Dropping on July 29th!!! Keep your eyes peeled...

Into The Swamp of The Dangerous Mind by Efe Tuşder is flash fiction prose from a strange alternate universe. A chapbook written in the form of listening to an apocalyptic pirated radio station in a place called The Rotten Land. A world full of cults, necromancers, ho******ic religious ceremonies, self-sacrifice rituals, depraved s*x fetishes, cannibalism, and other taboo tales of its oddball inhabitants. Featuring cover art by the author, and 19 intense visual images of his digital collage artwork inside.

Tune in to the madness and grab yourself a copy for an insane trip Into The Swamp of The Dangerous Mind of Efe Tuşder, available July 29th!

This book is set in the same microcosm as his short story and artwork collection, Tales From The Rotten Land (amazon.com/dp/B0C1J1XDGM), published by Cajun Mutt Press in 2023. Efe's books would be satisfying reads for fans of absurd horror, splatterpunk, and transgressive literature.

Crow City Bleeding by David Alec Knight is now available from Cajun Mutt Press!!

amazon.com/dp/B0FBM9SCKX

Crow City Bleeding is about his city. It might be about yours, too.

From past recipient of The Ted Plantos Memorial Award, and author of The Heart Is A Hollow Organ and L***r Mosh, comes David Alec Knight's third full collection of new poetry, Crow City Bleeding. It depicts what daily life is like for those of us engulfed in urban sprawl, who work for a living, who live with neurodivergence, or those who are just trying to figure out what the hell happened to their lives when they weren't looking.

In every city, such men and women live, love, hate, grieve, struggle and survive, in apartment after apartment, subdivision after subdivision. The poems in this collection won't provide any phoney-cheer escapism, but they will have you feeling that you are known and understood, that you may yet be truly alive and not merely existing, that you cast your shadow upon your city as often as it casts its shadow upon you. In these poems you will see yourself, or someone you know, or someone you will soon enough meet.

This book is the perfect read for fans of poets like Charles Bukowski, Carl Sandburg, Al Purdy, or Stephen Crane.

Featuring David Alec Knight's original artwork on the cover, blurbs by the poets–authors Dan Denton and Westley Heine, and a foreword by three–time Bram Stoker Award winner Mort Castle.

Dan Flore's poetry isn't afraid to be lascivious, desperate or nostalgic. I guess that's a lot like life.
—Chris Dusterhoff

Do you like energy drinks and ass? Do you have anxiety?
If the answer is “No”, then it’ll turn into a “Yes” after reading “Everything Must Go”. Dan’s open and honest no-holds-barred style of writing is a kick in the teeth. “You could use the taste of cement. Might rattle you back to yourself.”
—Michael E. Duckwall

I've been happy to publish Dan Flore's work on Open Arts Forum for the better part of 5 years, and this collection of short fiction amply demonstrates why. From the insanity of navigating bureaucracy to the surrealism of existential dread, Flore's tales offer a satirical mirror reflecting the absurdity of our reality. Prepare to laugh, cringe, and contemplate the fine line between madness and sanity in this mesmerizing journey through the mind of a master storyteller.

Dan Flore III is a biographer of the transience of moments. He paints a discerning undercurrent of poetic strokes that leave lasting impressions even though he lays open for us that Everything Must Go.

Check out this fantastic review of CMP's first release of 2025, Everything Must Go by Dan Flore III!! Book review written by Munmun Samanta from CHEWERS BY MASTICADORES.

"This book demands patience and willingness to sit in discomfort. S*x, addiction, and self-destruction are integral to the theme and overall purpose of the book. The frankness of s*x talk, mental illness, and addiction may seem too unpolished and gritty but ultimately these blunt voices animated the human emotions most vividly. That’s why the author can ask to take his tears or express his desire to meet God in someone’s false eyelashes."

Read Full Review Here:

Dan Flore III’s “Everything Must Go” is a raw and unflinching exploration of human experience delving into themes of mental illness, desperation, and the absurdity of life. But th…
