I just narrated that last words of the book!

Now, all that's left is the glossary, acknowledgements, and pickups!

This thing is real folks!

Something in the world just went right!!!

when I look, all around, I can't believe you haven't read my review of @peterclines.bsky.social 's next novel (coming out next week), God's Junk Drawer.
Now you need to find your way to the NOAF blog.

I could write away the tour dates
conferring with my play mates
autographing all the books
and my pen would be busy scratchin'
while my fandom's is a hatchin'
if I only had the tour.

Very polite trick or treaters this year. A few forgot to say "Trick or treat?" but all said, "Thank you!"

Plus, even though I always let the kids choose their candy no one tried to grab a handful. Each one just took two (I offer two) except for the children who only took one.

It's possible my new Halloween-friendly novella, Hornytown Chutzpah's making a Weird Waldo-like appearance this weekend at #WorldFantasy. Okay, it's more of a reference than an appearance, but still find the @atthisarts.com table, ask them about their catalog, and if you find it post a picture.

Treats are sweet, but tricks can be fun!

Happy #Halloween

Since copies of my upcoming collection 101 Things to Do Before You're Downloaded will likely not be available in time for my next few events — starting with @bklynbooksbooze.bsky.social on November 18 at — I've printed up some postcards with a QR code sending potential readers to PS Publishing.

Not sure if other audio book narrators feel this way, but it turns out that the hardest lines are not the monologues or technobabble. The hardest lines are often the one-word sentences.

I think it's because so much nuance and subtext are funneled into those one-word bits of dialogue.

Yesterday, we riddled through the rituals and rites and rules of rhyme in children's books. I think the class got a lot out of it.

Throughout the lecture, I kept crediting @rachelkolar.bsky.social. Her discussion @scbwi.bsky.social remains one of the best I've heard on any writing topic ever.

You sometimes forget how quick and witty Jim was. So fun.
This is the very first appearance of Dr. Teeth, on March 18, 1975, promoting the upcoming MUPPET SHOW: SEX & VIOLENCE special. It’s remarkable to see how comfortable Jim Henson was both performing & improvising this brand new character, & just how fully-formed he already was...

Hey. I am a “local horror author” and reading at this event. C’mon down and listen to some horror things.

(Also, I painted my nails black for my costume so I have invested in this)
Join us at @boldcoffeeandbooks.bsky.social tonight for a costume party, readings from local horror authors, and an open mic to tell us all your real spooky encounters! 👻🎃

We have book prizes from local publishers, including @shortwavebooks.bsky.social and @moonstruckbooks.bsky.social.
