The New Bizarro Author Series is a publishing program from Eraserhead Press designed to give first-time bizarro fiction writers a platform. Each entry is a standalone debut by a different author, and the series ran through the early 2010s as part of the broader bizarro fiction movement.

Gabino Iglesias published Gutmouth as the fifth entry in the series in 2012. Other contributors include Kevin Shamel, Nicole Cushing, Kirk Jones, and Scott Cole, among others. While Iglesias later moved away from pure bizarro toward the barrio noir style he became known for, this series represents where his published fiction career began.
