My new original Horror novel, The Face of Pain, is out now!

The doctors said it was cancer, but Tricia knew the thing inside her was something far worse...

Coffin Moon by @keithrosson.bsky.social is called the best modern vampire story ever by @stephenking.bsky.social I saw Joe Hill on his King Sorrow tour (which is a new favorite book), he had big praise for it too. They are not wrong. This book is a modern classic

And now I'm watching The Nun II.
The first movie didn't impress me at all, but I'm willing to give the sequel a shot. After all, I didn't like Annabelle at all, but really liked Annabelle: Creation. And the Nun character freaks me out in the Conjuring movies.🙂
