PRIESTESS Contest!
013 years ago
“Laugh all you want, motherf**kers.
You’re forgetting one thing. Or rather, three things.
Three…
little…
words… “
— from Red Monolith Frenzy Book 1 of the Blackstone series by Justine G
Yes, that Triple-Word of Power sure lets our Justine get away with a lot in the Blackstone series! And she’s never hinted at the actual words, nope, not anywhere in the text, and never in our personal interactions with her either. Which, to be completely honest, we’re rather thankful for, all things considered. As primal ur-spells go, the Triple-Word is a doozy!
Yeah, whatever those dread phonemes are, she’s keeping them to herself. Of course, that doesn’t mean we can’t hold a little contest for Migraineers in advance of the release of PRIESTESS (Blackstone Volume One) next FRIDAY the 13th!
CAN YOU GUESS THE TRIPLE-WORD OF POWER?
Guess correctly and win a copy of PRIESTESS and one other MMP title of your choice! Hint: it’s seven syllables in total, and it’s a classic.
Get your guesses in to us by email (info@martianmigrainepress.com) OR follow us on Twitter @MartianMigraine and tweet your guess to us there OR like Martian Migraine Press on Facebook and post your answer to our wall. Justine will view all entries and select the lucky boys, girls, and assorted entities who get it right. While we try not to look on, because some things? Some things you can’t unsee.
However you do it, just do it, and do it BEFORE THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 13! Because that’s when the contest closes. All correct guesses will receive their prize just in time to start reading on Friday the 13th!
PRIESTESS Cover Reveal with Art by Jim Pavelec
013 years ago
We’re releasing the first volume of Justine Geoffrey‘s collected Blackstone Erotica series, PRIESTESS, on Friday September 13, but we’re so tingly in our design-nethers about the cover that we’re going to give all you Migraineers (that’s what we’re calling MMP readers now, take note!) a little preview! Graphic design by the MMP DesignDroid5000 (as per usual) and artwork by none other than Jim Pavelek, whose gorgeous grotesques have graced the interiors of many a gaming manual, covers of Dark Horse Comics Eerie title, and his own Hymns and Wretched Offerings to the Golden Ones. We think this piece captures the Blackstone story at a crucial moment and drops hints of the monstrously arousing things yet to come!
PRIESTESS will contain both full Blackstone novellas, Red Monolith Frenzy and Green Fever Dream, as well as both of the Blackstone SUMMONINGS shorts, Summonings: Anicka and Kamil and Summonings: Yvette’s Interview … AND excerpts from Blackstone Book 3 Yellow Sign Bound and Justine’s sci-fi gonzo erotica novella, Orgy in the Valley of the Lust Larvae … PLUS a special essay on the weird-erotica writing experience from the lady herself! If it were a printed tome, your bedside table would collapse beneath the weight of it! But it’s not: only densely packed and ordered electrons and those, friends, are made of light. Or something like it. It’s not heavy, is what we’re saying.
PRIESTESS (Blackstone Volume 1)

AVAILABLE in all e-reader formats

‘When The Stars Are Right’ TOC Announced
013 years ago
Our author S R Jones has finalized the Table of Contents for his upcoming non-fiction work, When The Stars Are Right: Towards An Authentic R’lyehian Spirituality, and so this morning we present it to you, our discerning and classy Migraineers, in all its perplexing and evocative tease. With a Foreword by Jordan Stratford and interior illos by Michael Lee Macdonald, this book (which we’re producing in our usual e-formats AND the hoary old medium of *gasp* PRINT!) will offer to the reader an interpretation of Lovecraft’s Mythos not yet seen. Serious gnostic text? Crank fundamentalist screed? Psychedelic auto-ethnography? YOU DECIDE. Whatever it is, we hope and plan to have it ready by Christmas time, so you can get your festival on right!
Please pepper us with questions and/or concerns in the comments, and if you’d like to tweet about When The Stars Are Right we encourage you to use the hashtag #keepinitrlyeh And, as long as you’re on Twitter, follow @Cthulhusattva, where Jones is posting excerpts from the work as it is completed.
