“Shoot Me In The Face on a Beautiful Day,” by @emmaemurray.bsky.social is gorgeously written and viscerally felt. A worthy addition to the caustic exquisite literature she produces. AUGUST 26th from @apocalypseparty.bsky.social Review for: @lordtbrffa.bsky.social

Massive shoutout to B.R. Yeager who is spending this weekend slinging Apocalypse Party books at the RPM Fest launch party!

Hey, I wrote these books.

Something I miss about David Lynch is how he showed that beneath all the sickness and darkness, there was always an unwavering beauty and love worth living for.

Apocalypse Party has been my entire life for the past seven years, and I could use some support to help it continue to grow. Please consider donating to help us keep publishing boundary-pushing horror that pile drives you into the abyss. www.gofundme.com/f/help-fund-...

I'm almost done with it and I just need everyone to know that RAINBEAR!!!!!!!!! is really really good @onionflower.bsky.social

just found out I BELIEVE IN MISTER BONES has earned out its advance. big shoutout to all you... boneheads...? boners...? idk what to call fans of this book, but anyway, thank you. also a big thanks to @apocalypseparty.bsky.social for publishing it. here's to hoping it continues finding more readers.

read this book if you wanna lose your bones

#sludgepit NO TIGER is a collection of poetry from the underworld of Another place. it thrums with filthy anger:hot lyrics & prose poetry with ample destruction of body, sex after apocalypse, eradication of self w/n the hellscape of digitized warfare spectacle flakwolves.su/NoTigerbyMIK...

last year i messaged @slimyswampghost.bsky.social and asked if he had any spooky skeleton paintings hanging around we could use for my new novel and, as if he'd somehow planned this, this was already done, waiting for us. a perfect cover.

1. Negative Space by B.R. Yeager As of now, this is my favorite book. Internet fueled nihilistic angst in an economically run-down small American town where there's nothing to do but abuse vice and lechery. Deeply disturbing, a good book if you're in for a bad time. I saw a lot of my hometown here.

Emma E. Murray writes some of the bleakest, most vicious and unpleasant contemporary transgressive horror fiction I’ve read. This novel is exceptional and I highly recommend you put this on your radar for August 2025. Also that title is 🔥🤩❤️

THE PSYCHOGRAPHIST made it onto a best of the year list amongst a lot of other heavy hitters! lithub.com/17-of-the-be...

Recently, I’ve noticed a lot of people advising against engaging with dark or bleak art when you’re in a bad mental space, but all I can think about is how that kind of art has saved me from my worst impulses during my lowest points.

“Indiana Death Song,” the opening novella of this collection, blows the doors off the joint. It’s a huge statement piece: @fuckmaxbooth.bsky.social is here to stay. @apocalypseparty.bsky.social

My interview with the great @fuckmaxbooth.bsky.social is up! We’re talking about I Believe in Mr Bones, and also nonsense, it’s awesome: youtu.be/jPvPEggPN0A

Finished reading Negative Space by B.R. Yeager last night and this book fucked me up! It’s kinda like if Dennis Cooper decided to do kids on bike horror LOL Loved it!

Some light subway reading for today's catsitting commute

I don't think some of these authors are necessarily lesser known, but: Simon Kurt Unsworth, Lisa Tuttle, Elizabeth Engstrom, Robert Aickman, Jeremy Robert Johnson, Michael Shea, Karl Edward Wagner, T.E.D. Klein, Orrin Grey, Jeffrey Ford, Michael Wehunt, Attila Veres, Hailey Piper, B.R. Yeager...

read this thread before buying my book. CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED.

whoops! you have been blessed/cursed with an ADVERTISEMENT POST. from the time that you've seen this image, you have exactly one (1) hour to to order a copy of I BELIEVE IN MISTER BONES before you start feeling something odd and disturbing within your very skeleton. BEST OF LUCK!!!

No book title resonates with the spirit of our era more than BURN YOU THE FUCK ALIVE by B.R. Yeager.

one of the most important books of our time. it's like a jagged rusty knife across your soul.

I made an Apocalypse Party starter pack to celebrate the Bluesky return of @apocalypseparty.bsky.social A heavy metal acid trip via literature. Publishing books for the end of the world. Horror that pile drives you into the abyss. go.bsky.app/8iahAtV

guys... i think i wrote a cursed book 😬

💙📚 2 new-to-me books I've been dying to read because they have consistently been recommended by many, many people. I think one of these horrors will be my first read of the New Year... But which one? 🤔 -THIS THING BETWEEN US by Gus Moreno -NEGATIVE SPACE by B.R. Yeager

surprised and honored to hear my collection ABNORMAL STATISTICS made Talking Scared's Top 10 of 2023. talkingscared.buzzsprout.com/1322413/1417...

I got two books for Christmas and I’m so pumped! Really looking forward to Brave New Weird edited by @alexwoodroe.bsky.social and Negative Space by B R Yeager :)
