ANGEL
DUST APOCALYPSE IS here!!!
(May ’05)
“A dazzling writer. Seriously amazing short stories- and I love
short stories. Like the best of Tobias Wolff. While I read them, they made time
stand still. That's great.”

Meth-heads, man-made monsters, and
murderous Neo-Nazis. Blissed out club kids dying at the
speed of sound. The un-dead and the very soon-to-be-dead. They’re all here, trying to claw their way
free.
From the
radioactive streets of a war-scarred future, where the nuclear bombs have
become self-aware, to the fallow fields of

devious, laugh-out-loud sick, and shockingly smart…,” “Angel

SIREN
PROMISED IS NOW AVAILABLE!!! (June ’05)
"Using Alan M. Clark's gorgeously
dark fantastique artwork to springboard the lush, compelling, often raw
storyline forward, Johnson and Clark have created a unique literary atmosphere
full of dread and wonder. This is a synergistic fusion of major talents that
seethes with the black, beautiful energy of nightmares made real."

Angie Smith and Curtis Loew are having dreams they can’t shake. At the heart of
each is Angie’s daughter, Kaya. Angie’s dreams end in
death, the spreading of hand-shaped bruises across her daughter’s throat.
Curtis’ dreams end in something else, something closer to obsession than love.
Angie is worlds away, trying to
keep her drug-shattered mind from falling apart, traveling through an American
underbelly filled with inhuman shapes, dark whispers and old friends with empty
eyes.
Curtis is Kaya’s
new neighbor. He’s getting closer to her, and her mentally unstable
grandmother, Colleen. He’s had families before, but he’d always made mistakes. Mistakes that led to new names, new towns. But this one
time, he swears, things will all work out. He’s got so much love to give.

Johnson answers the call to glory with his intimately insectoid
mini-epic of apocalypse, Extinction

be. Just like these times.”

You can
survive a nuclear blast.
All you need
is some luck, and maybe a customized business suit coated in cockroaches. It could work. At least that’s what Dean believed before the
bombs actually dropped and his suit led him to murder a Very Important Man at
the foot of a blackened obelisk.
Now D.C. is
looking awfully empty. Life on Earth is
pretty much coming to an end. All of
which leaves Dean with a single question-“What now?” The answer to that question will take him on
an uncanny voyage across a newly nuclear
Dean’s
bizarre adventures mark the last chronicle of human existence, the final entries
in our species’ own…
Extinction Journals
“Extinction Journals is like a
Twilight Zone episode made without Standards & Practices telling Serling he couldn't feature any human/insect love
scenes. Move over Chris Genoa- there's a new sexy genius in town.”
— Chris
Genoa, author of Foop!
“Johnson swirls just enough lucidity and
knowing, zombie-Vonnegut hilarity into his bizarro
fable of mutually assured delirium to make me question my own sanity. Until
science finds a cure for whatever ails this boy, we can only hope to bask in
the cool plutonium glow of his weaponized mind... and
start collecting cockroaches.”
— Cody Goodfellow,
author of Radiant Dawn and Ravenous Dusk

"Elegant, erudite and strange, TEL:Stories is a remarkable anthology, containing much
to enchant, perplex and terrify."
—Liz
Williams, author of Snake Agent
“In some cases, the style is challenging
enough that the reader is likely to experience an ‘A-ha’ moment when, well into
the story, the style's role in the fiction as a whole is suddenly understood.
Jeremy Robert Johnson’s ‘Last Thoughts Drifting Down,’ exemplifies this
approach, gradually revealing the narrator's identity to powerful effect.”
