Dirty Deeds – Book Tour And Giveaway
Posted in Armand Rosamilia, Dirty Deeds, giveaway, Giveaways on April 21, 2020 by Armand RosamiliaArmand Rosamilia on Patreon – Updated!
Posted in #amwriting, Arm Cast Podcast, Armand Rosamilia, fiction, giveaway, Giveaways, Patreon, personal with tags armand rosamilia, giveaway, Patreon, writing on July 17, 2016 by Armand RosamiliaI’m on Patreon. I started it not to become rich (but I won’t complain if I do) but to find another outlet for my writing and creativity. To that end I post a continuing Dying Days YA novella with a new chapter the beginning of each month. I have no idea when it will end. The fun is just writing another chapter and seeing where it goes. Hell, it might end up becoming a Dying Days YA epic novel before I’m done. That’s the fun of Patreon for me.
The other thing I like to do is post short stories many readers have not seen. Stuff sitting around collecting dust I find. And after writing for most of my life, I have quite a few. I’d have more if I hadn’t lost them on floppy disks and inside a word processor and all the other antiquated technology over the years. It allows me to share a few things with the readers who are definitely interested in what I’ve written or will be writing.
Yes, I get money for it. Mostly you donate $1 and you get to read anything I post. Simple as that. I do a weekly update with all of my writing and you get to see what I’m currently working on. You also get some cool stuff if you pledge more, too:
Pledge $1 per month
You get exclusive content like my weekly update for what I am writing as well as a new first draft chapter for my Dying Days YA novella before anyone else reads them as well as either an out of print or new short story each month or a new novel I’m working on chapter by chapter. As well I’ll be posting videos of random things I shoot like story readings, answering questions or general nonsense.
Pledge $5 per month
Besides all of the above you get a shout-out on my Arm Cast: Dead Sexy Horror Podcast during the month as a very cool person!
Pledge $10 per month
Besides all of the other rewards you’ll receive a FREE audiobook from me of your choice! Listen to other people read the words I wrote!
Thanks in advance for all of the support!

Authors Supporting Our Troops – January 2015 Totals #ASOT2015
Posted in Armand Rosamilia, ASOT2014, ASOT2015, authors, giveaway, Giveaways on February 1, 2015 by Armand Rosamilia
Alrighty then… the first month of the 2015 version of the event is over, and I gotta tell ya… it went way smoother than last year for me!
There were no more giant piles of books I then had to wade through and box up for the soldiers. After I opened and logged each shipment in, I was able to take a picture of the books, post them on Facebook and then they went right into boxes ready to ship to the soldiers. I made sure each box had a wide assortment of books from all genres. But I can’t take any of the credit because Special Gal told me the right way to do this…
So… how did we do so far?
We had 117 authors/shipments arrive in the month
947 author-signed books
That’s an average of 8 books per author signed and donated… amazing!
At this rate we’ll beat our goal of 3,500 author-signed books for this year’s event, not including any books coming after the ‘official’ close date of May 1st (although I will be collecting books all year, so don’t worry)
Now, which States had the coolest authors sending us books?
This is not really all that scientific and I simply made note of who the author was and what State the package was shipped from when I recorded all of this along with how many books were involved. This is by author and not by how many books because that would be too much work and this is for fun. I don’t really need more work piled on for the event, either…
1. California – 15 authors!
2. Florida – 10 authors!
3. Texas – 7 authors!
4. North Carolina – 6 authors!
5. Wisconsin – 5 authors!
I’m not going to point out the 16 of 50 States that didn’t have an author representing it so far, because that wouldn’t be fair… but I hope in the coming weeks a few more are checked off the list!
I will be getting in touch via Facebook to several of the authors from Cali to get their addresses and send them an #ASOT2015 bumper sticker if they’d like them.
I also want to thank everyone for the donations towards the huge shipping bill… we are well ahead of where we need to be for it. I would suggest everyone interested in donating please buy a shirt, so you have something cool to wear around and help spread the word! A couple of bucks from each sale goes to the shipping but, again, you get something you can be proud of and it helps spread the word when you post a picture of yourself in it!

7 Mail Days Into #ASOT2015
Posted in Armand Rosamilia, ASOT2014, ASOT2015, authors, giveaway, Giveaways with tags armand rosamilia, ASOT2015, military, soldier on January 9, 2015 by Armand Rosamilia
This is going to be a short but fun post from me. After the first 7 official mailing days of Authors Supporting Our Troops 2015 I can relate the following:
1. The incoming and outgoing boxes are heavy and I’m out of shape
2. We’ve received 286 books from 35 boxes mailed from authors, making it an average of 8.2 books per box
3. So far, Texas leads the way with 5 authors sending books, with Florida and Kentucky tied for second place with 3 each. Five different States are tied for third with 2 each. (I’m not going to kill myself with these numbers or worry about different authors in each box or anything else that makes this complicated… this is for fun to let everyone know who is helping out)
4. At the end of the month I’ll tally up which State had the most authors sending in boxes (multiple shipments from the same author won’t count) and I’ll send everyone from that State a free #ASOT2015 bumper sticker. How’s that sound? We’ll do it every month until May, so there will be four chances to win and I’ll reset it each month and then maybe do a bigger last win at the end for a grand total… I’m just tossing ideas out right now, so don’t mind me.
5. I am amazed and humbled by all the support so far for the event. We’ll have a ton of books to send to soldiers, but it means we’ll also need help with the shipping costs via donations and buying t-shirts this year again. And, we’ll need quite a few soldiers in remote areas of the world to send the books to, as well…

Authors Supporting Our Troops – Soldiers Needed
Posted in Armand Rosamilia, ASOT2014, giveaway, Giveaways with tags ASOT2014, ASOT2015, authors, military, troops on November 11, 2014 by Armand Rosamilia
I am amazed at all of the authors asking the information about donating signed books to the Authors Supporting Our Troops event, as well as non-authors wanting to donate money to help with the massive shipping costs. You can find out everything you need to know Here.
With the goal of 3,000 author-signed books shipped in 2015, the only part of the equation I’m a little worried about is actual soldiers to send books to.
This is where you hopefully come in and help…
Are you a family member of someone in the military (any branch) or friends with someone who is currently overseas in a remote area? We’d love to make contact with you and send over a couple of boxes of books so they can share them with their unit. I’m not interested in a company that does this or a random person, i want to actually touch people you know…
The greatest thing for me is seeing the pictures of the soldiers opening the boxes and taking out the books. It makes all the hours spent receiving, opening, taking pictures of, sorting and packaging the thousands of books worth it for us.
All I need is the soldier’s name and address and the basic dates of when they’ll be stationed overseas and where. That’s it. Contact me at armandrosamilia@gmail.com and we can talk.
* * * * *
For the rest of today I’m going to run a mini-contest… I want to build up the followers on the Authors Supporting Our Troops Facebook page, so I’d love some help…
Anyone sharing the group on your Facebook page and letting people know what we’re trying to accomplish will get a free #ASOT2014 sticker (shown) mailed to them. Also, random envelopes will contain other cool stuff (maybe bookmarks, coupon codes for free audiobooks and/or eBooks,etc.) and a lucky random winner will also get signed print books from me as well… how does that sound?
If you share the link to the group and say something about it, all you have to do is then PM me your physical address and I’ll begin sending out the thank-you envelopes until I run out of stickers (I think we have about 50 left, so hurry up!)
As always, thank you for the support! And we’re always looking for more soldiers in remote areas to send boxes of books to as well!

Guest Post: John F.D. Taff
Posted in Armand Rosamilia, authors, fiction, giveaway, Giveaways, guest blog, horror on October 13, 2014 by Armand Rosamilia
First off, thanks to Armand for offering to let me do this guest blog. I’m a big fan, so this is a spectacular opportunity.Second, my latest book, a five-novella collection entitled The End in All Beginnings, is out now from Grey Matter Press. It’s at Amazon and all the usual places, in all the usual formats.
The End in All Beginnings is a disturbing trip through the ages in five novellas exploring the painful horrors of life, love and loss. Unlimited by the boundaries of time or space, Death will always be with you. Stealing all your hold dear, breaking the heart in your chest, leaving you with the only thing left–your memories.
Here’s what people are saying about The End in All Beginnings:
“Taff brings the pain in five damaged and disturbing tales of love gone horribly wrong. This collection is like a knife in the heart. Highly recommended!” – Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of CODE ZERO and FALL OF NIGHT
“Of the current breed of authors riding the wave of digital liberation, John Taff is a standout talent. Literary, affecting, chilling, and indicative of that old-school mentality meets new-school daring, you need look no further than this collection for evidence that not only is horror not dead, there are new proponents of the craft among us more than capable of giving it the jolt it needs to carry it into the future.” — Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Turtle Boy, Kin, and Jack & Jill.
“The End in All Beginnings is accomplished stuff, complex and heartfelt. There’s an attention to character and an access to feeling that’s very refreshing indeed. The best novella collection I’ve read in years.”–Bram Stoker-Award Winning Author Jack Ketchum.
So I’ve got a contest going right now. Interested? Sure you are! Would you like to be featured as a character in a horror story? Sure you do! Of course you’d like to be featured as a character in my upcoming epic horror novel (that’s not tongue in cheek, there folks!) The book is titled The Fearing and I’m working on it now, with an eye toward publication next year around this time.
I was thinking… “Gee, John, what could we (the royal ‘we,’ of course. I am the King of Pain, for goshsakes), offer to loyal readers?” “Well,” the opposite side of my brain answered, “How about the opportunity to be featured in an actual horror novel by an actual horror writer? You know, appear in a published novel with your own actual name, in a plot that certainly wouldn’t really actually ever happen to you. And then read about yourself (or at least a character liberally based on yourself) doing various plot-necessitated things, but managing to look cool and heroic and stuff while doing it. Maybe you can die. Maybe we’ll keep you alive. Who knows?”
What a frakkin’ awesome idea, both sides of my brain said.
So, we’re gonna do it. And what better way to decide who gets to be a character in this opus than by having a contest! A contest to make you, the reader, a ‘HORROR STAR!’
ENTERING THE ‘HORROR STAR’ CONTEST
How do you enter this contest, you may be wondering? Simple.
1). Buy my current release, The End in All Beginnings.
2). Read The End in All Beginnings, and hopefully enjoy it!
3). Review the collection, and post your review on Amazon before Oct. 31st, 2014. (I’m not trolling for a 5-star review here. Be honest. But, sheesh, five stars sure are nice. 😉 )
4). Post a link to your review in the comments section here on this post at my blog, or on the Grey Matter Press Facebook Page, and you will automatically be entered to win.
5.) Share your review on Twitter using #HORRORSTAR for even more chances to win.
WINNING THE ‘HORROR STAR’ CONTEST
Winners will be chosen by a Random Drawing held at the end of October. Once we receive at least 50 entries, we’ll do a straight-up random drawing for some spectacular prizes, the chief of which will be…
‘HORROR STAR’ PRIZES
1). Grand Prize. I will use your name as a character in my upcoming horror novel, The Fearing. It won’t be a major character, but it won’t be a throwaway, one-line character, either. Prior to creating the fictional you, I might ask a few questions to make sure to get some of the REAL you into the character. I promise that I will not use the character in a particularly horrid, demeaning or embarrassing way, but one in which I think you’d be thrilled to have featured in a novel. What’s The Fearing about? Well, it’s kind of an epic, apocalyptic horror novel, but with my own patented King of Pain twists. When will it be out? Well, probably sometime next year, around this time.
2). Runners-Up. Oh, and for some lucky runners up, I might also give away some signed things, too. And Grey Matter Press is pitching in with some of their own goodies as well. So, loot for all! Well, all winners at least.
DON’T HESITATE!
So what are you waiting for? How many authors offer you the chance to be directly involved in their novel by creating a character based solely on you?
Enter the ‘Horror Star’ Contest. Buy The End in All Beginnings today. Read the collection. Review it on Amazon. Post your review here or on theGrey Matter Press Facebook Page. Share your review on Twitter using #HORRORSTAR.
And who knows, I might even sweeten the pot if we get more than 50 entries. 75? 100? The sky’s the limit!*
*This isn’t entirely true. There is, in fact, a limit to my largesse, and it’s definitely before we reach the sky. But I promise it’ll be amazeballs!

“Dying Days 4” Contest – Be In The Book!
Posted in anthology, Armand Rosamilia, authors, dying days, fiction, florida, giveaway, Giveaways, horror, novella, writing, zombie with tags armand rosamilia, dying days, zombie, zombie fiction on February 10, 2014 by Armand Rosamilia
I talked about doing a contest for readers to be a part of Dying Days 4 and become a character in the book itself Here. The poll is now closed and we have a winning idea, but it wasn’t a landslide. In fact, all 3 ideas on the poll were pretty close…
So there will be TWO different ways for you to be picked to star in Dying Days 4…
1. Send me a cool pic of you holding any (or all) of the Dying Days books. It could be either Dying Days, Dying Days 2, Dying Days 3, Highway To Hell, Darlene Bobich: Zombie Killer, Still Dying, Still Dying 2, Dying Days: Origins, Dying Days: The Siege of European Village, Dying Days: Siege 2… You’ll automatically be entered in for a chance to star in it. AND… for every book in the picture I’ll give you another chance, as well as bonus entries for originality! Note: I will use the pictures as promotional items on my blog, Facebook page, etc.
2. Reviewing any of the above-mentioned Dying Days books will also get you a shot at being in the book. It doesn’t matter what your rating is, as long as it is on Amazon (and bonus chances for every other place like B&N and Goodreads you post it as well), and you’ll also get your name added for each and every review, so if you review all 10 books listed above and post them to Amazon, B&N and Goodreads, it gives you 30 chances to win! And I’ll be really happy, too…
Any questions? Too bad. it’s simple enough! Send pictures to me at armandrosamilia@gmail.com and I’ll be collecting them until April 1st, when I’ll make a decision or two…

Authors Supporting Our Troops

When you meet your idols sometimes they don’t live up to the hype. Sometimes they are grumpy and ornery and couldn’t care less about you. Such is definitely not the case when it comes to Joe McKinney. I met the man at World Horror Convention in New Orleans last year and he was even better in person than in my mind. Yes, I did the Fanboy thing at first but he ended up being a great guy with a genuine love of what he was doing and everything around him.
Why am I telling you this? Because when he asked me (and many other authors) to help him as he collected books from us to ship overseas to some of our troops, I jumped at the chance. And so did so many others. He was able to put quite a few books into the hands of our military overseas. I never forgot about it, and decided to do my own event this year, especially when I found out from Joe he didn’t have the same contact overseas.
But I did.
My girlfriend Shelly (Special Gal to those in the know) had a great contact she’s known for years, someone she considers her family. I’ve been lucky enough to meet him and he is quite impressive. He’ll be coming back to the States in late March and then shipping overseas, at which point he’ll be my contact for this book drive. But let Shelly give you more detail about him:
Shelly: “I met James about 8 years ago when he was 17, while working in a youth department of the church I was attending. He was a quiet young man living in a rough situation. I starting getting to know him and over the years he has become like a son to me. We got him through high school and he started working and then he started thinking about the military. I support him 110% and he has turned into a wonderful young man who celebrated his 25th birthday this past December. He refers to me as his godmom and I couldn’t be prouder of him if he were mine.”
He is currently a Private First Class serving at Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany but will deploy to Kuwait in April.
Here is the main idea behind everything…
I’ll be collecting fellow author’s books to send to our troops stationed in Kuwait in April. Interested in donating some of your books? The men and women of the Armed Forces love receiving signed books from authors to read and pass around while they’re over there! If you’re an author and want to help, join this Facebook page and then get in touch with Armand for the address to send your copies. Let’s do something positive for someone else!
I want to thank everyone who’ve already committed to helping with the event and are sending me packages so i can gather the books and box them for the troops.
Quite a few non-authors have asked how they can help… get in touch with me, I will gladly collect donations to offset the shipping costs from me as well as purchase more books from authors I know at cost so there will be more books in the boxes to ship.
At this time I am only interested in author-signed books to ship overseas. I think the troops will love the read and also knowing the actual author sent the books or the actual publisher. I’m not looking for your used books to donate or perishables or anything other than print books. This is not an eBook event, and not a forum for your political statements. It is simply to help those in the trenches who might want to read a book they can’t get their hands on right now.
Come and help out as an author or as a supporter!
Free Audiobook Contest
Posted in Armand Rosamilia, authors, death metal, dying days, fiction, giveaway, Giveaways, horror, personal, zombie on December 26, 2013 by Armand RosamiliaThat’s right, that’s right… I’m giving away 15 audiobooks to anyone interested!
Oh, there is a catch… (isn’t that always the way?)
I am in need (like every other author on the planet) of Reviews for ANY of my books. So… if you review a book I’ve put out on Amazon and it gets added to the reviews section on the eBook or print version, I will gladly give you a copy of one of three audiobooks:
Easy enough, right? Between today – Thursday December 26th 2013 – and whenever I get 15 reviews on ANYTHING I released (good review, bad review, it doesn’t matter – just as long as it is live on Amazon) and you let me know, I will gladly give you a code for a free copy.
But wait, there’s more!
If you are so inclined to review THREE different releases I will gladly give you THREE free coupons so you can have all THREE audiobooks… how does that sound?
Remember, Authors live and die on these reviews, so please give the gift of a review to your favorite author (or me) to end 2013 with a positive note!
Armand
