About Jerrod & Robin
I am an author of dark/adult humor and horror as well as the co-founder and associate editor at KHP Publishers, Inc.
For a few years, I co-hosted a show as Grimm on The Metal Crypt with DJ Badslayer, at the top-ten radio station, Hard Rock Radio Live. It’s uncensored and pretty wild, playing hard rock and metal throughout with guests ranging from horror authors to rock musicians. S.D. Hintz, my good friend and CEO of KHP, was kind enough to put together the interviews as YouTube videos.
I spend most of my days at home caring for my disabled wife, Robin, who suffers from schizophrenia and has appeared in the comic book, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 8, #10. She’s a real sweetheart and her hallucinations, etc, keep things interesting when I’m not working from my own insanity. I was once diagnosed schizophrenic so I have literally been there and back. My skull had been shoved into my brain in a car accident in ’92. Among many other problems, the bipolar region of my brain was swelling under the pressure and therefore kicking in overdrive. But as John Astin used to say in Night Court, “I’m much better now.” Having experienced it all firsthand, however, I know exactly where Robin is coming from when she’s having episodes, so I work with her to “talk her down.”
And there were a few years after my skull was fixed – in the late 90s – that I actually missed the unstable reality, so I did a lot of acid and shrooms while in Florida. Fun times. I never did anything stronger than that, though, and while I’ve nothing against pot, I never was a fan of it. I also wrote the first incarnation of FEAR THE WOODS which was then titled THE OAK CLAN.
