This is just lovely. Very Philly and very Gritty.

I dreamt I launched the coolest book - a coffee table book of hauntings, all vignettes and eerie item descriptions, glossy full color pages, and illustrations, and pieces that folded out. I wish I could remember the stories. I signed a copy for @sarahpinsker.bsky.social with a cool custom stamp too.

An effective story of time travel and taking responsibility for one's actions, even as a low-level functionary on the margins of violence - Espie Droger Dreams of War by @matthewkressel.net www.lightspeedmagazine.com/fiction/espi...

A great deal on my ghostly collection! 💀💀💀

Let us haunt you!

This afternoon, I drove past a sign promising Fresh Cookies. The sign, as far as I could tell, was in a graveyard. I didn't see anything in the immediate area that would qualify as a traditional purveyor of baked goods. Baking ghosts? Story prompt? Trap? Yes to all?

Just a reminder that this fabulous reading event is happening tonight! If you're in the Baltimore area, join us for some excellent fiction and unbeatable views!

This was such a wonderful conversation! Come join us and see what we have to say about horror!

Icymi, my interview on the blog with @acwise.bsky.social

Eeee!!!! I am absolutely thrilled and delighted to see that Wolf Moon, Antler Moon made the final Stoker Award Ballot in the long fiction category. Huge congratulations to all my fellow finalists! I don't think it's online yet, but it's in an HWA email so it's really real! 🐺🌕🦌🌕

A very happy book birthday to @matthewkressel.net! The Rainseekers is a lovely and hopeful novella, and we could all use a little hope right now, no? Think Canterbury Tales on Mars, with a group of travelers looking to witness the first rain on the red planet.

Even though the graphic says coming soon, the audiobook version of Ballad of the Bone Road is officially out today! www.audible.com/pd/Ballad-of...

Psst! The WSFA Small Press Awards are now open for submission of works originally published in 2025. locusmag.com/2026/02/2026...
