Just got my contributor copies for PUNK GOES HORROR II: HARDCORE FOR THE ENCORE, featuring my story “Hidden Track.” This anthology is so cool, it’s even got an A & B Side for readers to flip over and churn through. So happy to end the album. Thanks @nwreader.bsky.social @spookysterling.bsky.social

Tomorrow's @thisishorror.bsky.social news is on the schedule but, #ICYMI - here are last week's new & forthcoming horrors: www.thisishorror.co.uk/news-round-u... The Swallowed Town & Other Rabbit Holes You Should Avoid by @cfpage.bsky.social - coming 20 January @nwreader.bsky.social ... 1/2

It's all deja vu with CM/Hedone and just brings up a familiar disappointment all over again. Authors that were orphaned, you can always reach out to Truborn and see if your stories fit in here. Or I can help you try to find homes elsewhere.

Unfortunately small presses close all the time, and their baby bird books need to find a new nest. My fledgling sun-vampire queer cannibal novella, SUNBATHERS, now needs a new home, as does my sapphic pirate novella QUEEN O'NINE TAILS. If you know a toothy little home for either, please hit me up!

Early readers have spoken. So much dread. “It’s a literary achievement of the highest order… epic, cosmic horror and existential dread.” 📖 The Swallowed Town by @cfpage.bsky.social 🗓️ 1/20/26 🛒 Preorder: sholink.to/the-swallowe... Embrace your strange
