My new book, The New England Grimpendium: A Guide to Macabre and Ghastly Sites is due out in September 2010. You can pre-order it now on Amazon.com or your favorite book retailer. For more information, visit the O.T.I.S. page on the book or my author site, JWOcker.com.
Have a short story called "Why Do the Heathen Rage?" included in the anthology Chimeraworld #6. It's an attempt at the most violent story ever written.
The July issue of Rue Morgue magazine features a new article by me on Count Orlok's Nightmare Gallery in Salem, MA...this article is totally different from the O.T.I.S. entry on the same topic.
The College, the alumni magazine of St. John's College in Annapolis, MD (one of my alma maters), recently featured an article by me about oddity hunting along the upper half of the I-95 corridor. Link goes to a PDF of the whole publication, and the article is on page 48.
O.T.I.S. is now "As Seen on CNN"...
Made it to a CNN front-page headline, in fact:

Volume 3 of the literature journal, Studies in Australian Weird Fiction, features an article by me on Nick Cave's And the Ass Saw the Angel called, "Yeah, Though I Walk Through the Valley of the Shadow of Beth: Murdering the Muse in Nick Cave's And the Ass Saw the Angel."
IMDB.com regularly features movie-related O.T.I.S. articles on their front-page Hit List.
In an effort to take all the interest out of human interest stories, the Nashua Telegraph interviewed me about O.T.I.S.

The November issue of Rue Morgue magazine features an article by me in its Travelogue of Terror section about the filming locations of George Romero's Living Dead trilogy. Long live the dead.
