With 'Snuff' out in stores now, and the story of Cassie Wright's legendary career 'climax' ready to explode all over the world... yet another trailer for one of her old movies has surfaced on the net!

This time around, it's for futuristic, alien spoof 'The Twilight Bone'!

Order Snuff Today!

Today is the big day!  Chuck Palahniuk's latest novel 'SNUFF' is now out!  Head out to your nearest bookstore today as soon as you can to purchase a copy!  Buying 'Snuff' the first week of its release is the only way to boost its numbers and propel it iinto the New York Times Best Seller List. 

If you prefer to buy it through Amazon, you'll help its sales rank there as well!  'Snuff' currently sits at #52!  It was at #67 this morning!  Let's get it even higher today, people!

Order 'Snuff' Today!

I'm also aware of the amount of reviews that have begun pouring in, so you have one you want to put on our radar, email me at Dennis@chuckpalahniuk.net with 'Snuff review' in the subject header.

Also, don't forget that our Snuff Tour Tshirts are now available!  read more »

SNUFF Tour Tshirts Are Here! and boy do they rock.  These are easily my favorite shirts we've ever made.  We made similar shirts last year for "Rant", and people gobbled them up and wore them to the live readings Chuck did.  Unfortunatley, this year we got stalled, and so the shirts won't be here until Monday, May 19th.  They will then begin shipping Tues and Wed (May 20th, 21st).  Mirka has already taken off both of those days.  The problem is, Chuck's actual Snuff tour begins on the 20th.  So people attending the first few dates will probably miss out on having one of these shirts to wear.

Update: Hey folks.  I spoke to Chuck this weekend and he assured me that he's already trying to reschedule an event for the New York fans.  He said this would probably occur towards the end of the summer / beginning of the Fall (to coincide with the new release date of 'Choke').

I have some very unfortunate news.  The New York City Banes & Noble reading for Snuff has been canceled.  Here's the official word from his publishers:

Doubleday has unfortunately canceled the SNUFF New York event due to a conflict that has arisen.  We apologize to the New York fans and hope to bring Chuck back to the Big Apple again soon.

This cancellation was out of Chuck's control and he feels terrible about it.  I don't have any more information on why.  I just wanted to get the news up for you all asap.  

Again, sorry to the New York fans.  

I actually think this is good news.  Choke will have a much better run and gain more exposure and word of mouth if it's not jampacked into the middle of one of the craziest tentpole movie blockbuster summers in recent history.  With that, here is the lovely Samantha Bond, from the publicity department of Fox 2000:

Hi Dennis-

JUST found out that the film is officially moving from August 1st to September 26th for its theatrical release. That date is official and ok to put on your site let fans know.

Oh, and you had asked about festival screenings. The following have been confirmed for CHOKE:

Los Angeles Film Festival: June 23rd and June 25th
CineVegas Film Festival, Las Vegas, NV: June 20th
Sundance @ BAM, Brooklyn, NY: screening on June 5th and June 7th, Q&A with Clark Gregg
Seattle Int'l Film Festival: June 5th and June 7th 

Today in the news, we've picked up wind of another vintage trailer from Cassie Wright's legendary arsenal of 'films'.  This one's for the memorable "Chitty Chitty Gang Bang", a pervert's Citizen Kane if there ever was one.

Stay tuned for "The Twilight Bone".

And you can check out more sexy videos at: www.myspace.com/cassiewrightlives!

And don't forget to help us get Snuff's ranking up high by pre-ordering it from Amazon here!

Well, it's May 13th and at last, we have the new essay from Chuck.  This essay came a little later this month, and then we made it even later on our end.  I apologize for that.  We'll be sure to give it a full month's run.  And those of you who have been eagerly waiting for the April essay to go all access, you can check it out now for free.

Chuck has comitted to 1 year of these, so expect 7 more yet for 2008.  Also remember that, for the first month they are posted, these essays are only available to Premium Members.  Basic Members can view them one month later.  So come June 13th, this new essay will be available to all, free, for one month only.
