Truth!
My (short) short story, The Ballad of Miss Mouse, has been accepted for publication in the forthcoming issue (first one in over a year!) of Whiskey Tit Journal. It's kind of a cross between Looney Tunes and a murder ballad. @whiskeytit.com

So proud of my niece, she’s in the latest episode of The Chair Company!
❤️❤️❤️🪑🪑🪑
I don’t know the name of her character, but she shows up at the very end. Don’t spoil it for me, I haven’t watched it yet!

Yep. This is my publisher. 🐍🚽
Once in awhile very important literature crosses your path and you must look in the mirror and ask: am I going to publish a book about a guy who shits snakes? Yes I am. Yes I am. Very excited for @beardedbetts.bsky.social wtf bizarro body horror novel to come out Jan 2027. 🐍 💩 🧑‍⚕️

While we're on the subject of me, I just got the latest sales report, & after crunching the numbers it looks like Letters to the Purple Satin Killer has sold over 2750 copies! That's including ebooks, which we all know are inferior, but mostly paperbacks! Thank you, everyone! @clashbooks.bsky.social
