In 4Q 2018 our company entered negotiations with a private client. RGP’s talent remains busy working under a nondisclosure agreement (NDA), but will cease publication to the public on July 1, 2019.

Surgeons amputated Stonewall Jackson's arm days before he died of pneumonia, and buried it in a separate grave.

..a lost cause.

15 year-old Lee Viloria-Paulino was more popular than his classmate Mathew Borges and purportedly slept with Borges's girlfriend. In a jealous rage, Borges decapitated Viloria-Paulino, put his head in a bag, and cut off his hands.

Yet again, YA Fact is more fascinating than YA Fiction.

SALEM — The Lawrence teen accused of beheading and cutting off the hands of a schoolmate killed him in a jealous rage, a prosecutor said Monday as the first-degree murder trial of Mathew Borges com…

Nearly 1 in 4 paperbacks are pulled from shelves, stripped of their covers and destroyed, unsold. The environmental impact of publishing, from production to distribution, is staggering. EBooks save paper, ink, and transportation to and from bookstores. Plus, ePublishing makes it easier to get our stories to you from our offices in Ha Long Bay.
At Rot Gut Pulp, we only publish eBooks or print-on-demand so our pulps don't get... well... pulped.

RotGutPulp editor-in-chief Curt Sembello approved CT Liotta's debut short pulp "Relic of the Damned!" while swinging in a hammock in his cabin in Ha Long Bay. He was drunk at the time - probably on whisky, but maybe on gin - and slurred and giggled when he called our office to green-light the project. Then, he disappeared for two days. When he returned, clean and sober, he could not remember giving his blessing. Still, people seem to like it. Follow the link in our bio to our website, and see for yourself.
