hi,

a good friend of mine introduced me to this genius of a writer and of course i've seen the fight club movie first. but i was a fan of norton and pitt before.

damn, being a chuck palahniuk addict like me must be like being addicted to heroin to junkies... already i have read fight club, survivor, invisible monsters, choke, lullaby, fugitives and refugees, stranger than fiction, haunted & rant, and now i'm like a junkie without heroin Wink

i cant wait for a new book, that should be snuff, right ? does anyone here have accurate news when it'll be out ?

greetings from germany,

shine

Willkommen!

That's about it for my German except: Wir gehen tanzen und trinken, ja?

I think it will be a bit of a wait for SNUFF. RANT still needs to be realeased in paperback. Smile

Cujo is a male.
As for Rant, it came out in Hardback in the US and large paperbcak in Europe. I must say the European cover was terrible.
Did you get your name from the Stephen King book The Shining? If you did I like you already.

Hello.
The best man at my wedding was German. His name is Patrick so if you see him say hello and punch him in the back of the head for me.

I owe him one and can't afford to fly over there.

Your an Indian and you live in Germany? How you like it over there? What Chuck P. book is your favorite so far? Are you full blooded Native American Indian?

@ labelleza : hello back Wink i think theres a 6 hours difference between germany and the states, so when its midnight here, its 6 in the evening there...

@ seanink : there are so many patricks in germany, you'd have to reveal his adress so i can punch him in the back of his head Wink

@ gman2065g : i was born here, my parents are both indian so it makes me a fullblood indian (from india, not native american), yeah i like it here in germany, racism things going on but not so much in the part where i live, anyway, in india i'd be off badder, my favourite chuck book ? i cant decide, dude. i love em all...

@ ladychaos : i'm from the southern part of india, called "kerala", but i was born and i live in germany.
