Damaged Goods is a journey of a writer honing his craft. This is a collection of new and previously published stories by J. Travis Grundon. It's a great introduction to his work and a must-have for long-time readers. 

“J. Travis Grundon’s work has a unique voice in a world of similar voices, something that writers twice his age don’t have. His work, whether they’re straight-out horror, noir mashups or just plain weird, tells stories that strike nerves and stay in the memory long after you’re finished.” –Author John F.D.Taff, The Fearing
