Jersey Devil Press Loves You

Mola Ram Loves You Too

Valentine’s Day is tomorrow, and, while there’s always the chance everything will go fine and the night will end with you, your significant other, and an empty bottle of wine, it could also end with the violent shooting deaths of seven mobsters, or with you cooking dinner for your roommates, realizing halfway through that February 14th is important to some people and you probably should go see your girlfriend, shrugging it off, finishing dinner, and then going to see your girlfriend anyway and having to have one of those big, important, stupid relationship conversations at ten at night with little to no chance of that bottle of wine showing up. You know, hypothetically.

Our point is, while the world is terrifying and sometimes snorts when it laughs, there is one constant that you can grab onto: Jersey Devil Press loves you. Platonically, romantically, and sometimes we watch you with binoculars while you’re in the shower-ly.

That is why, on this wonderful day, we are giving you less than three (less than three = <3, get it?!) of our most romantic titles, filled with loving, longing, and boners. Between today, Wed. 13th, and Sun. 17th, you can get Danger_Slater's Love Me and Eirik Gumeny and Stephen Schwegler’s Screw the Universe for free for your Kindle. Two more perfect books about the search for love and sweet, sweet lovin’ there never were.

Look, we’re not saying you should steal your wife’s Kindle, download these books (and the .pdf of the February issue [which is actually about love {albeit the mutual masturabation to ducks kind}]) onto it, wrap it, and give it back to her in lieu of flowers and chocolates. We’re just saying that, if you do, we guarantee it will be a Valentine’s Day she never forgets.

A Raucous Caucus: SHAKE AWAY THESE CONSTANT DAYS Book Launch in Iowa, Wednesday, November 7th

Ryan Werner, God of Rock (and possibly Thunder), Author of SHAKE AWAY THESE CONSTANT DAYS

Like the protagonists of one of Stephen King’s better novels, folks from across the whole of North America will be drawn to the serene town of Dubuque, Iowa, this Wednesday, to battle evil and bolster the forces of good.

Is there a beast lose in the streets of Bethlehem? Worse, and better. Ryan Werner — god of rock and thunder — will be summoning his forces to celebrate the release of his elegy to the magic of music and flash fiction: Shake Away These Constant Days.

Sure, the book technically was released in September and eLaunched in October, but Shake Away These Constant Days is so good its revelation requires three stages. Wednesday at Monk’s Kaffee, will be the third and final roll out, with Ryan on hand, in person, to read, possibly play, and almost certainly sign books. (And fight evil, that goes without saying.)

So if you are anywhere near the state of Iowa on Wednesday, get yourself to Monk’s at 7:00 pm local time and bring your friends. You can pretend it’s American Gods, instead of The Stand, but the point is you need to drive long distances across the Mid West to get to a certain destination by a certain time for a really good reason. Because Shake Away These Constant Days is sorta, kinda incredible and Ryan deserves all the support he can get. (Like say, a review on Amazon if you genuinely dig his work.)

Gas up the Winnebago, the Harley, or the Saturn, make sure your mail-in ballot is received at your local electoral commission before the close of polls on Tuesday, and get your ass to Dubuque.

Ryan Werner. Book Launch. Shake Away These Constant Days.

If you grew up in the Seventies or Eighties in Jersey, we don’t have to tell you who Crazy Eddie was. And if you didn’t, well, the point is the man liked a bargain. And there’s no better bargain than free. Which is what Eirik Gumeny’s Exponential Apocalypse, Stephen Schwegler’s Perhaps, and Danger_Slater’s Love Me all are for your Kindle or Kindle-compatible computer.

But only for the rest of today. The Great JDP Book Giveaway ends at midnight!
