Goatman: Published
Tonight has been an extremely satisfying night. The latest proof copy of Goatman: Flesh or Folklore? arrived almost a week early. After what likely amounted to my 100th reading of the material, I finally realized the book was now ready for humanoid consumption. With a light heart and a nervous stomach, I gave the go ahead for publication.
As of this moment Goatman: Flesh or Folklore? is now on sale at my store and on Amazon.com
Within 14 days the book with be available on Kindle.
Within 6-8 weeks (but likely much sooner) the book with be available at Barnes and Noble, and just about anywhere else books are sold.
They say there are seven stages of grief. I believe there are also seven stages to writing a book. For me they are, in order:
1) Skeptical enthusiasm
2) Fanatical dedication
3) Bleak disillusionment
4) Sickening self-doubt
5) Euphoric enthusiasm
6) Crippling anxiety
7) Complete and total relief
I am presently at stage seven. There’s a lot of people who deserve recognition for making this project a reality, but I’ll save that for the book’s acknowledgment page. But I would like to use this space to thank everyone who’s believed in me and followed my other projects. If you’ve ever attended one of my talks, tours, or presentations; if you’ve ever liked something of mine on social media; If you’ve ever told a friend about one my projects; if you’ve ever pretended to laugh at one of my terrible, terrible, terrible jokes, you’re responsible for Goatman: Flesh or Folklore? being written.
I hope you’ll all enjoy it, or at the very least, mumble to yourself “That Couch fellow knows a lot about weird stuff” as you shove the book into the box marked “Goodwill.”
Thanks one, thanks all.
