Recently, I’ve noticed a lot of people advising against engaging with dark or bleak art when you’re in a bad mental space, but all I can think about is how that kind of art has saved me from my worst impulses during my lowest points.
The gates are opening again.

Apocalypse Party is accepting submissions and pitches, with reading beginning at the end of March. We’ll be choosing only a handful of manuscripts, so send us the work you believe in most.

If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to send us your work, this is it.

if you've read I BELIEVE IN MISTER BONES you should write up a little review on the places you do that. if you haven't read it, you should go read it. it's a pretty cool book imho and more people should be reading it

last year i messaged @slimyswampghost.bsky.social and asked if he had any spooky skeleton paintings hanging around we could use for my new novel and, as if he'd somehow planned this, this was already done, waiting for us. a perfect cover.

Emma E. Murray writes some of the bleakest, most vicious and unpleasant contemporary transgressive horror fiction I’ve read. This novel is exceptional and I highly recommend you put this on your radar for August 2025. Also that title is 🔥🤩❤️

“Indiana Death Song,”
the opening novella of this collection, blows the doors off the joint. It’s a huge statement piece: @fuckmaxbooth.bsky.social is here to stay.

Who is an author you'll proselytize over? A lesser-known writer who you feel you need to spread the word on to make converts out of other readers?
