So the new Bubba the Monster Hunter story is out. You can check it out here. It’s the culmination of the storyline between Bubba and his psycho father, but at the end of the story I’m a bit of a dick.
I know, big surprise.
Remember, the only thing writers enjoy more than torturing characters is torturing readers. And I get to do both in one shot.
I leave you on a bit of a cliffhanger, but you won’t have to wait too long for a resolutions. I plan to pick back up with Bubba stories in January. So just a couple of months to wait.
But here’s the current plan for Bubba publications.
Shorts 1-4 are collected in Monsters Beware.
Shorts 5-8 are collected in Monsters Mashed.
The next collection will include Sixteen Tons, Family Tradition and Final Countdown. It will be called something like Monsters Everywhere, unless y’all give me a better two-word title starting with the word “monsters.” This will be a $3.99 ebook, a discount over buying all three books individually.
Then I’ll release a collection of all of the Bubba stories to date. It will be called Scattered, Smothered and Chunked: Bubba the Monster Hunter Season One. It’ll be on sale soon as a $9.99 ebook, which is cheaper than buying all eleven books individually.
Bump in the Night is the current Bubba print collection, collecting stories 1-8 for $15. It will go away, never to be seen again. I will soon (probably early next year) have a print edition for Scattered, Smothered and Chunked, so it’s easy for readers to get the whole story in one place. It’ll probably be about $20.
Then next year I’ll work on getting even more adventures of Bubba, Skeeter and Agent Amy. Assuming they all live through Final Countdown.
Just wanted to give y’all a publication update on everybody’s favorite redneck, so you know where we are with things. Lemme know if you’ve got title suggestions or any other feedback on the stories. They’re a lot of fun to write, so I’ll likely keep turning them out on the order of one about every month, with a little break now and then.
Monsters Massing?
Monsters Macerated?
Monsters Away?
Cliffhanger ending … I seem to recall somebody being REALLY upset at Jim Butcher for doing this. 🙂
Yeah, total dick move. I came here to see what I could see because of it. In January, I’ll be back like a certain Austrian Oak. 🙂
Monsters Revenge. Monsters Ascendant. Monsters Asskicked?
