Been a weird year in terms of writing (read: not good) but I have been busy this fall doing editing for SPLIT SCREAM for @tenebrouspress.bsky.social and formatting books for @sleyhouseeditor.bsky.social, and I can mayyybe see a window opening up to get back to writing soon??

Built a compost bin over the weekend and immediately found enough materials to fill it completely, which was kinda satisfying. Domestic yard and garden stuff is my life right now I guess and it's not bad?

They took down a juggernaut. Wow.

A very happy birthday to Split Scream Volume 2! Released 3 years ago today, it’s still available through @tenebrouspress.bsky.social spend some time with my lesbian Los Angeles vore horror novelette, What Ate the Angels + @cynthiasaysboo.bsky.social store.tenebrouspress.com/products/spl...

Watched The Fall of the House of Usher this week and finally found out what y'all were talking about 2 years ago. It's good!

Listening to music and playing with LEGO with my son, aka having the best damn time

All in on The Chair Company

It's the one year anniversary of Split Scream 6 and my novelette, MOTHER IS COMING HOME (@tenebrouspress.bsky.social)! I put together a playlist that that encapsulates the vibes of MICH and the weird little creep MC. open.spotify.com/playlist/0EW...

Wednesday nights this month are filled with 3 hours of climbing (bouldering) league followed by an hour of hockey that gets me home around midnight, and while it's a blast, these Thursdays man, ugh 😴

Spent the afternoon organizing all the native perennial seeds my wife and I collected from our rain garden. Hopefully we can expand the garden with these. Nature!

The last watermelon harvested from our garden was a monster, and perhaps the best tasting watermelon I've ever had. Kinda sad we have to wait until next year to grow more.

Took my son to his first professional hockey game last night (a local AHL team) and it brings me such joy to watch him experience new things. We had a blast, and the takeaway might be just how absurd hot dog cannons are. In his words: "This is getting *too* crazy!" haha

It's really disgusting that the recovering skin around the burn on my arm looks like the edges of a roasted marshmallow. Then again. Hmm

It's been so long since I've written consistently that I don't even feel like a writer. Like, I know I am, but yikes man, I need to find that shit again

Re-potted our little pawpaws to better accommodate their taproots, planted some black walnut seeds for a tree-growing experiment, and then tomorrow I'm off to my favorite native plant nursery for some more native trees/shrubs/perennials. All of these things are better than everything else, currently

I'm so excited to be a part of the Tenebrous release schedule! I'd trust 10p with anything but song recommendations* *this isn't true, but I just felt like being needlessly hurtful

Got a 2nd deg burn from coffee today at work because a giant idiot set up a ladder behind a closed door and a lesser idiot (me) tried to open the door (that I had just walked thru 2 mins earlier) while carrying a mug full of freshly brewed coffee, spilling said coffee all over my arm. Neat

I wrote and published a dinosaur horror book that not many people have read for a variety of reasons, but I don't think that's going to stop me from writing another because I had fun doing so and it's what I want to do and wtf else matters you know?

I'm just a guy trying to avoid all work responsibilities by researching what native trees to plant in his suburban yard

The 1 year anniversary of Split Scream 6 is coming up! To celebrate, I had some stickers made. You can get your own when you order SS6 from @tenebrouspress.bsky.social or by coming up and saying the secret word: “ooze.” Hail ooze! Hail slime!

Came across a YouTube video of someone playing through Chaos Island: The Lost World for PC and was immediately catapulted back into childhood

Flash on the Borderlands is here with one of my all time favorite @alexebenstein.bsky.social stories! Keep your eyes on the Michigan skies. (And keep your ears on @pseudopod.org.) podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

We ended up harvesting about 25 pumpkins from our modest yard garden this year, which is awesome. But now I want to try growing gigantic pumpkins, because who doesn't love gigantic pumpkins?

The Tigers make me sad. Fun season, tough way to go. Insanely fun/stupid Game 5 to end the season. Go whoever beats the stupid ass Dodgers

Jack again oh no

can we get runs NOW please????

Jack just tried to kill me but we're still kicking what a world

Can the Tigers please score runs and win already

I have a story on PseudoPod! This one means a lot to me. Check it out?

Tabling at a "spooky open mic night" tonight and hopefully selling some books!

Coming this November! Cerulean Sky is a story about absolution set in an America that’s been ravaged by a disease that turns people incorporeal. It’s my love letter to The Stand! polymathpress.com/products/cer...

I think my eyes are going to start bleeding from trying to decipher construction plans from civil engineers. They might have benefitted from a stronger focus on communications in their education, I should think

Rec hockey league this session has late games that get me home close to midnight, and of course I'm wired after playing. Gonna be lots of late Wednesday nights for a while (or, I guess, early Thursday mornings? ugh)

Didn't realize how much of a feel good time I was getting myself into by starting The Life of Chuck (film) tonight, man

That bastard, impostor syndrome, can take a hike, ya know?

HUGE NEWS DAY! We have a new @egallagher.bsky.social SPLIT SCREAM cover to share! (In lesser news, there's a new T-Swift album! And that is literally all the news.) Anyway! SPLIT SCREAM: CURSED PLACES! Featuring novelettes from @sonorataylor.bsky.social & @matthewtpritt.bsky.social April 2026🖤☠️

Woo hoo! Don't miss what might be my weirdest tale yet!

Swifties and horror fans haven't been this excited together since sharing a hotel at Pittsburgh StokerCon 2023

LET'S GO

Criterion Channel not messing around this month. Dropping those "Directed by John Carpenter," "Body Horror," and "2000s Horror" collections like they know I want to shirk all responsibility and just watch movies for next several weeks

How does a *sports guy* like Olbermann make such a terrible sports take? What?

Detroit Tigers. Never a doubt, obviously

One of the coolest things I could possibly imagine is finding out your story submission was rejected by seeing the pre order announcement of the finished book. Right? Super cool when publishers/editors do that, right??

If something breaks at your house, inevitably, the first trip to the home improvement store will not be your last

Ope, looks like we might be adding another peach and pear tree to our little orchard tomorrow. That'll make ten fruit trees. Probably enough (for now)

A couple years ago a coworker won a free donut every day for a year from a local bakery and I just found out she only went 6 times. WHAT

I made a map of my yard so I could draw out existing trees and gardens and plan future native landscaping because I desperately need something offline to occupy my mind

Rec hockey league starts back up tonight. Excited to get back on the ice. Hopefully my old man back doesn't let me down

Don't forget ALL IS LOST on your Robert Redford movie lists. RIP
