Spotted in Gettysburg: a cat and its imitators

Here in Gettysburg, PA, home of this metal bear, to attend @voidcon.bsky.social. Will this be the most historic event ever to happen in Gettysburg? Let’s find out!

"It is very rare for horror stories to make me feel actual horror and revulsion but [Lupus in Fabula] nailed it!" -Cassandra on Goodreads Ready to experience the horror and revulsion for yourself? Snag the book here: www.cursedmorselspress.com/product/lupu...

I had the pleasure of reading frequent CHM author D. Matthew Urban's collection, SHAKY PICTURES OF VANISHED FACES. Tight prose and imaginative stories. Highly recommended for fans of weird fiction. https://bit.ly/485sF0h

"Bake him away, toys!"

not only is it time for FLESH, but fun fact - i'll be making a custom illustration / collage for every piece in this zine! 🥩🖊

Post a you from a different era

Totally thrilled to have a story coming in the next issue of Weird Horror!

I used to get paranoid whenever I'd see a post like "today's weird fiction/horror sucks because of XYZ." "Oh no," I'd think, "they're talking about me!" Well, I finally swallowed my pride and DM'd one of those posters. Turns out they weren't talking about me at all! They were talking about you

I went on the Dead Languages Podcast and all I got was this creeping sense of unease as the world disintegrates around me! Listen to me chat with PLM and Carson about disorientation in horror, fun ways to collapse reality, and NYC's plague of sexy, sexy rats

There are cryptids everywhere for those with the eyes to see

plenty of good ideas here if you're looking for fun weekend activities

WTF did I just read?! @breathinghead.bsky.social's Zygote City in This Exquisite Topology is one hell of a wild ride. I might have to re-read it, but that's okay because I loved it. @angrygablepress.bsky.social

Thankfully, most of the Other Daves have been located, extracted and placed in appropriate habitats. Other Daves #5 and #9, still at large, can be recognized by their over-large teeth and confusing eyes, respectively. Be cautious! Do not let them beguile you!

Attention, weird horror lovers of the Texas Panhandle! From 5:00 to 6:30 this Thursday, I'll be at Burrowing Owl Books in my hometown of Amarillo (Wolflin Center, 2461 I-40), signing copies of my collection, Shaky Pictures of Vanished Faces. Come say hi!

spotted in Austin: a big thing of parakeets

Studies in Suffocation I, Robyn O’Neil. Seen at the Menil Collection, always one of my first stops when I’m in Houston

Swung by Ghoulish Books while rambling through Texas, and I'm so glad I did! It was awesome to meet @fuckmaxbooth.bsky.social, pick up a book that's been on my list for a long time (A Spectral Hue by Craig Laurance Gidney), and sign some copies of SPOVF!

Congrats and many happy returns to @erikmchatton.bsky.social! Straw World is excellent, a treat for anyone who likes their stories weird, cosmic and unsparing

The stories in my collection are full of decay, dissolution, collapse and confusion, just like the real world. But unlike the real world (as far as I know), they've also got alchemical flesh parasites, arachnid aunts, and Aeolian harps that play the all-consuming music of sorrow

NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE

Happy 228th birthday to Mary Shelley! Taking the occasion to re-read her great Gothic story "Transformation": gutenberg.org/cache/epub/5...

Worth remembering that any time I say "It's happening!" I'm talking about The Happening (2008), directed by M. Night Shyamalan and starring Mark Wahlberg, Zooey Deschanel, John Leguizamo, and Betty Buckley

Fungal guttation is always cause for celebration, but especially when it’s on the weeping polypore, Pseudoinonotus dryadeus! #mushrooms #FungiFriends

Really enjoyed Never Leaving by @elfordalley.bsky.social from @infestedpublishing.bsky.social. A wild, grungy haunted-house story with a beating heart amid the blood and guts, and just the right amount of chainsaw mayhem

Four journalists were killed by an Israeli strike on a Gaza hospital today, including Mariam Dagga, a freelancer with the @apnews.com. She has a 12-year-old son, who was evacuated from Gaza earlier in the war. She was a true hero, like all of our Palestinian colleagues in Gaza. tinyurl.com/3cn5c9vb

Zach Cregger loves it when an emaciated, stringy-haired woman looms out of the darkness, teeth bared. He can't get enough of it

Shout out to the very drunk moviegoer who got ejected from Weapons for yelling "FUCK YOU!" upon being shushed for whispering. The kind of experience streaming just can't provide

Happy first birthday to this truly wonderful collection! If you haven’t read Glass Stories yet what the HECK are you waiting for

This is one of my favorite collections of the past few years, and now there’s a free zine bundle if you buy today! What are you waiting for? Mouthparts, friends. I don’t know why this tickles me so. I will never shut up about that. The story I’m referencing is brilliant. They’re all brilliant 🐞

broke: death of the author woke: a current under sea / picked the author's bones in whispers. as the author rose and fell / they passed the stages of their age and youth / entering the whirlpool

I love working with overlapping or ambiguous tones! For me, that in-between quality is a big part of what makes weird fiction go. So many of my favorite weird authors, from Machen to Nogle, are masters of slipperiness. I'm always delighted when readers enjoy that aspect of my stories!

Almost missed International Cat Day! Pancake hopes you had a good one

Very glad to have a story in this anthology! Ever wonder what happened to all those short-lived 19th-century utopian communities? Curious about an exciting new trend in couples therapy? Either way, "Zygote City" has you covered.

Gretchen got suspended, so we have to extra spread the word about Black Flame's release. I had the chance to read it a few months back and it's such a brutal hard look at cultural trauma, assimilation, self hatred, revenge, and the messiness of history. It will knock your socks off

My stories mostly don't take place in the "same world," but sometimes a tunnel opens between them and things slip through. For example, I'm pretty sure the special blend in "Six Figures" comes from the coffee shop around the corner in "Dreamland Coffee" (but WHICH coffee shop around the corner?)

Happy International Owl Awareness Day!
