Bunny is a re-read and I’m loving how creepy/disturbing The Black Lord is so far 🧌

"This is a short but beautifully frightening story. It's been a long time since a book actually scared me, but this book has such a palpable feeling of dread and menace that it is hard to not be scared." -Roberto, Goodreads

AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.

Currently reading When the Wolf comes Home by @natcassidy.bsky.social and MAN does it fucking rule. My favorite line so far: "Aw, fuck, she traumatized him! Oh, well."

Really fun, really cool take on the werewolf. Loving the crap out of it

Just saw the delightful clown and a cornfield and @adamcesare.bsky.social I have to ask: are Rust and Cole a reference to True Detective?
Movie slaps, had a blast

Story idea:
"I close my eyes when I pass through doorways, because it can only see me in transition, going from place to place, and that's the only time I can see it. I can't let it know I can see it. If it knows, it will never leave me alone, and every doorway will become a nightmare."

Been really discouraged in my querying process lately, but every time I get a rejection, I go back and read some of the manuscript and it's *good* like probably the best thing I've ever written. It'll happen, I keep telling myself, because if I love this book, there MUST be an agent who will too

Forever obsessed with these illustrations
Interior art from @chinckleys.bsky.social's THE BLACK LORD.
Depicting forests and nature is obviously a sweet spot for Echo, and who are we to begrudge her that, when the results look like this.
