Sunday morning, Brian Keene revealed the official Splatterpunk Awards nominations over on his blog, which included my novel Carnivorous Lunar Activities under the “Best Novel” category.

Check out all of the nominations here.

From Keene’s post: “A panel of judges composed of professionals, critics and scholars in the field will now begin the process of reading each nominated work, and selecting a winner for each category. Winners will be announced at KillerCon, taking place in Austin, Texas this August 7th through the 9th.”

KillerCon is one of my favorite conventions and I try to attend it every year. Obviously this year in particular will be a little different, as I’ve never been nominated for an award before. It feels nice. I like the feeling. I feel insane with power. I feel like setting a bank on fire. I feel like eating carbs. I feel like applying hand sanitizer to a paper cut. Hell yeah. That’s the good stuff, baby. Mmm.

I will be wearing one of the following three shirts during the awards banquet at KillerCon. If you have an opinion about which one you prefer, feel free to let me know in the comments below.

You can buy Carnivorous Lunar Activities from your local indie bookshop here.
