Joseph approached and we talked. He had just signed a deal with a publisher called Bloody Books. He's a horror fiction writer and his book was called, Meat. He did a second book with the same publisher called Garbage Man. I, must admit that I haven't read any of them (what can I say, horror scares me), but the books went on to greatness. Stephen King even quoted this man as 'Joseph D'Lacey Rocks!' Things happen in recession and Bloody Books went under! This left Joseph with nothing.

 His agent parted ways and he struggled to get a small publisher from the states to take on his work. I found it crazy at the time, I mean he was famous in my eyes and all his fans, but couldn't get another contract. Now things have changed.
