Book Trailers? (1 Viewer)

[VALDEZ]

Howdy, y'all!

I was wanting to see if anyone knew of any book trailers that are out there of good books. Most of the stuff I've been finding is just animations or pictures with excerpts being read, but has anyone made one that looks like a movie trailer? I'm hard pressed to find any.

Also any recommendations for hard-hitting, young writers, that are really putting down powerful stuff? Cause I don't know where to even begin looking. I just keep coming across young-adult stuff. I'm looking for something more like, Bukowski, but from a modern writer.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hosho McCreesh had some cool trailers for the last book that he did on Artistically Declined Press.

This young cat is pretty powerful, and what he's got here looks like a real movie trailer. Doesn't get much better.

Didn't see that coming...was actually a bit disturbed and upset by it at first. Now I can't stop watching it. He's just that compelling.

Thanks man. Hosho McCreesh is fuckin bad ass!

And Jordan, I don't have a Cadillac or any car.
The snake tattoo is on my stomach, not my chest.
And I don't know where you got wife beater from. I'm not wearing anything beneath the collared shirt.

Thanks for the input though! Happy to be back!
