This Friday at 8pm UK time, The WCCS will go live with author Stephen J Golds. Stephen J Golds was born in London, U.K, but has lived in Japan for most of his adult life. He enjoys spending time with his daughters, reading books, traveling, boxing and listening to old Soul LPs. His novels are Say Goodbye When I’m Gone (Red Dog Press) Always the Dead (Close to the Bone) Poems for Ghosts in Empty Tenement Windows and Love Like Bleeding Out With an Empty Gun in Your Hand.

His latest release is the well rated Half-Empty Doorways and Other Injuries which was released in August this year.

Half-Empty Doorways and Other Injuries:
Poetry for the dead, the dying, and the ghosts. 45 illustrated poems collecting the best of Golds’ noir poetry from 2020 - 2022. Paper lanterns and petty crime. Whiskey bars and beach confessions. One-night stands and the childhoods that led to cheating, self-harm, and paranoia. From OCD and grief to benign inspirations like antiseptic cream and call-waiting, Stephen J. Golds examines life with a sigh only sometimes wistful. Before an urban Japanese backdrop, we ride w/ him amid subway delays and panic attacks, careening cars and horror movies.

Foreword by HLR, poetry features by BF Jones and David Cranmer.

"Stephen Golds writes Poetry, which is a hell of a lot more than what his more famous contemporaries ever seem to manage. It's honest-to-god poetry, as defined by Allan Ginsberg, the borderline-insane act of ‘making private words public.’ In this collection, he reveals himself to be a succinct and lyrical teller of truths, which itself has become a rare & controversial spectacle recently."

This episode promises to be fun, informative and interesting. We will be revealing the polls for the ChrisvChris book cover challenge and showcasing the covers for the second collection of books too.

We still want someone to introduce the show, someone's book to promote, and your questions sent to us as a voice recording or video. To submit or to ask questions, email TheWritingCommunityChatShow.@Gmail.Com
