A Blood as Bright as the Moon is one month old! To mark the occasion the wizards at @titanbooks.bsky.social have made a beautiful booktrailer, at the end of which you can see some endorsements, from Mariana Enriquez, @unheimlichmanvr.bsky.social and @ericlarocca.bsky.social ❤️🌕🩸

the latest new & restocked horror available at b&n sioux falls!

Things are powerfully bad right now, bleak business in and around every corner, so I feel like I need to counterbalance just a little, just a touch, with a daily nature pic for a while. So today's pic is a cheeky little red-eyed vireo in a magnolia tree. Photo by me.

A Blood as Bright as the Moon, by @andreamorstabilini.bsky.social (pub by @titanbooks.bsky.social), is a different take on the vampire myth, a queer gothic horror novel that experiments with genres and writing styles to deliver a powerful experience. Full thoughts: jamreads.com/reviews/a-bl... 💙📚

finally, the September shopping list is live! new books from @almakatsu.bsky.social @brianmcwriter.bsky.social @haileypiperfights.bsky.social @ericlarocca.bsky.social @sarahgailey.bsky.social @claymcleod.bsky.social @tkingfisher.com @brackenmacleod.bsky.social @bitterkarella.bsky.social & MANY more!

ME: Okay, time to just blow through these copyedits! BOOK: 468 pages ME: …fuck.

I have the best publisher. Thank you @titanbooks.bsky.social for this and thank you to the whole team, @dancarpenter.bsky.social, @baharkutluk.bsky.social, @fallintofiction.bsky.social, Katherine, Caitlin and Hannah. I'm oh so lucky! 🧛🏻‍♂️🦇🌕🩸

maybe one of the weirder books I've read this year, but incredibly imaginative and excellent all the same. See my full spoiler free review for A Blood as Bright as the Moon by @andreamorstabilini.bsky.social over on my IG www.instagram.com/abrittlebee/...

We're only 10 days into September and we've already received all these fantastic brand new #SFF paperbacks! Nice to see some good horror coming out in time for spooky season too #Halloween 💀🍁 Which would you choose? Titles and authors in alt/below 💙📚🪐 #Horrorsky

Booked accommodations for the @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social Really looking forward to those five days in Brighton! 🧛🏻‍♂️

It's Mailbag Monday!! This week brings us gay monsters from the vampiric to the lupine, haunted houses & far future hustlers, a Rome that wasn't, weird cities, magic schools, dark Filipino short stories, world history, & a pattern deck from the world of the Rook and the Rose. What looks good to you?

Slightly diminish a book: Interview with the Umpire

So many incredible horror books come out on the 9th. So proud of @manylittlewords.bsky.social and ROOTS OF MY FEARS, @claymcleod.bsky.social and ACQUIRED TASTE, and @johnnymains.co.uk whose BOUND IN BLOOD anthology gets a paperback outing. Read more horror. Buy more horror.

A photo of strength, confidence, audacity and charm.

Spotted at Queer Lit Manchester by amazing shelf neighbour @noahmedlock.bsky.social. 🧛🏻‍♂️🦇🌕🩸🌺🌸🌿💀 Still crazy to see BLOOD out in the wild. Go Queer Team @titanbooks.bsky.social!

I loved Alien: Earth's fifth episode foray into monster-on-a-ship territory. Genuinely tense, extremely gloopy, and ten times better than any of the prequels.

Dead Weight, my new (and quite bloody, if I say so myself) horror thriller, comes out next May. And right now B&N has a 25% discount offer on preorders! It's hard to overstate how important preorders are for a book and I would be so very grateful if you would share this post for me, dear friends ❤️

Can't believe BLOOD's already 3 days old! 🧛🏻‍♂️🦇🌕🩸 Initial reaction has been GREAT, but we need to keep momentum! So if you're heading to @barnesandnoble.com to take advantage of their pre-order sale, remember that BLOOD (not included in the sale, of course) is a click away: bit.ly/47ivZVr Thank you! 🙏🏻

I did an interview to celebrate A BLOOD AS BRIGHT AS THE MOON publication! 🧛🏻‍♂️🦇🌕🩸 Herein I reveal which part was the most difficult to wrangle and I also give a sneaky sneak peek into the next project with mad @dancarpenter.bsky.social & @titanbooks.bsky.social 🌀🌫️ tinyurl.com/nhjwd8un

Blood as Bright as the Moon is a lyrical, visceral & strange new vampire tale by @andreamorstabilini.bsky.social, out now! #Vampires hope to escape a world they don't belong in by fleeing to a mystical sanctuary (built by Mad King Ludwig II!) but a sinister secret society has other ideas... 💙📚🪐

Please raise a glass of whatever you're having to @andreamorstabilini.bsky.social and his exquisite English language debut, A BLOOD AS BRIGHT AS THE MOON. A vampire novel, steeped in a love of literature, history and quite unlike anything you'll have read before. Out today @titanbooks.bsky.social

It's after midnight in NY so Night and Day's pub date has arrived. It's available as a trade paperback, audio book, and ebook. If you enjoy it, please consider mentioning it on your social media and/or review it. Thanks everyone. www.simonandschuster.com/books/Night-...

BLOOD publishes today! 🧛🏻‍♂️🦇🌕🩸 I’m feeling as if I’m on a rollercoaster, speeding (and looping) through several different emotions, the most prominent of which are fear and incredulous happiness. But I’m also proud of BLOOD and can’t wait for you to read it or listen to it. (More below!)

🌟Shortlisted for the 2025 Ursula K. Le Guin Prize for Fiction🌟 Revolutionary-minded and dizzyingly intricate, Vajra Chandrasekera’s Rakesfall defies narrative expectations as it considers history, power, perspective, resistance, and the “dread scale” of myth and nightmare.

if you’re not committed in defense of everyone’s rights to erotic expression, pleasure, and desire, as a part of life and art that’s valuable and vital to thriving for so many (especially queer) people… you’re not my colleague or ally. And you need to catch the fuck up real quick.

I'm putting this gently out there: does anyone know a sensitivity reader who might want to work with representations of indigenous peoples of the Amazon, 1900-ish? TIA!

I'm rooting VERY HARD for this!

Proud to be featured in this lineup 🌈

Happy pride everyone! 🌈

The finished copies of A BLOOD AS BRIGHT AS THE MOON 🧛🏻‍♂️🦇🌕🩸 are here! Out from @titanbooks.bsky.social on September 2nd!
