DEAD IN HOLLYWOOD: BEHIND THE SIGN (ISSUE 20) OUT NOW!!!

I'm excited to announce my latest issue, Dead in Hollywood: Behind the Sign (Issue 20)!! Twenty Tinseltown Tinglers to keep the hairs on your arm up at night. This 10,000-word collector's companion took a while to compile but it finally makes me smile. The 40-page fanzine covers everyone from Peg Entwistle to Whitney Houston, Fatty Arbuckle to Alexis Arquette, Sam Cooke to Jon-Erik Hexum, Divine to RFK (to name a few).
