Hi! I’m August V. Fahren. I graduated from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh and the Art Institute of Portland.

Now I’m a professional author that is kind of a big deal in certain select genres. In other words I’m just one step above total obscurity. My claim to fame was my book Thursday Thistle reached a ranking of 1,851 out of all of the books on Amazon (i.e. outselling the Sookie Stackhouse books and a Stephen King book for a short time) and as one reviewer said, “[It] gives Alice in Wonderland a run for its money.” My newest book is Mad Mannequins from Hell. It is sort of like Killer Klowns from Outer Space meets Evil Dead II. When I’m not writing I’m out having fun and meeting women. If you’re looking for a girlfriend or date check out my books Surefire Seduction Secrets and Power Seduction Secrets. I’m pretty good in that area too. But don’t just take my word for it:

“You’ve got to read this book. Mark my words - August V. Fahren is a writer to watch.”

—Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Flesh Eaters and Dead City

Kindle for: PC |  iPhone |  BlackBerry |  iPad |  Android |

August V. Fahren is the author of highly entertaining and weird (i.e. Bizarro) fantasy and horror stories. Often these quirky and strangely compelling tales are described by their contrasting elements such as sweet and demented or hilarious and horrifying. August is a personality collector of the highest caliber, an avid traveler, and is hopelessly addicted to movies. Many of his adventures spanning more then a ten-year period were chronicled in his nonfiction seduction secrets series.

“Wicked and deranged fun!”

—Edwin Stark

“…Original and refreshing.”

—Bibliomantics

“August appears to rely on - and I’ve thought about it a lot - being smooth. I mean his writing is SO easy to read. Christ, I’m reading one of the strangest things I’ve ever read, and I don’t want to put it down. It’s…bizarre.”

—Filing Words

“Some books are just fun to read. When you find that special novel, it’s magical.”

—Horror Talk

“I wasn’t sure if I should be terrified or burst out laughing. I ended up mostly doing both. From the first chapter to the last, Fahren delivers outstanding entertainment.”

—BricksOfTheDead

“August V. Fahren - The Chuck Norris of Bizarro?”

—Zombie Shop

“Saturday morning cartoon-silly…I like Fahren’s imagination and sense of cult-movie fun.”

—The Horror Fiction Review

“If people unplugged their pathetic preconceived notions about popular fiction, formulaic fantasy, sparkly vampires, and paint-by-numbers romance, they would realize what a colorful world we live in. And Fahren’s world is a beauty.”

—Martin D. Gibbs
