Describe your plot in five words or less - if you dare. Postapocalyptic dad offends deer god

One of the coolest things about working in a bakery is when something I made sells well. People come in and say “Ooooh that looks so good!” and it’s always rewarding when that happens.

Thanks Gabino! We’re less than 2 months away from the release of SPLIT SCREAM VOL. 8: CURSED PLACES, featuring novelettes from myself and @matthewtpritt.bsky.social! Preorders are open with @tenebrouspress.bsky.social. #FridayReads

My cat can see straight into your soul, hope that’s okay.

Every concert is an absolute revelation. People getting together to listen to other people making music they love is peak humanity.

If you watch any of the “Tillyverse,” I have no respect for you. Which is fine, because if you watch any of the “Tillyverse,” you have no respect for yourself either.

Oh wow it’s March already! I guess I can now say I have a book coming out next month! (Split Scream volume 8 from @tenebrouspress.bsky.social )

Just finished reading Split Scream:: Cursed Places, an upcoming release from @tenebrouspress.bsky.social 🖤 I enjoyed both novelettes immensely! @sonorataylor.bsky.social and @matthewtpritt.bsky.social novelettes are so eerily dreadful but also very beautiful.

@matthewtpritt.bsky.social has a novelette in this collection that put my jaw on the floor. He writes subtle, elegant stories filled with pathos and a deep undercurrent of dread. You want visit his cursed place.

I really like working in a bakery. I've learned a lot of stuff to make my home baking better, I genuinely like my coworkers, I enjoy making food and feeding people, and I always come home smelling very nice.

It would be cool if any of the people shaping modern society weren’t obvious sociopaths

Me: buys a new mattress for the first time in ten years My targeted ads immediately after: you really seem like someone who loves buying mattresses! Want another one? Maybe two more? Twenty? It’s like your favorite thing! You’re pretty much the mattress guy!

Freeze is to frozen as squeeze is to…squozen?

“Just think of all the cool things AI will be able to do!” Okay dude, let me know if anyone in charge of developing it ever starts doing a single cool thing with any of it.

I had a coworker tell me I “had the vibe of someone who knows how to can food,” and I guess I’ll take that as a compliment. Also, she’s not wrong.

I love this anthology! I have a story about football and CTE in here that’s the most heartbreaking thing I’ve written, and the rest of the collection is full of fantastic stories

I’ve got an interview up at Weird Lit today! Check it out and while you’re there, you should take a minute to read my story, “A Watercolor Painting of a Data Center.” Love y’all!

Post a banger that isn’t in English Dodree is really good. This is their debut song and I’m already looking forward to their next release youtu.be/PqWApYzlfrU?...

Rooting for Sam Darnold today because I too had a really nasty case of mono it took me years to recover from

I'm composing sheet music for the first time in many years. It's what my college degree is in, and I've let myself get very rusty, but it's also fun to relearn it. I probably won't do it again for a while after this project, but it's still cool to brush up on that skill.

PREORDERS OPEN NOW🖤☠️ The next volume of our acclaimed twin-novelette series, SPLIT SCREAM, arrives this April...and these stories are without honor. Authors @sonorataylor.bsky.social & @matthewtpritt.bsky.social take you to some seriously CURSED PLACES: store.tenebrouspress.com

Changing my pen name to "And More" and claiming I've been published in every single anthology ever right beside the Big Names.

If you’ve never read Alex’s work before, you should remedy that right away.

I have a wee drabble today in @horrortree.com's Trembling with Fear. Inspired by a woman a few streets away who would shout for her kid to come home, in increasing volume... horrortree.com/trembling-wi...

Alright, getting stitches on my finger out today, guess I’ve got to find a new excuse as to why I’m not writing.

When you send rejections this is who you’re rejecting

I’d listen to what this bird has to say over any manosphere podcast

I am finishing reading a book today for the first time in like two months. Maybe this is a sign my brain will be functional again soon.

You don’t realize how uncoordinated your off-hand is until you injure your dominant one. I’m a musician, I should have way more manual dexterity than this!

Ten stitches, and I passed out at the urgent care while they were cleaning the cut. But it looks like I didn’t do any permanent damage, so all is well.

I cut my finger at work today bad enough to need stitches! How exciting!

I don't think enough people read my story in Weird Lit Mag about a guy who gets a job peeing on servers in a data center to keep them from overheating. I think it's some of the sharpest satire I've written, and I'd love for you to check it out! www.weirdlitmag.com/fiction/a-wa...

I made an absolutely perfect ham and cheddar quiche today.

Here’s to a better 2026. See y’all next year.

The Lottery is here to stay, and people who call me a murderer for stoning children to death to ensure a bountiful harvest stand in the way of progress.

Sometimes when I kiss my cat, she kisses me back

I’ve hardly spent any time online for weeks. It’s kinda nice!

Just got played a game against a “1MAGA1776” on chess dot com, and don’t worry, I won

Just a reminder, y’all: If you love a book, especially an indie-published one, tell the world! They can always use the help. And the authors (and publishers) love hearing it🖤☠️

Look, I know there are a lot more consequential things going on in the world right now, but Charmin’s 12=48 mega rolls got smaller sometime this year without changing the equation. You can’t just make up new math.

“AI is already here” is such a stupid argument. It doesn’t have to be here. It can go away. And it will if enough people reject it. Especially people with influence in the industry. For example, people like the folks at Publishers Weekly.

When you miss a giant, bold "We are currently closed to submissions" on a guidelines page and submit something anyway, you're probably too tired to be doing this right now.
