Constance Ann Fitzgerald is a smart lady who wields a mean pen. Her first book, Trashland A Go-Go, is beloved by readers, reviewers and me.

An outtake from this interview was posted at Bizarro Central yesterday.

Coco, the heroine of Trashland a Go-Go has a pseudo sidekick in Rudy the fly. Would you tell us about your awesome sidekick, real or imagined?

I don’t think I have a sidekick. If I could design one it would probably be a lot like Brian from Family Guy– Snuggly, dog-like, sarcastic, intelligent with a taste for booze. But he/she should probably look like that dog Boo. http://www.boothedog.net/gallery-of-boo/ I’m kind of in love with his fuzzy face.

But I’d settle for a robot. Or Data from Star Trek: TNG.

What is Rudy’s favorite pornographic magazine and why?

What do you get when you mix Alice in Wonderland with an incredibly strange acid trip at a nudie bar, followed by a late night screening of every weirdo b-grade cult movie you’ve ever seen? You get the phenomenal first effort of Constance Ann Fitzgerald, Trashland A Go-Go… and a huge case of envy.

Coco takes off her clothes for a living, until some nasty little bitch kills her while she’s dancing. Thrown in the dumpster by her sleazebag boss, Coco awakens in a land of trash. With her new friend, Rudy (a dying fly), and her knight in garbage armor, the undead dancer tries to find her way home. But first she must escape from the evil Queen of this trashscape: a jealous and insane Ruler of Refuse who has an intense fear of flies. With hints of The Matrix and The Whiz, this heady trip…

The 2011-2012 NBAS is taking over Dreadful Tales for NINE DAYS!

Mr. Dreadful's avatarDreadful Tales

Over the past 3 weeks, I’ve read no less than 12 of the most insanely off-the-wall books I’ve ever seen. That’s a lot to digest in such a short amount of time – approximately something like 1200 (or more) pages of the weirdest shit you’ve ever laid your eyes on. And that’s also on top of the books I’ve checked out in the mean-time, and the 100 years of Horror articles.

And sleeping.

And eating.

Not books… eating food.

Though… I could eat books…

Never mind. Eating books is a bad idea right now.

Especially after the announcement I’m about to make, and mostly cause I’m nervous about this.

What’s the announcement? Well, I’m sure you can see that the site has taken on a bit of a… different… look today.

That’s because we’re trying something different with our design (which will be ongoing for a little while) and celebrating
