Our Goal: Unite the write! We will join forces where we are strong, eliminate duplication of effort where we are weak and put the power and authority over literature back into the hands of the only legitimate owners: the authors and the readers.

About me: Visit Outsider Writers
OW was founded in February 2007 by five underground authors with a similar drive for outsider writer activism/advocacy. Why OW? Because being an underground writer can be painful.
Outsider Writers have been distributing chapbooks in dark subterranian caverns for too long. The corporate presses and literary institutions have no vision. The media is irrelevant. It's time to rise into the sun!
wanted to shout out for hellbound by David McLean, the second entry in the workers in blood chapbook series - available now from Epic Rites Press. hellbound is quite possibly the coolest and tightest chapbook to ever emerge from the underground poetry scene. these poems are the literary equivalent of skin being stripped from the bone. check out samples at http://epicrites.typepad.com/epicritespress/hellbound-by-david-mclean.html. please support David McLean and Epic Rites Press by ordering your copy today at http://www.abyssgazesalso.com. best regards from everyone here at Epic Rites.

Chicks dig scars, everyone knows that, right? Meet Severence DeSnappio, a man who creates ‘fake’ injuries for desperate clients. He’ll get you a stab wound, shot gun blast, snowboarding injury - but a bite from a great white shark?
Set in Miami, Chicks Dig scars is a lyrical, Lynchian mix of dream logic and hard boiled detection.

Thank's for hanging in there with me while I was off line unexpectedly for the past few months. When I was finally able to get back on line I'd lost a number of my casual friends because I couldn't get back to them in a timely manner, or so I assume that's the reason. Anyway, much appreciated.
.......Fans of Nightbreed we need to prove once and for all to the studios that there is a dedicated fan base that has been waiting for the director's cut of this film to reach DVD for years. With your support we could well influence a DVD release as a pure commercial decision, but we need to figure out just how large that audience really is. A small but noisy group will not make a difference here - we need to see just how many people would actually put down their hard-earned money for this... ..Remember, there isn't a Region 2 DVD release at all and the Region 1 release is a bare bones version missing the 25 minutes of footage that Clive would love to get back into the movie - a song, some violence, some structure... There's also the prospect of a commentary and hours of potential bonus content... ....What do you think? ....If you're interested in showing the size of audience or demand for an extended version of Nightbreed, please either e-mail us at philandsarah@clivebarker.info or send us a Tweet to @philandsarah (find us at our Twitter page here). ....Just your name or screen name is fine but please feel free to add your country of residence and / or a sentence or two on why this would be a great idea.
