- August 2008: I now have in hand the first copy, fresh from the printers, of the trade paperback Santa Claus Conquers the Homophobes, a sequel to Santa Steps Out. More news here as the book makes its appearance on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other online bookstores. Santa Claus Conquers the Homophobes will also be available as a eBook from my POD publisher, booklocker.com. Stay tuned, folks. You'll want to own this one!
- March 2008: My first published novel, Deadweight (Dell Abyss, 1994), long out of print, has lifted its horrific bones from the grave and now walks among us again. Deadweight can be ordered from booklocker.com (read the first three chapters there), Amazon, or B&N. It's also listed in Ingram's so you may have luck ordering it through your local bookstore.
- October 2007: I've been podcast-interviewed about Deadolescence: A Tale of Love and Sacrifice and much more by Brian Matus and Damian Smith. I have no idea how good or ill an interview subject I was. You be the judge! Look for Episode 18 here.
- September 2006: My short story "God's Madmen," in which Abraham Van Helsing uses Dr. Jekyll's reconstituted potion to spike the tea of attendees at the first international peace conference (1899) in The Hague, will be published in issue #4 of Farthing magazine, Fall of 2006. The story was originally requested for Jeanne Cavelos's The Many Faces of Van Helsing but Jeanne rejected it as not quite horrific enough in the traditional sense. The editor is always right, of course, as her sense of her own anthology cannot be gainsaid. But lamentations over the obscenity that is war are my concern in that story, and that's plenty horrific enough in my book!
- August 2006: Much of my early work is now available in a variety of eBook formats at Fictionwise.com, including my first two out-of-print novels, Deadweight and Walking Wounded, and ten short stories. For a complete list of my offerings on Fictionwise, step right this way.
- July 2006: I'm delighted to announce that John Mason Skipp's Mondo Zombie has been loosed upon the world, courtesy of Cemetery Dance Publications. My story "Holy Fast, Holy Feast," about an undead guru in Montreal, told in the metafictional reality-fracture of Robert Coover's classic mindbender "The Babysitter," joins a host of tales in the grand tradition of Book of the Dead and Book of the Dead 2: Still Dead, the Skipp and Spector anthologies that finally eventuated in this one. From Nickolas Cook's Hellnotes review: "Robert Devereaux’s [story] is the best literary take on the concept of infinite possibilities I’ve ever had the pleasure to read. His skill in weaving and bobbing the multiple parallel stories is stunning."
