This is douggoodman.net, for the writer/handler Doug Goodman.  Here I've caught as many of my publications as possible, and a few snippets from my volunteer work as a human remains dog handler.  Thanks for visiting!

Picked up a new German Shepherd puppy.  She weighs 7 pounds and is 8 weeks old.  On December 14, 2009, we decided to name her "Rider."

Exactly 10 days later, Voodoo passed away.  She got a severe case of hookworms and never recovered.

Cthulhu Unbound, Volume 1, is now available through Amazon.com.

February 24, 2009
Cthulhu Unbound, Volume 1 has been delayed due to ice storms.  Instead of a February debut, the anthology will come out March 30.  I hope it's good luck that the anthology is released on my birthday...

Murky Depths came in the mail today, courtesy of "Royal Air."  This is my first time reading MD, and I was very impressed.  The editing crew has assembled some great stories, like "Scratch" and "The Longest Road in the Universe," but they have also created a unique visual experience to enhance the stories.  From the comic strip "A Brief History of Dogfighting" to the numerous art pieces that coincide with the stories, this is an amazing zine.

Murky Depths is now available.  Orders can be made through the web store.

"Haruspex" has been accepted to Murky Depths.  It will appear in Issue 7 (~March 2009).

"Squirm" should be up now at The Edge of Propinquity.  This personal story was obviously one part storytelling and two parts self-inflicted torture.  Writing it helped me work through a lot of demons, though, and I am glad I did it.  To anybody who reads it, be forewarned, though.  It gets pretty gruesome at parts.

I've received notice that John Sunseri's Cross-Genre Cthulhu anthology will be called "Cthulhu Unbound."  First, "Horrors Beyond," and now "Cthulhu Unbound."  I like the sound of it.  An updated TOC with "Hellstone and Brimfire" is located here.  Note:  My story is currently accredited to John Goodman.  That should be cleared up soon...

March 1, 2008
"Squirm" has been purchased by The Edge of Propinquity.  It will be coming out in April.

February 10, 2008
"Hellstone and Brimfire" has been accepted to John Sunseri's Cross-Genre Cthulhu anthology.  "Hellstone and Brimfire" was a fun weird western to write, and one of those things that just comes out of you.  It is a story of misunderstanding and Cthulhu (or course).

February 2008
Just got news that "Slaying Dragons" will appear in the October issue of Beyond Centauri.   This story came to me when I used to do endurance running.  Unfortunately, I've spent too much time sitting around and writing and not enough time walking/jogging/running (though the purchase of a Labrador Retriever has added a daily walk.)

January 2008
Check out A Fly in Amber for my story "Hoops." 

December 2007
A Fly in Amber has picked up my flash fiction piece "Hoops" for their January 2008 issue.  "Hoops" will be the feature story. 

November 2007
Awesome news!  Elder Signs Press will be running a second print run of the original Horrors Beyond anthology.
