Amazing announcement of a new novelization written by the awesome @catvoleur.bsky.social rue-morgue.com/exclusive-ne... #horror #horrormovie #novelization

Today, an episode no one but everyone wanted - we are reading Taskmaster Fanfic! We dive into the loneliness, the sexual tension, and OUR love of one of the best comfort TV shows. #taskmaster #tvseries linktr.ee/OwwrPod

Did you know that there's a national redhead day? Seemed like a great excuse to remind everyone of this beautiful cover art that Ruth Anna Evans made for me 🖤

Releasing this standalone short story for my birthday! It's available on KDP, itchio and my Kofi story 🖤

I posted about this on my writer's blog today, but I'm doing a Vague November Writing Challenge for myself. I've got a list of personal writing goals, and I'm just going to tackle them one by one, carving out time every day to make it happen 🖤

It was such a pleasure coming on and talking on this podcast!

Halloween costume got ruined? Plans got cancelled? Cold weather gave you the sniffles? You can still get plenty scared from the comfort of your own home tonight with ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE 4, which can be read in a single sitting. 🎃

Low-budget haunts. Actual nightmare fuel. And only one rule: you can't turn back until you reach the end. ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE 4 is a read-in-a-sitting book to treat yourself to this Halloween.🎃

Happy National Cat Day to all of my sweet little rescues (including the two I couldn't snag pics of today)

My goal this week is to sell just one single copy of ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE 4 (which I swear, can be read as a standalone title). It's seriously one of my favorite things I've ever written, and I'm not going to shut up about it until Halloween. 🎃

A quote from ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE 4, my standalone horror novella that takes place on Halloween and is a spooky scary good time 🎃 🦇 🩸

Today on the Pod we are covering the second half of @catvoleur.bsky.social's REVENGE ARC! We discuss the amazing shocks and horrors of this incredible work! #Booksky #Books linktr.ee/OWWRpod

I am so excited, I just got two big projects back from my editor and this is the kind of feedback I love to see 🤣 @tmr8706.bsky.social

This week is National Write a Review Week! Please consider, if you haven't already, leaving a review for some of your favorite indie books. Word of mouth is so important for emerging authors 🖤

Today is #IndieMission! We are covering parts 1 g 2 of @catvoleur.bsky.social's Revenge Arc! We gush over the editing, and the story, and do a deep dive into the art and the artist! #booksky linktr.ee/OwwrPod

Happy release day to SEASON’S GRIEVINGS. Excited to be a part of the first anthology by ROF Publishing House and once again share a TOC with the super talented @evoripclaw.bsky.social 🖤

It’s Indie Intermission time!! Hannah and I are covering Revenge Arc by @catvoleur.bsky.social and questioning if our love for this book means we need more therapy. Lol. We also chat about Would I Lie to You?, great YA books, and Gilmore Girls. #podcast #indiebooks #booksky #horror #horrorbooks

RELEASE DAY! Want to read a haunted Christmas tree story? My short story All is Bright in the TOC of Season's Grievings by ROF Publishing. You'll also find work by @catvoleur.bsky.social @hvpatterson.bsky.social and @dmpelley.bsky.social Links below the pretty pictures!

Here is Archer (literally) devouring AT DARK, I BECOME LOATHSOME We liked this one! The pacing felt uneven but it’s a solid horror story and I loved the ending 🖤🖤🖤

🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄 5/5 psychedelic mushrooms to MOONFLOW by @bitterkarella.bsky.social Gross. Weird. Endlessly entertaining. I cannot recommend this one enough 🖤 (and obviously Atticus approves)

I am feeling less and less comfortable watching Blumhouse movies these days over their AI policy. But statements like this from the actual creators help a lot on a film by film basis.

Having a book advertised in Rue Morgue is a literal dream come true! Thank you so much to Slashic Horror Press 🖤

I am finally settling in from con season, and ready to re-tackle social media. Sorry in advance for the flood of updates coming from me today. Please be patient with me as I try to get back into the swing of things and catch up on messages 🖤

I've decided to take a few days offline. I've been promoting/marketing more because I am trying to get more serious about my writing career, but I feel like my algorithms need a small reset 🖤 💚 Gonna come back later this week, hopefully with a strategy that works a little better for me.

CJ is panicking because it is National Hug Your Boss Day and she knows she's gonna get squished.

All set up at TBR CON

Today is National Video Game Day. While I'm not ready to say that my current WIP is *inspired* by Stardew Valley, I can say that I think the vibes will really hit for anyone familiar with this shed layout (shoutout to my fellow console players, also, as PC sheds can be more optimized!)

In amongst all the other cool things I get to do at TBR Con this year, I shall get to HAND DELIVER my two latest Covered in Darkness books 🥰

Reminder that my STANDALONE horror novella, ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE 4: HECK HOUSE is available. You can read it in a single sitting and it's perfect for Spooky Season.

Con season is actually insane because I have LITERALLY moved cross country with less stuff

As I work on finding a single day in September that isn't swamped (or when I'm not in the car) to release my latest Covered in Darkness book ... I figured I may as well remind everyone to pick up the previous installations of the series as well 🥰

I am holding out hope that THE LOREKEEPER will arrive in enough time for me to bring it to TBR Con this weekend! SO excited to see all my friends down in the south and come home with a ridiculous amount of books 🥰

For international Literacy Day, I wanted to share some of the books that were a big influence on my debut, Revenge Arc 🖤 🦇 Dracula 🩸 Misery 📖 House of Leaves Would love to hear from you all what classics in your genre you feel have influenced your work the most 🖤

Today is Buy A Book Day!!! It's a great excuse to treat yourself and support some indie authors 🥰

Since I know not everyone has the funds to Buy A Book on National Buy A Book Day, I figured this is a great time to remind everyone that THE BAD THING HAS ALREADY HAPPENED is available through my KoFi and Itch as a Free/Pay What You Want. So now you have no excuse not to treat yourself to book.

With 27 days left until the #ChoicesAnthology release, now is the perfect time to share another amazing blurb, this time from the lovely @catvoleur.bsky.social Like everyone who's read it so far, she absolutely loved it - and you will too, so preorder today! books2read.com/u/3JYo9Q

🤩 Season's Grievings now has a Goodreads page!!! @catvoleur.bsky.social

Today is National Read a Book Day. I HIGHLY suggest indie horror for this occasion as there are so many novellas/novelettes that can easily be devoured in a sitting. Below are some of my shortest titles if you're interested in checking them out 🥰

BATTLE OF THE MOODBOARDS!!! I have two fall projects, and only one is going to make it to my editor this year. Option 1 is a sapphic, surreal tale of vigilante crimes in the city. Option 2 is cursed, small town with a pansexual MC (with sequels planned) Comment to vote!

Promoting THE LOREKEEPER again because *fingers crossed* I might have copies of it at my next couple of cons! Finally! Like, a year after it comes out you'll finally be able to get signed copies from me 🤣 😅

A big thank you to On Wednesdays We Read for selecting my book and please check out all the amazing books from the bracket 🥰

All Of These People Are Going to Die is a series of 5 STANDALONE novellas, each penned by a different author, each focused on killing off one person from the cover. My installation, 4, is paranthetically titled "Heck House" and promoting it is one of my favorite parts of spooky season.

Happy Ginger Cat Appreciation Day to my boy, Arch. (Pixel is here celebrating him as well!)

I've been sitting on this news for a couple days because I wanted to wait until it was official, but I have been accepted into the International Association of Media Tie-in Writers!

I am still working my way through this one, but it hardly feels like work. THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT is one of those anthologies that reminds me how blessed I am to know and associate with so many talented writers

Dany is as shocked as I am, but it looks like I will have books to sell at TBR Con 🖤🖤🖤 (Still waiting on a couple boxes to arrive but at least I have some stock on hand)
