Also, shout out if you couldn't get up today, because sometimes things really, really suck and you don't have to pretend it's okay.

I wrote a book! My debut novella goes on pre-sale Jan 22.
If you’re a fan of the 90s, Buffy, unlikely superheroes, and found family, this novella could be for you. It’s a fun book.

Yo, how do we add a category to the Stokers? There should be a Best Horror Poem (singular) category, since there's tons of great horror poetry published but not many people get a whole collection. @horrorwritersassoc.bsky.social

I want news outlets to be run like scientific studies.
I don't want to see some podcaster announcing their opinions as facts; I want someone to go into great detail about how they failed to prove that bananas caused COVID. They didn't think it did, but they needed to fail to prove it first.

Wait, we're talking about Canadian slashers and they're only going to talk about the ones from the 80s? Not how Black Christmas (1974) pre-dates Halloween (1978)?

Thank you Eryn and #HorrorWritersChat people.
This time of year makes us grateful for a warm place to sleep and turns our thoughts to those who don’t.
This charity anthology (which includes my story “A Tall, Thin House”) benefits women and children experiencing homelessness.

TOMORROW! The Rise, third volume in the Tales From The Gulp, arrives on Friday 13th. It's all been leading to this. There's never been a better time to visit the dark and strange harbour town of Gulpepper. Locals call it The Gulp, as it has a habit of swallowing people.
