Well, “Holland Graham” aka JoeyG aka Joseph Holland aka Mr. Graham wrote a weird book and wants you to look at it!
Hey! It’s been a whole year since our last update, so I guess it’s time for one. We are currently in ENDLESS distribution discussions with many folks about what to do with SOMEONE DIES! But if all else fails we are going to put it out ourselves in September. I promise, it will see the light of day. We are also going to attempt a small texas film-tour (of Houston, Austin, Dallas) so, stay tuned as we finally put out a movie we shot 4 f***** years ago.
BOOK NEWS!
Speaking of things that began years and years ago, Joey completed his “covid novel” and will be putting it out on Kindle/Amazon on 8/5/25!
HUGE.
But also HUGE…he is looking for ARC (advanced-reader-copy) volunteers. So what does that mean to you?
IT MEANS I WOULD LIKE TO SEND YOU A FREE COPY.
Not sold? Here is what it is about:
In 2043, Pamela just wants to stop feeling like shit.
Enter U++, a new black-market gene therapy, filling her with promises of a genetically enhanced 'best self.' The horrifying discovery? Pam's biology has very different ideas about what constitutes self improvement...
As the grotesque transformation accelerates, her desperate husband Mark sees opportunity: why not document his wife's metamorphosis as an unscripted show? With their finances crashing, a new baby to support, and the future-Texas heat literally killing people, exploiting Pam's condition (through the art of reality TV) might be their only path to survival.
A savage satire of late-stage capitalism, reality television, and our obsession with self-improvement, "A Modern Growth" asks: when everything is content, what's left of being human?
This surreal tale of transmutation branches into territory both tender and terrifying, and will resonate with readers of Jeff VanderMeer and Ottessa Moshfegh while carving its own unique path through the landscape of contemporary horror.
(Yeah, I definitely just compared myself to those two authors. WHAT OF IT!)
But maybe now you’re in? Please?
Sign up and get a free digital copy. And then my hope is that you will read it and review it (somewhat kindly) when it is released in August. Ya know…if you want to (please).

(f)Art Update for SOMEONE DIES!
We flirted with new key art for release, but have decided to stick with our original art (although modified for a general audience) from artist and friend, Kara Mohr. So if you like art, just know we are true to you and…art.
Unless a distributor makes us change it…..anyway….
We love you
