Building a circle of specific weirdos. My stuff is corporate horror. Think biotech startups with bad intentions. AI models that mimic the wrong things. If you are writing about high-tech mundane evil, drop a comment. I want to read it. #horrorcommunity #corporatehorror #weirdfiction #shortstories

I’m not here to inspire. My stories prove the lesson was rigged. You won’t feel healed. You’ll relate to the villain. You aren't good. You’re just untested. My characters don’t get better. They get honest. I have more: milescarnegie.substack.com #horrorwriter #amwritingfiction #booksky #horror

The Black Church — by Miles Carnegie #horrorfiction #shorthorror #folkhorror The Black Church They called it Devil's Bridge. A covered span, timber and iron. The road beyond wound into the trees and ended at the burned husk of the Black Church. The dare was simple. Park on the bridge. Kill the e…

#Frankenstein wasn’t a mistake. He was a prototype. In PRIMACY, nightmares didn’t die out, they got promoted. Biotech grows horrors, trademarks them, and calls it progress. The apocalypse isn’t an accident. It’s a pitch deck. 👉 a.co/d/7fG37zt #CorporateHorror #SpeculativeFiction #BiotechGothic

“We signed the user agreement without reading it.” Grateful (and slightly unsettled) to see No Kings read exactly the way it was meant to be. #NoKings #DarkFiction #CorporateHorror #SocialSatire #IndieAuthor If you’re curious, No Kings is available here: a.co/d/3VkTGPS

No Substitutions — by Miles Carnegie The neon sign for "Happy Garden" flickered and buzzed. Greg hated the buzz,  but loved the sesame chicken. Last week they gave him a bag of napkins and a raw potato instead of lo mein. Two weeks before that it was fortune cookies and somebody's car keys. Greg s…

She named them so they would remember they were loved. That might be the most dangerous thing she ever did. PRIMACY — read the warning ⚠️ milescarnegie.com/books/primacy #SpeculativeFiction #CorporateHorror #Primacy

The Shield — by Miles Carnegie The closet door was open an inch. Just enough for a slice of darkness to watch him. Danny lay flat on his mattress. He didn't move his toes. Moving toes attracted attention. The air in the room felt thin and cold. It smelled like carpet dust. He stared at the gap in…

Starting the morning with a little #PRIMACY and a lot of ideas for what’s next. Appreciate everyone who’s been reading along.

Sunday actually did its job and rebooted me. Monday walked in ready to spar, and I walked in… rested? Didn’t see that coming. How’s your week starting?

Taking a break from the writing brain today. Watching some football, dragging the holiday decorations out, and trying not to get tangled in a thousand feet of lights. Just a chill day before I dive back into the chaos.

Welp, I just sent PRIMACY in for Bram Stoker Award consideration — First Novel. 🫣 Near-future corporate horror. A biotech empire that treats classic monsters like product lines. Frankenstein, Moreau, Moriarty… all on payroll. #Horror #Primacy #BramStokerAwards

I’m sticking to Bsky, FB, Gavagai.com, and my blog. That’s it. I’m done collecting platforms like expired coupons. If you want story updates, ARC calls, or the occasional Gen-X tech rant, you’re already in the right place.🖤 Blog: milescarnegie.com/blog See you in the static.☠️ #horrorsky#horrorwriter

Woke up with that “the world wants to fight me” vibe again. Dropped the longer version on the blog if you want the full breakdown: 🔗 milescarnegie.com/blog/the-str... What are you wrestling today—words, edits, or the universe?

Day Zero. Door’s open a crack. 🚪 milescarnegie.com/blog/day-zer... First update’s up on the blog. The static’s getting louder.⚡

Dearly Beloved — by Miles Carnegie Alan's eyes burned from three hours of staring at the numbers. The Copper Pot's overhead was eating them alive, chewing through their wedding fund like a starved animal. He rubbed his face, noting the metallic taste that had been lingering in his mouth all week. "…

The Human Cloud — by Miles Carnegie The commercials promised magic. "Ask anything, your AI knows all ." Slick videos showed gleaming data centers, blue light washing over racks of servers, the hum of machines that "learned" like a brain. Reporters swooned, CEOs grinned, and investors lit cigars w…

Not a Creature was Stirring — by Miles Carnegie The radiator usually clanked at 3:02 AM. It didn't tonight. Joe had bled the lines. He needed absolute silence. He sat in the armchair, the Persian rug beneath him lost under heavy plastic. It extended from the hearth to the sofa. It crinkled slightl…
