With the release of the BISHOP RIDER LIVES anthology I got the idea to make and start promoting it and my other books using faux magazine covers.

This is issue #68

Keep telling your stories. The world needs them. #BookSky

Well lookie hrrrrr. Go on, preorder some. #BookSky
I heard Barnes and Noble is having a big book haul sale. Who doesn't love a book haul? Pre-order 'A Killing Breath' and make an author happy.

Tradwife's been flagged by The Book Place We Do Not Name for "content violations" - on account of its "blood" and "dismembered organs" (presumably on the cover)

It's our bestselling book, which we now can't advertise on the place where most people (alas) still buy books

Happy New Year!

Re: STRANGER THINGS, series finale. While I’ve had my issues with this season as a whole, you could tell they put their all into this episode and yes, it was miles above the last 3 episodes. Not perfect by any means, but far more satisfying.

Setting the tone for the New Year by reading Like-Minded Individuals by @beaujohnson44.bsky.social Happy 2026 everyone. May your friends always be loyal and your chainsaw always be primed.

I average between 30 to 40 books read a year. This year was no different. 33 total. Some real bangers too. Only DNF’d a couple, so all told, a pretty great reading year. Onto the next!

If I could ask a favour. It would seem my SEO (?) was off. It’s since been corrected b/still doesn’t show my website as the 1st hit when I’m googled. Not asking you to purchase anything, just need you to click the link below to steer traffic the right way. Thanks! #BookSky

It's RELEASE DAY! Vol 3 has some absolutely phenomenal stories that dive deep into the dark, the unknown, and the truly terrifying. Be sure to pick up your copy and check out the work of these authors!

Re: DEVIL IN DISGUISE. I don’t know what pisses me off more, Gacy himself, that he’s still talked about today, how well this series was put together, or the absolute real life shit decision to rob those families of yet one last thing: the closure they deserved. Fuck me.

Contracts are signed. I am officially part of the @shotgunhoney.com family now. Look for reissued Bishop Rider books sometime next year with a new Bishop Rider book dropping in 2027. Big thanks to @ronearl.bsky.social for taking a chance on my type of retribution.

And just like that, the @shotgunhoney.com release schedule for 2026 doubled.

My lil crime thriller The Guilty Sleep debuted this year, and the handful of people who’ve actually read it seem to like it. Lee Child said “…don’t miss out!” Elliot Ackerman said “Who the hell is Jeremy D Baker?!”

Available everywhere…

I’ma focus of the good of this year. Full disclosure, it had a lot to do with books, bookish friends, and a certain alter ego of mine. #2025
