Stephen Blackmoore is a pulp writer of little to no renown who once thought lighting things on fire was one of the best things a kid could do with his time. Until he discovered that eyebrows don't grow back very quickly.

As a writer he strives to be a hack. Hacks get paid.
He's not sure if hacks talk about themselves in the third person, though. That might just be a side effect of his meds.
His first novel, a dark urban fantasy titled CITY OF THE LOST will be coming out January 3rd, 2012 through DAW Books and will be available at all the fashionable bookstores. Hopefully some of the seedier ones, too.
His short stories and poetry have appeared in Plots With Guns, Needle, Spinetingler, Thrilling Detective, Shots, Demolition, Clean Sheets , Flashing In The Gutters and a couple of anthologies with authors far better than he is.
Occasionally he gets off his fat ass and helps edit (i.e. reads slush) NEEDLE: A MAGAZINE OF NOIR. You should buy a copy. Really. It's good.
He is represented by The Tartan Ninja, Allan Guthrie at Jenny Brown Associates
You can even stalk him on Twitter

I remember liking that Three Card Monty story, but couldn't go to it or the others 'cause your links don't work (or Blogger's all frigged up again).
I once saw a movie where Ron Jeremy blew his own horn.
Sometimes, I really hate Blogger.
Links are fixed. Thanks for the heads up.
Damn man, loved them all. Remembered them all. Probably have a little soft spot for the Monte, though.
I miss The Gutter.
Have you ever gotten these published?
Hi Anonymous,
I suppose it depends on what you mean by "published".
They were originally on a flash fiction site called Flashing In The Gutters, which is now, sadly, defunct.
Since they were lonely orphans I figured I'd just put them up here. I feel weird about trying to submit previously displayed work to another venue.
