Some people told me I need to read some @ericlarocca.bsky.social. Not sure where to start I just randomly choose Everything The Darkness Eats, based solely on the title. Damn, this is good.

I wrote the introduction for the Horror Writers Association's Latinx Heritage in Horror Month series. Please read it and the work of the authors we are celebrating all month. Thank you HWA for this opportunity. horror.org/an-introduct...

Gretchen Felker-Martin and I want you to have a really bad fucking time 😈❤️ www.thepopverse.com/literary-hor...

Goodreads is where incredible books go die at the hands of extremely basic people 🥀🥀

Thanks to books by Eric LaRocca and Gretchen Felker-Martin, horror novels are getting more thematically nuanced www.thepopverse.com/literary-hor...

Build your #horror TBR with these #newreleases! @ericjguignard.bsky.social @rebeccacuthbert.bsky.social @ericlarocca.bsky.social @larafraterauthor.bsky.social @audreywilsonauthor.bsky.social @darialavelleauthor.bsky.social @nytebird45.bsky.social @jgfaherty.bsky.social @kaylafrederick.bsky.social

I AM GOING TO BE VERY BUSYYYYY!! I'm sort of going on book tour?!! And joining @ericlarocca.bsky.social, @timlebbon.bsky.social and @cgolden.bsky.social on theirs, plus a few cons! Come find me! I'd post links but I haven't collected them all yet. Google is your friend.

Next up, the latest from the sublime @ericlarocca.bsky.social …

If someone says you should do less of the art you love doing, they are not looking out for you. I love the below analogy because the people who love your art aren't going "I wish you'd do less, BE less." Especially if you're taking risks & developing your craft. There's always more to the journey.

Read this over the past two days and it was outstanding. Haunting and deeply discomforting. I highly recommend!

Horror folks, it's the middle of September, and the Stoker Recommended Reading List is looking extremely small. If you're a member of the HWA, go recommend something you've read that you loved! horror.org/awards/curre...

finally, the September shopping list is live! new books from @almakatsu.bsky.social @brianmcwriter.bsky.social @haileypiperfights.bsky.social @ericlarocca.bsky.social @sarahgailey.bsky.social @claymcleod.bsky.social @tkingfisher.com @brackenmacleod.bsky.social @bitterkarella.bsky.social & MANY more!

Ummm… My new novel is one of BookPeople’s Bestsellers for this week??? I’M SCREAMING!!!!! Thank you, BookPeople! I love you ❤️ @bookpeople.com @titanbooks.bsky.social bookpeople.com/list/fiction...

Last week’s launch event at An Unlikely Story was very special. It was an honor to share the stage with an author I respect and admire so much: Chris Golden. Thank you to everyone who has come to see me on my book tour so far! It means the world to me ❤️

TEENAGE GIRLS CAN BE DEMONS today! 13 coming-of-rage stories including the return to print of "Benny Rose the Cannibal King" about the monstrousness of adolescence and those who will do whatever it takes to get away, or get even. Out now from Titan Books! 😈 tinyurl.com/prhdemons

🎉🎉🎉

You're welcome.

My editor at Titan sent me an amazing email this morning to let me know that the entire Titan team is so thrilled with the first week of sales and response for WE ARE ALWAYS TENDER WITH OUR DEAD. I cannot thank you enough for your love and support for transgressive queer horror fiction ❤️

Everything is bad, but books are good. Get a book. Read the book. Cherish the book. Finish the book. Tell your friends about the book, and leave a review of the book. Hold the book close. Listen to what it tells you. Do as it commands. Place it on the dread altar and let it guide your every choice.

Last week was chaotic so I didn't have time to properly celebrate. BAD HAND BOOKS will unleash the complete SEVEN book Shadow Saga. Even cooler? Sure, they can be bought separately, but you can SUBSCRIBE to the whole series directly from Bad Hand, and get signed book plates with each volume!

It’s Spooky Season and our New in Stock is full to the brim! Get your reading list ready for fall with amazing horror books from @ericlarocca.bsky.social @haileypiperfights.bsky.social @claymcleod.bsky.social @rachelharrison.bsky.social @bitterkarella.bsky.social @manylittlewords.bsky.social & more!

“The suburbs dream of violence. Asleep in their drowsy villas, sheltered by benevolent shopping malls, they wait patiently for the nightmares that will wake them into a more passionate world.” ― J.G. Ballard, Kingdom Come

Thank you, @ericlarocca.bsky.social!

I just read @ericlarocca.bsky.social's Introduction to @kitgonzo.bsky.social's forthcoming book about me and my career, and it's the nicest thing anyone has ever said about me, and I'm tapping them both to eulogize me at my funeral one day. <3

Always a great day when there is new @ericlarocca.bsky.social mail 🖤

I was so lucky to meet @ericlarocca.bsky.social last night at Exile in Bookville. Eric has impeccable vibes and taste, is so kind, and happens to be my favorite horror author. I can't wait to read this newest book BURNT SPARROW: WE ARE ALWAYS TENDER WITH OUR DEAD. 🖤🖤🖤 #horror 💙📚

@ericlarocca.bsky.social another winner! Can’t wait for the rest of the trilogy!

I love book mail! 2 insta-buy authors dropping books on the same day is always exciting. Can't wait to dive in. @ericlarocca.bsky.social @claymcleod.bsky.social I will let you all know what I think when I take them in.

I'm going in. Whatever happens next it's @ericlarocca.bsky.social's fault for putting this in my head.

Chicago, you were a dream! Thank you to Exile in Bookville for making this such an unforgettable night. (Photo by Jan Agaton) ❤️

This is tonight! See you there.

I get to see @ericlarocca.bsky.social today at my favorite bookstore! What felicity! 🖤👻

Oh damn it! Ive been off here and out of it for so long and now i come back and see my favorite author @ericlarocca.bsky.social released another book?!?! OMG I need it now!

Oh also, South Austin people, the Sunset Valley Barnes & Noble has a bunch of signed LaRocca stock in the horror section now!

It’s an absolute shame that DC fired Gretchen Felker- Martin for exercising free speech and then @bsky.app suspended her account. Every writer here should be decrying this because we have to stand up for each other! This is ridiculous.

Had lunch with @ericlarocca.bsky.social today! He's at @bookpeople.com tonight with @gabino.bsky.social, Austin, go see em!

Hey, Austin, if you’re around, the place to be tonight at 7pm is hanging out with @ericlarocca.bsky.social and yours truly at @bookpeople.com!

HUGE #HorrorLibraries giveaway today-- Signed Eric LaRocca HC, just released @brianmcwriter.bsky.social, and @thomasha.bsky.social's amazing collection from @undertow.bsky.social. It's a giveaway so big that I have it on both blogs: raforall.blogspot.com/2025/09/horr...

Tomorrow night @ericlarocca.bsky.social is appearing at Exile in Bookville in Chicago. @danielkraus.com can't make it BUT I can. Comesee me and Eric talk about his work including volume one of the BURNT SPARROW epic trilogy. Spoiler...it's great! Details and registration: exileinbookville.com/events

See you tonight, Austin!! 🖤 @gabino.bsky.social @bookpeople.com
