New happenings

Yo.

Here's a quick little post to tell you everything that's happenin' in the Hilbert world.



First!

The One Page Salon at the one and only Whip-In in Austin, TX. Click here for the event page. Jason Neulander of Intergalactic Nemesis fame will be hosting and I'll be reading one page from my work in progress, Invasion of the Weirdos. It starts at 7pm.



Second!

I've had some acceptances recently, none of which are yet posted anywhere but I'll tell you about them here.

Out of the Gutter's Flash Fiction Offensive accepted my story, Texas Cockfighter. The title is self-explanatory, really. I'll update and annoy everyone when it gets posted.

Dark Corners Press accepted my story, Voice of God, about a kind of demonic possession. I'm very excited to get into this new press's first release that's due out in September.

Foxing Quarterly is releasing a Green Ranger fanzine called Forever Green and they accepted my true story of love and jealous called, Nice Armor, Tommy. That will also be released in September.



Third! And! Last!

I worked my last shift at the one and only BookPeople on Tuesday. BookPeople is staffed by the hardest working, most talented creatives, and smartest folks I know. When I first moved to Austin, I didn't have any hope of a job. I applied at BookPeople and hassled the hiring manager like crazy about the status of my application. Looking back, that was dumb. They hired me anyways and it was the beginning of me building a community in Austin. My best friends and best creative collaborators work or have worked there. Support your local bookstore and buy a goddamn book from them sometime, will you?

I'm on to other things now and I'm juggling a ton of projects at once so, onward!

Welcome!

I've been checking my website stats and I've noticed an influx of new readers coming from KOOP's Writing on the Air and Ten Minute Interviews. Welcome, new readers!

Because most of my stories cannot be read over FCC regulated airwaves and I can't read one over the air tomorrow night on KOOP 91.7FM, I wanted to direct you to some of my short stories that are available online.












Once again, welcome. I hope you enjoy what you find here. If you find yourself itching to buy my chapbook, Toilet Stories From Outer Space, there are options below. 

The first option is the best option. If you buy the physical copy, I guarantee that I will doodle something on the first page for you. Hell, request a doodle. It's only $5 and there's 7 stories in there. Click that Buy Now button.

Toilet Stories From Outer Space
7 stories
$5



Or, you can get the ebook from Google or Amazon without a doodle.


Oh, and while I'm doing the whole shameless self-promotion thing: Twitter @AHILBERT3000 Facebook
