"I found many autism books written by autism moms and medical professionals, but not a lot written by autism dads," said Errera. "I decided to write one myself...but as I sifted through the autism columns I've written since my son's diagnosis in 2003, I realized the first draft was already done!" These columns are revised and updated in Autism Dad, along with three new essays and extensive behind-the-scenes notes that reveal the personal struggles and triumphs of raising a special-needs child. Autism Dad: Adventures in Raising An Autistic Son, Essays by Rob Errera is available in print and digital formats wherever ebooks are sold online.

"Exceptional and unique...this story will suck you in!" Armand Rosamilia, author of Keyport Cthulu and the Dying Days series. "Move over Lazarus and Frankenstein's Monster - long live The Mud Man!" Tim Meyer, author of Enlightenment and Sharkwater Beach. On November 8, 2016, a quiet law office in rural New Jersey was savagely attacked by a "Man of Stone." Ten people were brutally mutilated and murdered, the killer was never caught, and the legend of the Franz Rock Monster was born.

Inspired by Frankenstein, folklore, and media freakshows, The Mud Man explores what it means to be human, the transformative power of grief, and the fine line between man and monster.

Some songs stick in your head. Others consume your soul. A song called "Hangman's Jam" opens the doorway between dimensions. But what nightmarish monstrosities lurk beyond the threshold, waiting to break on through? Bar band bassist Bobby Marks rides this strange tune to super stardom, but finds his newfound responsibilities as a husband and father clash with a surreal world of addiction and overdoses, Internet sex scandals, disappearing band members, on-stage deaths, studio poltergeists, and cosmic monsters. Some songs demand sacrifice, and Hangman's Jam is a symphony of murder and madness. Hangman's Jam is another Palomino Tale from Rob Errera, author of Sensual Nightmares: Tales From The Palomino, Vol. 1. Hangman's Jam blends the fiction of H.P. Lovecraft with the equally colorful mythos of rock music. The novel falls into a similar genre as Joe Hill's Heart Shaped Box and Gary Braunbeck's musical fiction, a combination of James Blish's Black Easter and Nikki Sixx's autobiography. Fans of music, mystery, and classic horror will find the unearthly melody of Hangman's Jam hauntingly familiar.
