Got some real Friday afternoon goodness for y'all. Can't wait for folks to read this mournful slice of eco/cosmic horror rendered in beautiful prose.

I wrote about leaving the east coast and the disappointment of having a novella lose its home in a piece that's probably a little too honest about me. If you read it, you're lovely. sdnealwrites.substack.com/p/what-a-set...

Erika Kirk clogs up the left lane and makes sure no one can go around her during rush hour

@beegotten.bsky.social created something incredibly special for the first issue of NADIR. A contemplative and vicious tale about human brutality, forgiveness, and living on in memory. Read it and six other wonderfully weird tales in our inaugral issue. Available @ NADIRMagazine.com

One must enjoy seven servings of weird in these dark and weird times, especially now. Enjoy this feast of weird wonders, these outliers from the norm of other magazines.

The first issue is out!! Physical copies available from NADIRmagazine.com or catch me at Authorcon tomorrow. Digital from Amazon - or if you want to (rightfully) avoid using them, shoot me an email at [email protected]

The inaugural issue of NADIR releases this weekend! Visit The Zone with TT Madden and pray that none of its citizens notice you. NADIRMagazine.com

Excited to show off the cover for the inaugural issue of NADIR magazine! I can't wait for the end of this month and people to get a chance to read seven amazing stories by this incredibly talented group.

Today is the last day of the extended window! Go, send stories! Horror, sci-fi, comedy, romance, whatever you have as long as it's weird as heck. nadirmagazine.com for the guidelines

Just had our health insurance switch to United and... yeah, I get it

REMINDER: Today is the last day for the open subs, extended to August 15th for BIPOC authors. Closes at midnight, last place on Earth. But really, I'm not gonna check to see if you submitted a minute after midnight on the Baker Islands. Just don't take the piss. Full guidelines: nadirmagazine.com

There's something especially stinky about receiving rejections on a novella that lost its home. I KNOW this book is good enough to be published, it had a contract for pete's sake, the self doubt isn't logical, but it hits hard regardless.

Why is nothing ever as good as Silent Hill? Why can't more things be Silent Hill?

Are the neurotypicals okay?

"The cherry on a shit sundae" isn't something you hear on a federal contracting call every day.

Open now! Send me your most unhinged tales!! Full submission guidelines: nadirmagazine.com

I've been receiving emails for Lance Pittman for a solid month now and I really can't remember if I used a fake name to sign up for something or if someone has pulled a dastardly prank upon my inbox. Perhaps it was I, the dastard.

I made a substack post about my tumultous past year and what it taught me about writing as a creative outlet and as an industry. It'd mean a lot if you checked it out open.substack.com/pub/sdnealwr...

As we're about a week away from opening up I want to clarify: We believe trans kids have a right to exist, no one is illegal on stolen land, and in a free Palestine. This is to say if your socials or story have right wing bs, the sub is getting deleted without consideration or response.

Figure I'll throw it out here too - if any publisher feels like putting out a creature feature novelette, get at me. A swamp, airboats, and plenty of body parts floating around, what's not to love??

Two weeks away from opening up! Bring me your weird, your deranged, your sad, your horny, make me worry about how tf I'm going to edit your story.

My neurodivergent ass has finally learned that "hit me up if you need anything" and "feel free to reach out in the future" aren't meant sincerely. You people know you can just NOT say that, right? Shit's confusing.

Super excited to announce we'll be opening for subs in a few weeks. Bring us your weird! Full guidelines here: nadirmagazine.com

I've started a magazine! @nadirmagazine.bsky.social If you want to know more about me and why I've started one, go here: open.substack.com/pub/sdnealwr... If you want submission guidelines, go here: nadirmagazine.com

Decided to fuck around and query an agent before bed, should make for easy sleeping.

I have this completely irrational fear that one day I'm going to sneeze so hard that all of my top molars explore out of my gums and I'll try to explain what happened and blood will just dribble out of my mouth. And I don't know, I just felt like telling the internet this.

Mark Jaskowski's Beneath the Swimming Pools, the Teeth! is out today! Shit rips. Body horror weirdness wrapped in a 'what happened last night' mystery involving desperate folks doing low-level crimes. Get it from Weirdpunk or wherever. www.weirdpunkbooks.com

Obviously, I won't be at Stoker, but I do want to remind people that Stamford is having a No Kings protest on the 14th and think that'd be real neat if people showed up.

Does anyone still put together a monthly sub calls list? I remember there used to be google docs floating around and such.

Should probably put this here as well. Gonna be launching a weird fic mag this year. Just a little thing, but there needs to be more homes for strange tales so I'm making one. More details to come in July once I get all the admin stuff done, but yeah. It's happening.

Finding a new publisher for a book that lost its home is a whole new level of difficult.

Been in SF 10 minutes and seen someone shit on a car so this tracks

I can't believe John Denver wasn't from Denver. Next you're gonna tell me Jack London wasn't even English or something

There's something comforting about the fact that no matter where I am in the country if I see a car driving like they're trying to kill themselves and everyone around them there's a Florida plate on that mfer

Happy Book Birthday to Christopher Bond! We got some early reviews in... and uhh... everyone loves it. So grab yourself a copy, a cooler full of your favorite canned beverage, and uncover the dark, bloody secrets within. @thirdestatebooks.bsky.social @christopherbond.bsky.social

Good news! This little guy doesn't need surgery - he'll likely need steroid injections for the rest of his life but no going under the knife!

Today would've been the release of my debut novella. It's hard not to feel down and a little beaten today but I know TO LOVE A DYING WORLD will find a new home eventually. But for today I will curl up in blankets and eat ice cream.

Speak now or forever Rest In Peace! Please welcome for the first time... The Honored Guests of THE JOINING - SCENES OF WEDDING TERROR! @crystallake.bsky.social

My little cat Theo is getting an ultrasound rn to determine if he needs surgery or not So all the good thoughts out into the world please thank you
