(novella, Eraserhead Press, 2008)
Kevin lives in a small apartment above a porn shop with his
tarot-reading cat, Mithra. He has gotten used to Mithra
bringing him things from outside: dead mice, Twinkie
wrappers, donut scraps, houseplants, and the occasional
rabbit head. But one day, Mithra brings him an ankle... a
sweaty piece of rubber-latex shaped like a human ankle.
Later, he is brought an eyeball, then a foot. After more
latex body parts are brought upstairs, Kevin decides to
glue them together to form a piecemeal sex doll. But once
the last piece is glued into place, the sex doll comes to life.
She says her name is June. She comes from another world
and is on the run from an evil pornographer and three
crab-human hybrid assassins.
Piecemeal June is a reality-bending journey into love,
sex, death, and a bizarre parallel world of butchered flesh.
Here's what Gina Ranalli, author of CHEMICAL GARDENS and WALL
OF KISS had to say about the book:
"Bodily fluids drip from the pages of PIECEMEAL JUNE like octopus
ink and leave you holding your nose with sticky fingers and wishing
you were even half as demented as Jordan Krall."

(Novella Collection, Eraserhead Press, Summer 2008)
On the surface, Thompson looks like any other blue-collar New Jersey
town. But beneath the working-class exterior lies a bizarro world of
fetishistic crime, sleazy motels, and squid.
In these three bizarro-noir novellas, the reader is thrown into a world of
murderers, drugs made from squid parts, deformed gun-toting
veterans, and a mischievous apocalyptic donkey.
THE COLLECTION INCLUDES...
THE HABERDASHER
Red Henry Hooper just got out on parole. He meets his friends, fellow
small-time criminals Dix Hayden and Grant Minissi, in a cheap motel
room to drink a couple beers and perhaps plan another job. Things go
sour when Grant takes some bad drugs. Meanwhile, in the next room,
strange things are happening that will make Henry’s day even worse: a
woman is missing her feet and a notorious local gangster Robert
Hapertas (aka The Haberdasher) is on his way. And he’s not pleased.
THE LONGHEADS
Tommy Pingpong knew it was a mistake sending his partner Jake into
the meeting with their boss. Now they were on the run from Peachy, a
diaper-wearing gangster who would like nothing better than to kill the
both of them. On top of that, the deformed war veterans called the
longheads are buying up all the guns in town, planning something big
that’ll have severe implications for the town of Thompson.
THE APOCALYPSE DONKEY
When Simon Palmer took the black envelope from the tall man in the
parking lot, he didn’t know that this case of mistaken identity would
make his day take such a weird turn for the worst. When the man
finally realizes that he gave the envelope to the wrong guy, Simon is
thrown into a dangerous cat-and-mouse game that finally leads to a
sleazy carnival of squidy violence.
