I really enjoyed the first half of STRANGER THINGS s5, but it also reminded me a lot of my unpublished Gothic Biopunk cosmic horror fantasy, with some extremely similar images. I still feel so sad that I couldn't find an agent for that book, because it's still my favorite thing I've ever written.

I did an unhinged SPOILER INTERVIEW with @emzbox.bsky.social! If you've finished reading LILITU: BLOODY CALEB, this interview might give some insight as to why I wrote it the way I did. If you haven't finished the book yet, may want to wait until you have: horroraddicts.wordpress.com/2025/11/26/a...

OMG My favorite director noticed me!

@realgdt.bsky.social's FRANKENSTEIN is a haunting Gothic masterpiece. I was lucky enough to attend a 35mm screening of the film at Hollywood's Egyptian Theater with @ruthiewrites91.bsky.social, & it was an exquisitely beautiful adaptation of Mary Shelley's novel.

No, autism isn't caused by taking tylenol during pregnancy. Tylenol didn't hit pharmacy shelves until 1960. Autism was first coined in 1911 and first officially diagnosed in 1943. As usual, Brain Worms Man and Cheeto Benito have no idea what they're talking about.

Don's Horror Reads was good enough to reach out to interview me about LILITU: BLOODY CALEB! I talk deep about some of my thought process behind the book's depiction of Hell, my writing journey so far, and some of what inspired the series. donshorrorreads.blogspot.com/2025/09/inte...

my favorite part of the current season of Strange New Worlds is when Captain Batel says to Captain Pike, about them moving in together, that there's not room for her, with all his hair-care products. I mean—the dude does have some amazing hair. must take some serious time.

“hope for the best, but prepare for the worst” but it’s prepare for the worst prepare for the worst prepare for the worst prepare for the worst

Notice how not a SINGLE CLIP of Charlie Kirk is being shown on TV as the news organizations try to eulogize him kindly. Even Fox News. You cannot show a SINGLE THING he ever said that wasnt spewing HATE and violence. What a legacy.

#FREEBOOK @crystallake.bsky.social Enjoy Gothic Horror? Then check out SAINTKILLER, a FREE NOVEL I wrote so people can check out my LILITU universe. I'm really proud of how it turned out, and hope you'll give it a read whether you read the first one or not! dl.bookfunnel.com/jod64iv98m

The president says DC has been "taken over by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals." Technically, he's not wrong, because that perfectly describes his own administration: a violent gang of bloodthirsty criminals. And given today's blatant act of Martial Law, it's only going to get worse.

Really sad to learn the downtown Berkeley Half Price Books is closing down in November. I have a lot of good memories there. :/

In a world where monsters rule, @jonathan-fortin.bsky.social Lilitu: The Memoirs of a Succubus is a gothic horror thrill ride where sex and violence are the only means of survival. The next great dark fantasy series to rival Kushiel's Legacy, The First Law Trilogy, and The Black Company.

If you've got the time, you can listen to the pretty enjoyable Superman Radio show where Clark Kent and Jimmy Olsen face down the Klan, youtu.be/H29BlTaYZ0U Honestly, pretty great stuff if only for the retro campiness. Just gotta add a small warning about the old Chinese accent they give Dr. Lee.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

Wait - what is happening right now?? 🎇🎉🐈

Fancy new pencil holder for my fancy art pencil.
