust us, it will be a sound investment!

No One Makes It Out Alive – An End of the World Anthology

Posted in Books with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on February 28, 2012 by Erebus Horror

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before, but in my opinion, horror anthologies are the bees knees! No matter where you are, no matter how much time you have, you can pick one of these bad boys up and just start reading. This is especially the case with this ‘End of the World’ anthology. Over the past week I have dipped in and out of this book during my hectic life (concluding with my little trip to jail – ouch!) and each time I did I was more and more impressed.

There are twelve stories in total (thirteen if you include the foreword) and all at varying lengths. There’s no way I’d be able to pick my favourite as all tend to instill a fear of what the end of the world will bring. Authors include: Hydra M. Star (who also edited the book), Andrea Dean van Scoyoc, Garth von Buchholz, Joseph DeRepentigny, Josephine Seven, Ken Knight, Larry Lefkowitz, Magan Rodriguez, Tibbie X and W. Freedreamer Tinkanesh. All of these authors were new to me (but may not be to others) and I can honestly say I was impressed with each and every one. Each brings a unique element to the book so it doesn’t just feel like the same armageddon ploy on each page. There’s differing dynamics, pace and plot which makes the book an entertaining read.

This book has everything from zombies to greek mythology, mind-numbing horror to sheer comedy. What else could you ask for?
