Someone on another site reminded me Morticia Addams exists.

Wed, Oct 15 I will be doing a live interview on Booked! (10am CDT, 11am EDT). The second half focuses on audience Q&A. If you can attend, feel free to pelt me with questions. Ask anything! If I don't know, I'll just make something up. To join, use this YouTube link: www.youtube.com/live/RoWrpcg...

Today I review SLEEPLESS HOLLOW, by Graham Bradley. If you've ever wanted to see the Legend of Sleepy Hollow reimagined as an '80s action-adventure story, this is your chance! ruinedchapel.com/2025/10/10/b... #booksky

There really should have been more Elvira movies.

Twelve days to go. Time to repost stuff you've already read—er, I mean, cleverly repurpose existing content resources for impactful brand synergy. Jokes aside: as we whip through pull quotes of the great reviews thus far, there was never a chance I wouldn't start with this one.

@maggiejean-2.bsky.social 👋Hi! 😀

My review of BETRAYAL OF TRUST, the latest thriller from @geofcooper.bsky.social, is posted! ruinedchapel.com/2025/10/07/b...

The moon through a pergola. What an exciting life I lead. 😜

"Okay, a detective story... BUT nothing in it is logical or plausible!"

In that case, a woman named Pumpkin counts, too.

I'm going to watch this tonight. Wish me luck, @rlpastore.bsky.social

I haven't read the article, but I'm guessing it was something like, "you better win this, or I'll trade you to the Bengals."

Today I review THE MOTHMAN PROPHECIES by John A. Keel. This classic work of paranormal literature is filled with compelling and totally unverifiable stories of bizarre happenings. ruinedchapel.com/2025/10/03/b... #booksky

Today is the best day to start reading this book.

Three weeks to go. I know I love to sell the "end of the world, fire, brimstone, OMG" angle with this book. And the heady themes of religion, magic, art. It's good hype. But it's really just about this. Best friends, talking. Feeling. Being. But also the end of the world OMG

Today I review a short horror story from an unexpected source: @adambertocci.bsky.social, better known for his slice-of-life literary fiction, goes to a very dark place in THE FAIRFIELD COUNTY FRIDAY NIGHT GRIDIRON BONANZA. #Booksky ruinedchapel.com/2025/09/26/b...

Spotted some good advice on my walk. 😎

Since Autumn is coming, you should know I wrote a novella centered on my love for Fall and the Halloween season. It's part supernatural crime thriller, part raunchy romcom, and all Autumnal mayhem. It's $0.99 on Kindle. a.co/d/87Ru1C3

A sunset shot tonite from Hollywood, badass old streetlight (30's I think) that still works, but not lit up yet. Some palms off in the distance I thought looked nice. 2nd is a few days/weeks back - a bit clearer perspective of an ornate thing still working in the metropolis, from ages ago.

When you’re sitting on your balcony having a drink and pondering life, and a surprise fireworks show goes off downtown. 😍 🎆

Pretty mural.

One of my readers informs me that I'm "too young to say 'get off my lawn.'" But, as @carrierubin.bsky.social knows, I am secretly an ancient old man trapped in a younger man's body!

Today I review CANDY APPLE CURSE, by Eva Belle. It is a short Autumn cozy mystery/fantasy, to get us in the mood for the season. ruinedchapel.com/2025/09/19/b... #booksky

This is the most irritating feature in Wordpress. Not only do I not want their AI suggestions about how to write, but it APPEARS RIGHT OVER THE TEXT I AM TRYING TO EDIT.

Yes, what she said! 👇

Of all the things that never happened, many will never happen in the coming days.

Happy Friday. 🩷🧡💛 “In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you.” —Deepak Chopra

Today I review GO TELL THE SPARTANS by Jerry Pournelle and S.M. Stirling, a military sci-fi Cold War allegory from the '90s with a cool (albeit misleading) cover. #booksky ruinedchapel.com/2025/09/12/b...

Creepy!

This is another great Brad and Karen thriller! Review coming soon-ish.

Now available in print, ebook on presale for October 7 release Brad Parker and Karen Richmond book 9 “Betrayal of Trust is a sharp, suspenseful thriller in which betrayal and injustice infect the otherwise sterile world of cancer research.”–Foreword Reviews www.amazon.com/dp/B0FK3SWRSX #bksky

Good morning. 🧡

Zen on the bike trail. 💙

Read Berthold’s incredible review of The Jump. Then read the book. Then tell your friends. Post a review. It’ll be fun.

Today, after much anticipation, I review @mpaxson.bsky.social's new novella, THE JUMP. A wild, absurd odyssey that starts in a bleak dystopia and ends up... well, somewhere else. 😉 ruinedchapel.com/2025/09/05/b... #booksky

It took me 9 years to get around to making a welcome page for my author's website. But that's me, someone who is barely on this side of the divide separating procrastinators from quitters. rlpastore.com

THE JUMP by @mpaxson.bsky.social is in good company in the absurdist fiction category. But we need more. Make it #1.

it’s the first of september, post an autumn gif 🍃🍂

Berthold says this might be the best book of the year. You should buy it and see.

Today's the day! @mpaxson.bsky.social's tale of a surreal journey through a dystopian America, THE JUMP, is now available. a.co/d/fx9eqKo (Review coming on my blog this Friday.) #booksky

THE JUMP by @mpaxson.bsky.social comes out on Monday. I've never read anything else quite like it, and this is *me* we're talking about. It might be the best book of the year. Get it here: books2read.com/u/4A6KDd
