Hey! I just finished Dweller. I loved it! I would have liked a happier ending of course lol. I haven’t read anything like that before, great stuff. I have also read Pressure and that was great too. I live in Riverview, nice to know we have a great author in the area. Keep up the good work and I will continue to read it. In the meantime I plan on getting some of your other stuff I am sure I won’t be disappointed.

Just finished Dweller and it is one of the best books I’ve read in quite a while. I loved it!! I’m a member of the Horror Book Club and get 2 books a month and can say that this is about the best book I’ve got from them in quite some time. It was a page turner and there was absolutely no waste of words in it. I’m looking forward to the next one and will be reading more books written by Jeff Strand. I give Dweller an A++.

Thanks, Rue! Wow…my teachers never gave me A++!

Mr. Strand,
I was in Borders today when I came across your novel “Dweller”. It wasn’t the name that caught my attention but the cover made me reach for the book and read the description. Maybe it was the journey of how the outcast became friends with the monster that hooked me (I read it in three hours) but I really enjoyed this book. The ending was sad, I cried and I loved it.

Hi Jeff, we’ll see if you see this instead of me using that silly thing called email. Love your books, read everything I can get my hands on, including Disposal, the Mayhem series, Pressure, Dweller, Benjamins Parasite, Wolf Hunt, well, you get the idea. Just wanted to pass along a note that you’re an awesome author, and that you should either do appearances sometime in Seattle (hint hint, and I’ll even make it sunny for you), or go to the World Horror Convention in Texas, it’d be awesome to finally meet the man behind the madness!
December 1, 2010 at 9:13 am
Thanks, Kyle! The last time I was in Seattle it was cold, cold, cold, so the fact that you can control the weather is a definite selling point. Though I’m definitely going to the Bram Stoker Awards banquet in Long Island next year, the World Horror Convention is not yet a guarantee. I’m HOPING to go, and if I end up doing a second convention in 2011 it’ll be that one, but we shall see…
December 1, 2010 at 9:40 pm
That’d be awesome if you made it! Well, you always know you have a fan up here in the Northwest, regardless
December 2, 2010 at 2:57 pm
Awesome. If I’m ever in the Northwest and need a place to stay for a few months, I’ll be at your front porch!
December 2, 2010 at 9:26 pm
Sure, why not, lol, sounds like a plan!

It’s a nightmare trying to start writing when my style as been so similar since at least a decade ago. I have proof dammit. The real proof however will come when I best you, T. Pratchett and F.P.W (ok ok, and Joe Konrath just to keep feelings from being hurt) in a single novel, which is nearing completion (read: 6 mo to 2 or 3 years) will literally cause kindles to bleed out battery acid in the night and you, my awesome author, to hang yourself from a birdhouse. (the kind with tall poles, otherwise it doesn’t make that much sense… also, hope you can climb) -SD Reynolds

And I’ll admit it, I stole the single character through multiple POV/Chapters from the ant rodeo scene from Mandibles.

Get rich off of shitty authors. Jeff Strand sells himself through quality, not promotions, scams and gimmicks.

Good Evening Jeff!
I’m currently working on my B.A w/a concentration in creative writing which I hope will eventually lead to my M.F.A degree in creative writing. My plan is to teach writing at the community college level, however if that plan falls through, would you be willing to offer any tips to a “fledgling” author? Also, I probably already know the answer to this, but would you be willing to read the first two pages of my manuscript and let me know what you think? I look forward to reading more of your work! Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Matthew

Wow. Wow, wow, wow. Due to the fact the Kindle versions of the Andrew Mayhem series were not available until recently I hadn’t been able to acquire them. (If I mail order items I go insane refreshing shipping info) so I ended up reading all four in a two day span last weekend while “primitive camping” (bless the basic kindle battery life)
I’ve read everything available without paying a grand for a photocopied fanzine or outright stealing Jeff’s books and doing the whole Mayhem series at once with no distractions? My god.Shock and child-like awe.
The only compliment that I can pay you is laying my head down on the chopping block and letting you go at it. I hope you realize sick, twisted puppies (my kids, kids, kids) will still be enjoying your bad-ass literature long after both you and I are worm food.
Thanks for an amazing weekend in nature, ignoring nature in lieu of your books,
-Scott “Still Not F**king Published but Happy to Still be Writing” Reynolds

Thanks, Scott! Now you’ve got me in the mood to go primitive camping with my Kindle…although I’ll probably read somebody else’s books instead of the Mayhem series…

The funniest thing i have read was the scene where the toilet was blocked, from the first appearance of Headhunter. I have never laughed so long and hard in my life. Thank you for some really great books.

Thanks, Joe! There is nothing more horrifying than flushing a toilet and having the water rise instead of fall.
