Prolong Your Torment with Me
Yes, this fucko occasionally writes stories, too. Some people
have even said nice things about them. Got a whole ass book
of 'em together now. And I'm pretty fucking proud of it. Not
just the putting together of larger works than my usual poetry,
but who I've had the opportunity to work with in creating it.
First off, Bludgeon Girls press has been amazing to work with.
They have provided solid editorial advice without pushing to
compromise my absolutely inviolable and perfect artistic
vision (please stop laughing at me). They are working very
hard to promote the book and me. I didn't run into any
pushback on my standard determination to get the cover art
and design myself. Most importantly, they are cool ass people
doing fun stuff with words and I GET TO PLAY WITH
THEM.
Then, there is the artwork by Betty Rocksteady. I've been a
huge fan of both her art and her writing for years. Having her
art on a book of mine is cooler than I can convey. Just look at
that Goopy Buddy! It's cute, but also gross. Atrociously
adorable, yet very wet in a discomfitting way. And those eyes,
man. So many eyes. I have a thing about eyes. So badass. I
love it.
Not really last, but last for the moment was getting a blurb
from Laurel Hightower. My bitch writes some of the most
amazing books I have read. Her stuff hits, and it hits hard as
fuck. And she said WHAT about my brainbabies?
"Darkly humorous, erotic, gory, and unflinching in the way
only Anton Cancre can do. With a signature immersive
writing style, Cancre pulls the reader head first into
nightmares and guts, liable to end up with a mouthful of
viscera. The stories showcased in KLANCAR a wide array of
subject matter and approach—at times I didn't know whether
to laugh, flinch or puke, in the best possible way. You may not
know how to feel when you reach the end, but by hell you'll
feel it deep."
