I also feel like shouting out @ivygrimes.bsky.social ! Her Glass Stories, published last year, is one of the strangest and finest collections I've ever read. grimscribepress.com/glass-stories/

Shout out to @undertow.bsky.social , @badhandbooks.bsky.social , @grimscribepress.bsky.social , @wordhorde.bsky.social and @dimshores.bsky.social . I have not read a piece from any of these small print presses that wasn't amazing. The work they do is extraordinary. Go out and support them today!

Today I celebrate the one-year anniversary of the birth of Glass Stories from the grizzled womb of @grimscribepress.bsky.social. To mark the occasion, I will give my own personal rating of each story in the collection (out of 5 stars). This will be my longest thread ever.

Your humble servant will be narrating.

New essay! In which Ben Lockwood (@benlockwood.bsky.social) made me stop and consider how place & space can work in short stories, in ways I previously hadn't appreciated (thru Ive Grimes' collection). Read now! It's free! Tell your friends! www.speculativeinsight.com Tag @ivygrimes.bsky.social

Imagine Trump and Elon sending a bunch of oil drillers to an asteroid to nuke it so it splits in half to avoid a collision with Earth and then this happens on launch.

get swept up with us today into today's square from Ivy Grimes "...he said he had news. He was going to ask our mutual friend to be his girlfriend. It was the first time I'd ever been alone with R. "Why are you telling me this?" I said." https://www.havehashad.com/ud9j6

Congrats to all and especially these authors, including the great Sam Cowan of Dim Shores! We’re looking forward to publishing Fawver’s newest collection this fall!

I heard recently that a popular horror podcast was slagging off Ligotti’s short story, “The Red Tower.” My response: uploading a reading of it to YouTube. “Purple prosed” nonsense or singular masterpiece or something else entirely? You decide.

The SECRET GATEWAYS books have arrived!!! Thank you to Matthew and Jon for working tirelessly to get these to their fans! Thank you to Sam @ Dim Shores for pitching in to get these organized and mailed out. @mattmbartlett.bsky.social @grimscribepress.bsky.social @dimshores.bsky.social

Clive Barker gets it. faroutmagazine.co.uk/hellraiser-c...

Another very good book I finished back in January: Glass Stories by @ivygrimes.bsky.social . Themed single author collection, really cool idea, executed beautifully. Satisfying, varied range of strange, symbolic fantasies of dread, love and horror of the body, the domus, immanence and transformation

Finished a breathtaking short story collection Santa brought me. Mindf* collection, composed of interconnected stories, reading more like a composite novel. Origami Dreams and both stories with Ventriloquism in their titles my favorites. Strongly recommended! 5/5 From @grimscribepress.bsky.social

Ducking in quick to show the latest delivery to my mail box. Spiritus Ex Machina story collection by @lcvonhessen.bsky.social published by @grimscribepress.bsky.social!

Massive site-wide sale on Audible means there's a nice little chunk of my wishlist purchases, including @grimscribepress.bsky.social's work as narrator for Ligotti's NOCTUARY AND THE SPECTRAL LINK, a handful of Warhammer Horus Heresy titles, and @hughhowey.com's Silo series because I love that show!

This story is unforgettable.

Book Launch day! Available now from Grimscribe Press!

Available today! These stories are wickedly funny, subversive, strange forays into von Hessen's twisted imagination, and the style of their prose is out of this world. Surely one of the best collections of the year. Get it! Read it! Review it! Support subversive, great weird writers! #horror

Grimes is Gold!

Thanks, William. This debut collection drops next week in trade paper and pay what you can ebook editions. Grimscribe was exceedingly fortunate to publish a book as powerful and original as this one—one of the best collections of 2024. Don’t miss it!

Please don’t miss this brilliant debut collection from @ivygrimes.bsky.social . The stories within are incredibly imaginative, moving, horrific, absurd and often hilarious—sometimes all at once. Glass Stories is astonishingly original and surely one of the best collections of 2024.

Please help Teri, an exceptional horror writer who has been through hell lately.

Thanks Patrick! Spiritus Ex Machina drops next week and is available for purchase! A brilliant debut by an author everyone will be hearing about for years to come!

Hello, everyone! To introduce myself to new folks: I write strange stories, some of which (the glassy ones) are featured in Glass Stories: grimscribepress.com/glass-stories/ Welcome!

If you're part of the writing community, could you please holla and RT so we can find each other? I want to build up what we once had on Twitter (but better) #writers #writing

Hey! Just saw this! Many thanks!

Now widely available! I hope my narration does Ligotti's masterpiece justice. Let me know what you think!

Many thanks to you, KC, and the great PseudoPod for producing it! It really took on a life of its own.

LC von Hessen's debut collection drops in just over a month, and it's gonna knock some socks off! Big reviews coming soon. "Dark, lyrical, and grimly charming, Hessen's prose is marvelous." —Laird Barron "Every piece in this collection will reward you." —Michael Cisco
