My favorite thing about Obsession is that, if online chatter is to be believed, men and women have WILDLY different experiences watching it, for better or worse.

BRIDES IN THE DARK is four months old! And while the Fairy-Tale Book Tour may be over (for now) the book is still going strong and finding new readers! Will one of them be you? Grab your copy today, before we go into our first reprint of the novella!

I think writing Brides in the Dark fundamentally changed my writing style. At least, it taught me I could put sappy stuff in the middle of the dark stuff I usually write. This is from SAMANTHAS (2027, Laughing Man House).

if there's ever a book written about me there had better be extensive notes about all the references to the Heathers musical in my written work

I don't think we give enough credit to how perfect a toy idea the Transformers were. You take a truck, something little kids were already playing with, and it turns into a great big guy who can punch people. And there's a bunch of them that all turn into different things. A fighter jet. A bulldozer.

My #BookReview wrap-up for March! Original & imaginative fantasy, sci-fi, and horror from: @marlynnofmany.bsky.social @danaiwrites.bsky.social @michaelboulerice.com @jacobstevenmohr.bsky.social @ivygrimes.bsky.social @pauljessup.com Full reviews available at: www.helenwhistberry.com/blog

I normally don't jump into current uproars or discourse, but as someone in the Query Trenches I'm mad about the "Shy Girl" debacle. This is not my first time querying (tho I'm furthest w/ this one) and I've notice a HUGE difference. It's harder, agents don't reply, they are overwhelmed & burnt out.

I'm not on here as much anymore but I wanted to give some love to my brand-new dark fantasy novella BRIDES IN THE DARK, which came out just last month from @quillandcrow.com It's been called a "fairy tale and then some," and I can't think of a better way to describe this story!

Womble reviews Brides in the Dark today by Jacob Steven Mohr

Final cover for Ellen Datlow’s ALL HALLOWS anthology and it’s a beaut. Really honored to have a story in here amongst so many amazing writers.

Happy book birthday!!

My latest #BookReview is for a skillful blend of Gothic horror, monster romance, and poignant and pertinent social commentary in this novella from @jacobstevenmohr.bsky.social. A fresh take on a mythological creature you don't often see explored sympathetically and impeccable dark fairy tale vibes!

I really should check my P.O. Box more often because 👀 Delighted to have my story “Severed Blessings” invited to the terrifying wedding that is THE JOINING edited by @jacobstevenmohr.bsky.social ! Inspired by a northern Thai wedding tradition and what happens when you break that sacred vow.

Wrinkled fingers tremble on the trumpet's valves. Endless summers with his boys, cheap gin and cigars. A hundred women, though he never forgot a name. Dresses twirling in the moonlight, bright as stars. Once, he'd known the sweetness of five mambos. Perhaps before the end, he might manage a sixth.

Thanks very much to Matt at @runalongwomble.bsky.social for this amazing new review of BRIDES IN THE DARK!

Doing an Incredibles re-watch and I genuinely believe this movie has the best voice acting of any of the Pixar films, particularly Holly Hunter and Craig T. Nelson's performances. There are scenes in this movie (jet vs missiles especially) that WOULD NOT WORK if the voice acting was not convincing.

sometimes I wonder if I'm toiling in obscurity and then I remember that there's somebody who told me she read my debut novel 5 times, going on 6. life is good.

Reading for a Best-of anthology, I start to see certain themes that wormed their way into the collective subconscious over the course of a year. I'm 10% thru submissions for the next BRAVE NEW WEIRD & I can tell that y'all were a *HORNY* bunch of mofo's in 2025, in some delightfully Weird ways🖤☠️

This comes out TOMORROW! I can’t wait for you guys to read all these amazing wedding horror stories!
