Over the past six months, I’ve had the distinct pleasure of getting to know Nathanael Hummel and L.S. Goozdich: Two incredible pulp writers who are on a personal crusade to revitalize the lost tradition of Men’s Adventure Fiction. Both men have shown great dedication, from launching an excellent podcast (of which I had the honor of being a guest), building an independent film studio, and even fostering a powerful community of men on discord. Hummel and Goozdich don’t just talk about the adventure books of the past, lamenting on the long-gone days when the genre was vibrant, alive, and since abandoned by publishers.
Instead, they’ve kicked the door down and are blasting their way onto the pulp fiction scene with new adventure stories for the everyday man to enjoy with their recently published collection,Fighting Heart of Man: a volume of gripping short fiction filled with thrilling action and strong, no-nonsense heroes guaranteed to inspire your inner adventurer.
Pulp, Pipe, & Poetry Magazine is honored to publish two short stories authored by Hummel and Goozdich this Friday, December 13 for interested readers to get a preview of what is in store in the Fighting Heart of Man Collection.
