I am a teacher and an author, so it’s a terrible day for me, really Yes, my books are on that vile list.

there are probably more direct & important actions, but: if you have a local friends of the library group, now might be a good time to join/volunteer/donate!

After the small press that published the first two books in the Asperfell trilogy closed, I feared readers might never experience the conclusion of Briony's journey, but the incredible @orbitbooks.bsky.social has acquired the trilogy for publication next year! Huzzah, and follow me for updates!

I just had the coolest publishing meeting ever but I can’t talk about it because PUBLISHING. 😫

Today on both blogs: @emilyhughes.bsky.social's 2025 New Horror Books List is Now LIVE and Coming Soon, Emily, Robb Olson, and I Talk About Our First Half Highlights on @thearcparty.bsky.social (recording tonight!!!). Details and links: raforall.blogspot.com/2024/12/emil...

Cooking a roast dinner is much better than having one cooked for you, because you can eat pretty much a whole extra serving while you’re making it. For instance, I just “tested” three roast potatoes. Next I’m going to test a Yorkshire pudding.

THE SPIRIT COLLECTION OF THORNE HALL is in delightfully spooky company!

Congratulations, Lish!

GOOD MORNING the 2025 horror list is LIVE! repost to destroy a TBR: readjumpscares.com/2025s-new-ho...
