My Sunday cooking/baking roundup:

Roast pork loin stuffed with apple and fennel, honey roasted multicolor carrots, and sourdough flaky cheese sticks!

I'm still here, just been very quiet.

So I may have gone overkill on the baking today.

I made three kinds of cookies and a sourdough loaf.

Happy Friday!

If you're looking for new books to read over the weekend, please consider supporting indie authors like myself!

Every sale or recommendation of our work helps so much.

Both my books are on deep sales for Black Friday through the end of Monday, Dec. 2, on Amazon.

If you like spooky things, make sure to check out The Roots Grow Into the Earth.

Alternatively, if you want some raw poetry about surviving emotional abuse, go grab a copy of a broken vase, envenomed.

Also: If you don't have money to buy my (or anyone's) books, and you live in the anglosphere, before you pirate them, try to get them from your local library instead. They have it or can get it, they pay for the books, and in many places writers get paid for their books being lent. Everyone wins!

Thank you everyone for the follows! I've been pretty sick the past few days and haven't had a chance to follow people back yet, but I'm working on that today now that I don't feel like a meatloaf left on the counter long enough to gain sentience.

I may be sick today, but I've got Dr. Juniper here with me to help with getting better:

I've got two books published as of now, but here's what I've got in the works:

-A Victorian era cosmic horror novella
-A second short horror story collection
-A cosmic horror novella about an entity most rotten
-A couple novels

Needless to say, a lot of horror is on the horizon.

Where are all my fellow eldritch horrors here on BlueSky?

Wednesday's mood:

It's overcast, I'm exhausted and still in pain, and putting off writing with Ship Graveyard Simulator 2.

Even though I've been a published author for a couple years now I still get nervous about sharing my books, but here it goes anyway:

If you're a fan of cosmic horror I'd love for you to check out my collection of short stories! It's full of eldritch terrors, cosmic gods, and dark magic.

I haven't really introduced myself here either.

I'm Bert, an author, poet, and publisher with AuDHD. All of my cosmic horror works take place in a setting I've developed over the past 15 or so years, and I have a laundry list of books in the works for this setting.

It's nice to meet you all!

Oh hi.

I finally installed the app, so it's time for me to be a bit more active here on Blueksy.

If you're an author, a reader, a gamer, or otherwise a cool person, let's be friends!

Hello #horrorreaders and #horrorauthors!

I'm finally on Bluesky, and excited to connect!
