Recently finished my first @carverpike.bsky.social read. See my Goodreads review for details but horror fans should absolutely check this book out! www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

New Book Spotlight for Dark Tide 12: Hunted Highways. It's road trip horror! afstewartblog.blogspot.com/2024/01/book...

Hunted Highways is a relentless anthology of horror and terror, and these authors bring it without mercy. Stories by Lucas [email protected] Rowland Bercy Jr., and Carver Pike @carverpike.bsky.social Full review: bibliophiliatemplum.wordpress.com/2024/01/25/h...

Ha. This came up on my WTForecast app for today's weather. I figured @briankeene.bsky.social and @marysangiovanni.bsky.social would appreciate this.

Thank you @kevharrison.bsky.social

Joe Hempel at Fright Night Audio is on a roll. My book Scalp is now on Audible. Narrated by the amazing Rue Farrow! That means I've got 4 audiobooks up now. Faces of Beth, Kin of the Fallen, Grad Night, and Scalp! Here's the link to Scalp! www.audible.com/pd/Scalp-Aud...

For years people have asked when there would be an audiobook version of Grad Night. Well, here it is, thanks to Joe Hempel at Fright Night Audio for putting it all together and to Anna Maste for doing such an awesome performance of my book. This is exciting: www.audible.com/pd/B0CRJ3TGXG

Had a nightmare last night. Stephen King was angry about something I'd apparently said about his writing in an interview. So he sent Pennywise after me. I was trapped in this house with Pennywise stalking me while King himself made fun of lines from my books via voice over. Don't mess with King.

Check out these reviews of the audiobook version of my book Kin of the Fallen. Thank you, Matt Williams and Ismdtb5!

Here's the 2nd chapter of Discovering Ivory in a Charcoal Cave. Someone told me earlier that the first chapter was very deep and wondered if it becomes positive. I think this second chapter shows that it does. The 3rd is a lot of fun. The full book is available on the Zon. youtu.be/cZbtTlJ-7W8?...

Who else is watching A Murder at the End of the World on Hulu? I'm only three episodes in but so far it's been pretty cool. It's a dark, modern whodunnit. Oh, and Squid Games the Challenge is awesome. It's a reality show version of the regular show. I think the finale comes to Netflix today.

Discovering Ivory in a Charcoal Cave isn't like my other work because it's not horror. It's a poetic journey to beat depression. I'll eventually change the book and create a Shel Silverstein like version with sketches to accompany each stanza. Here's a chapter 1 promo video. youtu.be/DwMOcvjVwbE?...

Umm... I'm alone in the master bathroom, nobody's in the bedroom on the other side of this door, and Alexa has said twice, "Hmm, what do you want to turn on?" Nope!

I don't know anything about basketball, but I do know that EVERYBODY better box out! Boxing out, whatever it is, is important enough for the middle school coaches from both teams to yell it the entire game. "Box out!"

Faces of Beth just went live on Audible. Joe Hempel at Fright Night Audio made this possible. Christopher Harbour did an awesome job with this performance. Joe Hempel narrated the Introduction written by @briankeene.bsky.social www.audible.com/pd/Faces-of-...

New charity anthology on sale now. Features two classic reprints by myself and J.F. Gonzalez as well as a ton of new stories by the best of the best. paperback and Kindle. amzn.to/3Gmtm6w

I've decided today is going to be an awesome day. Nothing is stealing my joy. The cats might think I'm a little bit crazy since I'm dancing around the house singing along to 'Lets Get it Started' by the Black Eyed Peas playing as loud as Alexa will play it. Today is MY day!

Over 95% sold out, this one will be completely sold out by morning. Very last chance to get in your order of @briankeene.bsky.social 's Splintered Labyrinth Book 3. thunderstormbooks.com/thunderstorm...

This is one of the coolest things I've heard this year. Now this will be a destination, for sure.

Check it out. Coming January 26th. Didn't Ben Baldwin do an awesome job with this cover? It's been great working with Rowland Bercy Jr. and Lucas Mangum on this project. Thank you to Joe Mynhardt and Crystal Lake Entertainment for putting this together. I can't wait for y'all to read these stories.

Not that I'm looking for a job. I just happen to check job sites sometimes. And I found the perfect title for me based on my coffee mug and my shirt. Look at that job title! I don't know what I need to be the tech of. Or what skills I need, but I can totally be a Rad Tech!

Still free. Today only. The ebook of course.

The first book in my Diablo Snuff series, A Foreign Evil, is free today and tomorrow. So many other great authors are offering freebies, too. Over three hundred books in total! Just go to www.terrifyyourtablet.com and you'll see the full list.

Yes! A Foreign Evil: Diablo Snuff 1 is included in this, too. Make sure you grab a copy of John's Ghost Heart and check out all the other freebies on Halloween!

I'm on chapter 19 and it's hard to believe I wrote this. The performers/narrators did such an awesome job with it.

Look what just went live! My interview on Unveiling Nightmares with Crystal Baynam. Give it a listen and give her a like and subscribe and all that jazz. Thanks again, Crystal! www.youtube.com/watch?v=7d6c...

Listening to the Kin of the Fallen audiobook, my slasher VS bikers book, and I'm on chapter 8. Christopher Harbour and Tiffany Bache did such an awesome job with this. It's available now on Audible. It's hard to believe I wrote the words coming out of my phone. Thanks again Fright Night Audio.

Look what just went live on Audible! Thank you to Joe Hempel at Fright Night Audio for all his work on this. And a big thanks to Christopher Harbour and Tiffany Bache for doing such awesome jobs with their performances. Kin of the Fallen is now an audiobook here: www.audible.com/pd/Kin-of-th...

This came up in my FB memory and made my day again. The Maddening is a personal favorite, but it's hard to push a book that's 5th in a series. Being mentioned in the same paragraph as Tim Curran, @bryansmith.bsky.social, @jonathanjanz.bsky.social, and Edward Lee is awesome. #indiehorror

Nickie McMillin saved another quote from my book Scalp. Love this! Thank you, Nickie.

Is this not the coolest idea ever? Brian, Christopher, and what looks like a list of the Avengers of the horror scene are gonna slay this. @stephenking.bsky.social 's world is in great hands.

Ohhhh man. Look what's on sale. I had it in paperback but had to grab the Kindle version too. Book 2 is coming soon so you want to get in on this before you miss it. I believe @ericbutlerauthor.bsky.social said this is only on sale one more day.

Look at what's only $.99. It's the book that wiped me (and my book Faces of Beth) out in the Books of Horror Indie Author Brawl. Andrew Van Wey is a true gentleman. He's seriously a really cool guy and a great author. Do yourself a favor and get this one now. It's on the Zon.

Who's going to Scares That Care Authorcon 3 in Williamsburg, VA this April? I'll be there with so many of my horror author and reader friends! You should join us. It's not just a convention, it's a family reunion, and it's all for a great cause. Tickets are so affordable! scaresthatcare.org

I can't wait for this! This cover is insane. The author lineup is awesome and proceeds go to a great cause. My story Do You Have Splatterpunk is in this one.

Nickie McMillin made these awesome images out of some excerpts from my book Scalp. She's in Christina Pfeiffer's group read of the book. Check these out. #horrorbook #horrorauthor #horror

Look at the wreath Rachelle Pianalto Jones made for Jules and me. Thank you, Rachelle! It's awesome!

Saw this in my Bookbub newsletter this morning. If you're an Iain Rob Wright fan or even if you've never read him, the ebook for Ghosts is only $.99 right now. I haven't read this one, but I recently read Maniac Menagerie and loved it.

Check it out. I was on Splatploitation with Stephen Cooper talking about extreme horror juggernaut Depraved by Bryan Smith @bryansmith.bsky.social . youtu.be/d7isj5jFiKA?...

Stole this pic from Jules. Wearing our new shirts. Man, I love this woman.

New @wrathjw.bsky.social limited edition up for preorder. Shipping later this month! The Ecstasy of Agony thunderstormbooks.com/thunderstorm...

Heralded as a seminal work of extreme horror, J. F. Gonzalez's SURVIVOR is back in print! This definitive edition includes two bonus tie-in stories, his essay on the novel's creation, his 10,000-word essay on the history of Splatterpunk and Extreme Horror, and an Introduction by me. amzn.to/3ZIq4TN

On episode 80 of First Chapter Freakshow, I read the first chapter from Skulls in the Bayou by Justin Joseph. Watch it here: youtu.be/vOT49TIrqMA?... #booksofhorror #horrorauthor #horrorwriter #horrorbooks #horrorwriterchat

I really wish I didn't have the Jardiance commercial jingle in my head. If you have Hulu, you have to know what I mean. "With Jardiance it's easy to see... I'm lowering my A1C."

Diablo IV is awesome. That is all. So are my books…

You can't beat this. A 9-book set for $.99? By Armand Rosamilia @armandauthor.bsky.social. This was in my BookBub email today. It's on Amazon.
