We're sending out waves of copies of NOT A SPECK OF LIGHT (limited hardcover) by @lairdbarron.bsky.social each day. Thank you for your patience as we juggle this mailing and about a gazillion other projects.

I don't remember who but someone posted a Zdzisław Beksiński piece and now I'm obsessed. You get all the extra credit points if you can pronounce his name correctly.

In (or near) Los Angeles? Come out to the Aero Theater and let Chris, me & AMC feed you popcorn and candy while you watch ep. 1 of THE TERROR: DEVIL IN SILVER. Come see the horror on the big screen. After that, we’ll have a little Q&A. Event is free. RSVP in the link!
