Jazzed that TEENAGE GIRLS CAN BE DEMONS is on the longlist for Collection and its novelette "The Many Sins of Clara Greenstone" is on there for Novelette! 😈 And if this is as far as they go, then it was an honor 🫡 Now I need to go write in BAT EATER for Horror Novel 🖤 poll.voting.locusmag.com

Shallow post. I still continuously mask when I’m at work. I am desperate for a mascara that isn’t going to be all over my face by the end of my shift. I always look embarrassing and for whatever reason waterproof mascara absolutely irritates me so bad so that’s out. Suggestions?

Feral overload. If you know me you know that A I love Hailey Piper and B I love film horror. File under things to live for.

I’m feral over this
