With the release of Lipsnitch Snilly tomorrow, a new genre of book is also unveiled. The streets are calling it "Cornpunk"
My book comes out tomorrow. It's about a little son of a bitch who everyone gets mad at
Lipsnitch Snilly arrived in the mail. Hamlet wants to read, but he can't. Too young.

3 weeks left until this book comes out! Every day, a great pendulum swings into one side of my empty skull and then the other to herald the approaching release. On September 1st, it will hit my skull with such force that it breaks free.

Streets are calling these "the most normal comps of all time." LIPSNITCH SNILLY: 9-1-2026
They tell me I’m uncultured, but I’ll always recognise a bit of Beethoven.
"Steve Gibbon’s Lipsnitch Snilly is one of the most unique and engaging Fantasy novels I’ve read in recent years. Wonderful writing that makes you feel immediately at home in a strange, fabulist world, and characters that, although odd, remind us of the people in our lives.” -- Jeffrey Ford
We have booked Hamlet's surgery for Thursday. It's going to put us in the hole, but the more we delay, the worse he is going to get. Keep your fingers crossed for my little Mogwai! gofund.me/e8df7ff44 Dog tax below! A "Where's Hamlet?" picture.
LIPSNITCH SNILLY "After banishment for crimes against decency and for being an ornery little son of a gun, a young goat man embarks on a quest to learn dark magic in Ohio."
The cover for my upcoming dark fantasy novel is out, and pre-orders are available. Exciting stuff. I'll be posting about it a LOT most likely, but scope it out now!
We're still trucking on with this fundraiser to fix Hamlet's loose little leg. Please share if you can so we can book his surgery, and get him on the mend. gofund.me/3cbef1e95 Ham tax below!
Hi everyone, We're still trying to raise money for Hamlet to get his ACL and knee fixed. We know that times are hard for most folks, and people have been so generous already. A quick share might get it to fresh eyes. gofund.me/4c05278ed
A huge, huge thank you to everyone who has donated and/or shared so far. It has been heartwarming and humbling that folks are willing to help us. As dog-tax, here's Hamlet soaking up the sun yesterday gofund.me/2df9a59ec
