The Kay Gardella Memorial Blog<\/a> and posts are starting to develop a following, and soon it will be time for the classy and classical Idiots at the Opera<\/a>, but do any of you go check out my work? Apparently not.<\/p>\n

What gives?<\/p>\n

You do realize if you aren’t at least looking at my books, then I have no justification for wasting time on this blog when I could be writing more books that nobody will look at, or maybe even looking for\u00a0paid<\/em> work?<\/p>\n

So take a look below, please, and pick whichever you find least noxious, and at least go check out the reviews — if only to snigger and mutter how they must be fake because that’s what Jonathan Franzen thinks<\/a>, and you still take him seriously, despite his obsessive hatred for cats<\/a>, and women, and the Internet, and the world in general<\/a> except for boids, dirty, disgusting lice-ridden boids<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>You’ve got The Death Trip,<\/a>, only 99 cents on Kindle. It’s a quick read novella as cool as its cover. Simple premise — What if a pharmaceutical company came up with a way to make death the ultimate trip?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Or you might prefer Schrodinger’s Telephone<\/a>, set in New York City between 1990 and 2001, a story about grief, hope, faith and the thin line between madness and vision. It’s also a quick read and only 99 cents.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>And if you’re ready to commit to an actual novel, check out Loisaida<\/em><\/a>, a story inspired by true events, including a murder so grotesque it became a neighborhood legend. You got gentrifiers, artists, anarchists, devil worshippers, drug addicts, potheads, and failed revolutionaries all vying for space in a city where people kill for cheap rent (literally). That one’s actually available in paperback<\/a> as well as on Kindle<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Oh and if you do buy something, and you actually read it, and it turns out you are stunned, or even mildly surprised by the quality of the work, please say a few words on facebook or the twitter or Amazon or Goodreads or someplace else, or all of the previous.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
