  • Copies at StokerCon. Wrath deserves a Stoker and HWA is working harder to be more inclusive of African-American authors, so we are going to hit it hard with that crowd.  
  • Reach out to mainstream media sites. Wrath is a very interesting person. Multifaceted; being a horror writer, fighter, and gym owner. Such as men’s magazines, Publisher’s weekly, and bigger name horror magazines. 

The heavyweight of hardcore horror returns with ten hard hitting new short stories and seven brutal epic poems exploring the darkest soul of humanity and the cruelty of life without pulling punches. Wrath James White turns his unflinching eye upon the gruesome, the violent, the tragic, and the erotic.

“Wrath James White is the premiere author of hardcore horror. Period.”  - Edward Lee, author of The Big Head and Header 

 "Some of the ballsiest, most visceral fiction being written by anyone today." - Thomas Tessier, author of Nightwalkers and Wicked Things

 "Wrath James White has more to say than many of his contemporaries, and says it more eloquently. “ - Poppy Z. Brite, author of Lost Souls and Exquisite Corpse 

 “Without apologies, White tears through your emotions from sympathy to hate, humor to shock, blending everyday language and poetic imagery as his words wrap around your mind and cause you to pause and appreciate them…” - HorrorWeb 

 “If Wrath doesn’t make you cringe, then you must be riding in the wrong end of a hearse.” - Jack Ketchum, author of The Girl Next Door and Red 

 “Wrath is a warrior. He comes at you on the written page with the intent to overpower you, yet he rarely overwhelms. This carnage has purpose. There's little over-indulgence. His over-the-top cathartic bloodbaths are seldom pointless. Put bluntly, he isn't just going for the gross-out. Wrath is a philosopher, and he loves to flaunt his technique and sense of limitless ethics in each of his tales. He has wit and intelligence and utter ruthlessness…” - Cemetery Dance Review
