Allow Brendan & our very special guests to tell you all about horror in the present tense!

Happy publication day!

ANOTHER WORLD ISN’T POSSIBLE by @brendancbyrne.bsky.social is now available

The stories of Brendan C. Byrne are spinning vortices of uncertainty: the past can’t exist, the present is a slow burn, the future is a vision from hell

"Abandoned algorithms spawned in cloistered, fetid pools.

They could compose minimalist atonal scores, write concrete poetry, détourn throbbing pop-ups.

They could play Go."

"She’d taken what was left of her admirer, gnawed & sucked dry, but found she’d been unable to dig. What was already interned there was too precious to her."

Our horror flick HER THRESHOLD is screening @ Shooshfest 2025: a fest for films with no dialogue!

It’s adapted from Brendan C. Byrne’s story of that name, so if you’re in Sydney 15 May, head to the Paddo RSL & thrill to the premiere of our morbid tale

In Brendan C. Byrne’s stories, the past doesn’t exist, the present is a slow burn, & the future is a vision from hell. With apocalyptic lucidity, he summons a timeline you never agreed to live in—yet somehow do.

In Sydney makin’ corporate horror films for Wanton Sun with these two local legends: Andres Vaccari and Sophie Suez

I have no idea which social media platform I fit into these days, but over on Substack I’ve been posting fiction new (from this year) and old (as far back as 1996). Join me there for long form stuff if you like (though its algorithm is as weird as any other)
