Drowning in Beauty: The Neo-Decadent Anthology

The new Snuggly Books anthology DROWNING IN BEAUTY is now available to order (from the Snuggly website and all the usual sources). I have a story in it, that'll probably be in my 3rd collection, but if you want to read it ahead of time, now's your chance. Anyway, with the help of a number of the contributors I put together an introduction to the book and its writers that is being hosted on Dennis Cooper's blog this weekend, so... knock yourself out.
