Genuinely unrelated but earlier today I was having such a good time reading/editing the manuscript for THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK-MAN that for the first time in my life I thought, "It might be fun to do an audio book for this," an idea I have no experience or equipment for.

I love my job. I really do. But the industry is killing me. I've had submissions out for almost 2 years, for over a year, for nearly a year, with a few rejections but mostly just no response. I know editors, agents, everybody in the industry, are backed up, trying to do too much with too little.

This kinda mirrors my thoughts on the matter, and an issue that I do genuinely think is killing us: right now we treat the first person to DO SOMETHING about a problem as the cause of the problem, which disincentivizes actually giving a fuck about anything.

The fact that J.K. Rowling successfully bullied Amnesty International into taking down a report that accurately called out her attack on trans people, especially trans women, is so repulsive and such a display of the power of her money, and her choice to put her vast fortune behind persecution.

As it happens, long before I was a novelist I was writing humor columns and editing an online humor area for AOL (this was rather a while ago), so it's not entirely wrong to say I am a humorist who writes science fiction novels, many of which are funny, so that previous experience certainly helped.

#booksky! Have you SEEN the cover for my upcoming THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK-MAN? I tell you, it must be seen to be believed! #ParanormalRomance #Romancelandia #PulpFiction Many thanks to @trashmancer.bsky.social & @fringe-element.net for making my VISION a reality! www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

The truly incredible cover to CE Murphy's upcoming pulpy paranormal romance novel, THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK MAN, portrays a red-headed woman scientist in a lime green dress beneath a lab coat. She is holding a vial of glowing green goo as an enormous half-man, half-shark, well, SHARK-MAN clutches her to his tremendous chest, her ample bosoms pressing up against his own ample bosoms. He is ginormous. He is tattooed. He is half dressed. She looks lustful. He leers. A laboratory surrounds them. Her thigh curves around his. It's simply incredible.

The image is treated to look like a battered old paperback. The text above them, reading THE SEDUCTION OF SHARK-MAN, is in lurid reds and yellows. A poster to one side cries, "THEIR FORBIDDEN LOVE DEFIED SCIENCE!" The author byline reads "An exciting new romance from C.E. Murphy writing as MURPHY LAWLESS."

It is simply incredible. I would say there are no words, but I've just used 200 of them to describe this.

And Redeemer by C.E. Murphy, which I couldn't have loved more! I love the concept, I love the execution, I love the characters. I'm one who thinks I wouldn't have wanted to leave my factory job after the war, so it's nice to have a book from that perspective. How did I miss this, I LOVE her work!

The cover for Redeemer by C. E. Murphy. It's designed to look like an old paperback book that's been read and loved until the corners have curled up. The design is in the style of a WWII propaganda poster but also a little like a 40s pulp cover, with a white woman who is clearly Rosie-the-Riveter-coded looking at the viewer, wearing a victory roll in her brown hair, a red head scarf, and a denim shirt with the sleeves rolled up. She holds a sword in her right hand with the blade resting on her shoulder (good way to lose an arm), and with screaming vampire mouths reflecting in the blade. The background is old-paper-cream, with hints at a falling down building and evil presences in the corners.
