FAQ
WEB STORE FAQ:
Q: Why does the book cost $20 when paperbacks at barnes and noble cost around 12 or 15 bucks?
A: Publishers order those books in tens of thousand or sometimes much more, making bulk printing costs very, very low. the markup price on such a book is actually much higher than mine. i have my books printed in very small quantities making the cost per book substantially higher, meaning i have to sell them for more.
Q: Why is shipping 4 dollars? It doesn’t cost that much to mail a book.
A: You’re paying for shipping and handling meaning not only postage fees, but packaging as well.
Q: just how “mature” does a reader have to be? can my young child or sibling read the book?
A: if you’re not sure, read it yourself first. both novels have what i believe is important message and spiritual center, but they go through some very unflinchingly dark and disturbing places on the way. if you’re squeamish, stick with the kid’s book.

I have just finished reading and thoroughly enjoyed The Spinal Cord Perception. Is there a sequel to look forward to in the future?
I just got an ebook reader and was noticing that the black meat was available as a pdf. And I was wandering if that would be something that you would consider doing for “The Spinal Cord Perception” and “NEVADA”? Personally I would be willing to pay full price (minus shipping) for the convenience of having these works available in this form factor. Also any word on when The Spinal Cord audiobook will be ready?
which of your books are still available and where can I find them? I saw on wikipedia that you have written 6 and a couple comic books.
Please reprint NEVADA!!!!
My brother is super hard to shop for but I really want to get him this book for his birthday. He loved The Spinal Cord Perception. But when I found out Joshua S. Porter was Josh Dies of Showbread I immediately knew why he wanted the books so badly, and I knew I wanted to read them too. Josh Dies is a genius and I love how he incorporates Christ in such hard hitting ways in the music and I’m sure also in his novels. So please reprint NEVADA both for him and for me, and I’m sure a lot of other people!
I bought The Spinal Cord Perception (and finished it c: ) and An Edict of Worms.
Waiting on the latter until NEVADA is reprinted!
I hope it will be available soon?
