"This book will make grown men cringe" well if that's the case why the fuck aren't I cringing?! Anyway I didn't even flinch while reading it, but I did have a big chuckle the entire time reading it because of the stupidity of the stories & the writing is pretty good. Apparently this book is so disturbing and disgusting that people fainted at a live reading of it and others literally vomited their guts up. I was sent this book by a friend who knows I have a warped sense of humor. ** This short story is an excerpt from the novel Haunted**
His next novel, Beautiful You, is due out in October 2014.
The best stories are currently set to be published in Burnt Tongues, a forthcoming anthology, with an introduction written by Chuck himself. Then, in 2009, Chuck increased his involvement by committing to read and review a selection of fan-written stories each month. (all 36 of these essays can currently be found on The Cult's sister-site, ). Every month, a “Homework Assignment” would accompany the lesson, so Workshop members could apply what they had learned. These were 'How To' pieces, straight out of Chuck's personal bag of tricks, based on the tenants of minimalism he learned from Tom Spanbauer. In 2004, Chuck began submitting essays to on the craft of writing. In the years that followed, he continued to write, publishing the bestselling Rant, Snuff, Pygmy, Tell-All, a 'remix' of Invisible Monsters, Damned, and most recently, Doomed.Ĭhuck also enjoys giving back to his fans, and teaching the art of storytelling has been an important part of that. While on the road in support of Diary, Chuck began reading a short story entitled 'Guts,' which would eventually become part of the novel Haunted. Diary and the non-fiction guide to Portland, Fugitives and Refugees, were released in 2003. Chuck credits writing Lullaby with helping him cope with the tragic death of his father. Chuck’s work has always been infused with personal experience, and his next novel, Lullaby, was no exception. Choke, published in 2001, became Chuck’s first New York Times bestseller. Chuck put out two novels in 1999, Survivor and Invisible Monsters. The film’s popularity drove sales of the novel. The adaptation of Fight Club was a flop at the box office, but achieved cult status on DVD. Written in stolen moments under truck chassis and on park benches to a soundtrack of The Downward Spiral and Pablo Honey, Fight Club came into existence.
