Donate to a local trans ghoul for pride

It would be a really awesome way to start pride month if we could help Max reach her goal, esp with the new family member 💖🏳️‍⚧️🐕

What the fuck?? The queer community of San Antonio -- fuck EVERYWHERE -- deserve better. I'll be donating when I get paid next. Consider doing so also

Please share this. I don’t think the pride center has a presence on bluesky and they could use all the help they can get. A deeply necessary resource. Their existence is essential.

🚨🚨🚨 Deeply unfair and fucked up for San Antonio’s pride center to lose its HQ during pride month. Please consider donating to their emergency fund! givebutter.com/san-antonio-...

another day of bookselling complete

bookshop has been packed since I opened 4.5 hrs ago and we've not had much opportunity to step away from the desk. columbo is leaping up and down with crazed puppy energy. just fed him some baby carrots and he started tossing them with his mouth then slowly goofily pouncing on them like they're prey

LOST FILMS and LOST CONTACT feature my very own short stories alongside such esteemed authors as Brian Evenson, Gemma Files, and Hailey Piper. Feeling like I’ve really “made it” as a short story writer now that some of my early physical publications are going out of print!

Max is such an impactful part of the horror community, and she's one of the people who inspired me to give writing a shot tbqh. If you can, please support her next move!

today is the last day to buy the anthologies LOST SIGNALS, LOST FILMS, & LOST CONTACT. also the pizza horror antho TALES FROM THE CRUST. these four books will never be reprinted. buy them wherever you can find them (I recommend bookshop dot org). ebooks also available at ghoulish.rip until midnight

ALL OF THESE TITLES WILL BEGIN GOING OUT OF PRINT AFTER TODAY

@raforall.bsky.social has a good list here too raforallhorror.blogspot.com/p/horror-pub...

The end of Perpetual Motion (I know, right?) means that after today Tales from the Crust, the most notorious anthology I've ever worked on, goes out of print. I'd recommend snagging it. I panicked and bought a box of them so I guess this is what we'll be eating for awhile.

I still love my @ghoulish.bsky.social anti book banning tshirt. I wear that shit to the library whenever possible

columbo after hearing how many projects i need to finish today

ALL OF THESE TITLES WILL BEGIN GOING OUT OF PRINT AFTER TODAY

Today is the final day to buy the original @ghoulish.bsky.social edition of THE GIRL IN THE VIDEO with Pye Parr's fantastic artwork. Buy it wherever you get your books. Don't delay. Praised by horror masters @joshmalerman.bsky.social @alanbaxter.bsky.social @davidmoody.bsky.social. amzn.to/4dGySSX

Columbo update: He just returned from an afternoon at Paw Pet's Glam in Southtown and he is thrilled to be clean and trimmed and no longer living on the street. They did great work!

REMINDER: MANY, MANY BOOKS GOING OUT OF PRINT AFTER THIS WEEKEND!

also, I must acknowledge less than an hour before finding him, I published this post that included a section about living in the shop that very night. "I can handle sleeping in a bookshop for a week. Maybe something cool and bizarre will happen." lmao u think, bitch? www.patreon.com/posts/last-m...

several ppl have asked about helping w/ vet fees & I'm not going to request assistance there. HOWEVER I *will* use this space to remind folks that I'm seeking $$$ help w/ my upcoming move & obviously anything not used for moving / living expenses will go toward animal care. bsky.app/profile/inte...

stray dog update

please help Max with money not only to take care of this adorable stray puppy but also for her relocation to Minnesota 💸💖🖖🏻

Everyone should go read “Issues with Authority” but only if you can deal with psychic cult members working for the CIA and beauty contestants with holes in their bodies. Now Shirley Jackson nominated!!!

The puppy distribution system chose Max and she now has a new dog that Idk if she’s officially planned to keep but the puppy seems to have definitely decided to keep her. She’s taking the fluffy creature for an exam this morning so maybe throw some money in the fund if you can to help them both 🐶

my first piece for The Lineup just went live! I'm talking about TWIN PEAKS books. incredibly excited editorial didn't omit the part at the end where I linked to ao3 fan fiction of Cooper and Truman banging each other. blessed 😘 the-line-up.com/a-comprehens...

Max's fundraiser to help with the move ko-fi.com/interrobangb...

I'm so sad I never got to visit in person (can't really travel while rehabbing my knee), but I hope I can cross paths with @interrobangbus.bsky.social in Minneapolis.

It was the city's first horror-centric bookstore ❤️‍🩹🔗 bit.ly/4dzHrPk

protector of the shop

Max Booth is a good person and wonderful member of the horror fiction community who is in a terrible situation and needs our help. Help if you can and do please spread the word.

❤️ Congratulations to NADIA BULKIN and GHOULISH BOOKS! @nadiabulkin.bsky.social @ghoulish.bsky.social

just sent this out. READ IT, GHOULS.

late-night ghoulish newsletter just went live! enjoy! buttondown.com/ghoulish/arc...

This got buried with the dog stuff I was posting but I wrote up a thing about my life in Texas coming to an end. Free! Share it! Read it! It’s the only thing I managed to complete yesterday before a stray dog ran up to me and pissed on my foot and insisted i bring him back with me

Nadia is THE BEST and wholly deserves this nomination

today's bookshop assistant

If you are in San Antonio or know someone who is, there is a dog who needs rescuing. Max has done everything she can but somebody needs to step up and get themselves a dog.

Honestly did not expect this -- ISSUES WITH AUTHORITY, my second collection, got nominated for a Shirley Jackson Award! 😯 I'm very honored and thrilled for the press as well @ghoulish.bsky.social

we are thrilled to announce Nadia Bulkin's ISSUES WITH AUTHORITY has been nominated for a Shirley Jackson Award! Congrats @nadiabulkin.bsky.social! www.shirleyjacksonawards.org/2026/05/28/n...

Walked him down to a vet this morning and confirmed he isn’t microchipped. 🫠 Y’all I cannot keep this dog. We gotta find his family. I’ll continue sharing info but later I’m putting in calls with some local rescues to see if I can fit him in. My hopes are not high tho.
