Read 20 of 2026 was Wilson by Jack Finn. One of the best parts about being an author is getting to know a whole bunch of other authors and getting a chance to read their books. I couldn’t wait to get into this one. If you like a creepy carnival story give this one a read. I couldn’t put it down. 5/5

I’ll be finishing my current novel soon and I’ve started brainstorming for my next novel. Here’s a couple photos of where I’ve been in my head the last few months (off the coast of Cape Cod) and where I’m headed next (the west). As always, keep reading and I’ll keep the books coming.

A blurb from the awesome @joescipione.bsky.social! Wildcat Thicket is out next week from @infestedpublishing.bsky.social and I hope you check it out!!!

I’ve gotten better at marketing, but as ever, I continue to learn. Today my 1st book is being re-released & I hope you check it out. Or if you already have, give it a boost. Perhaps we’ll get it in front of a pair of eyes that understand my type of justice. shotgunhoney.com/books/catalo...

Preorder for Eater of Dreams is live now.

Starting in on this one by Scott Kenemore.

It’s less than two weeks until Halloween, need a spooky book to get you in the mood? Mr. Nightmare is by far my most popular book. It’s set in the 80’s and is Stranger Things meets Are You Afraid of the Dark? What’s not to love.

The Patriots may have lost (and they didn’t look very good) but football is back baby!

I just finished this beast of a book. I love Ron Chernow’s work and this book is no exception. Twain was a much more complex person than I realized. It’s amazing chronicle of his life and thought. If you’re a fun of massive biographies give this a read.

Putting the “Water” in Portuguese Water Dog.

Wow! The visuals in Vesper were off the charts. Good movie and beautiful to watch.

I’ve been working on this pirate horror novel for a few months now and Alestorm is most likely going to make an appearance in my Spotify wrapped at the end of the year.

This was amazing and you can check the full review out here! substack.com/@scarlettano... @watertowerhill.bsky.social @joescipione.bsky.social @caleb-jones-author.bsky.social #anomalyreviews #indiebooks #indiehorror #indieauthors #horror #booksky 💙📚🩸

New tshirts coming soon to the webshop. Who wants one?

Eater of Dreams - Mr. Nightmare 3 is coming soon. You still have time to read the first two books before the final entry in the series drops.

I was treading water in one of my WIP’s the last few days. Then I took a walk yesterday and listened to A Perfect Circle and Audioslave and my head cleared. I got back home and banged out 2k words like nothing.

Your Pope name is: Last thing you ate + number of letters in your first name. I’m Pope Meatball III

Great ready for the YouTube Dreapop drop of Dreadful Discussions with guest Joe Scipione Tonight at 7pm!! Be there or be dreadful 😂 @joelaustin.bsky.social @caleb-jones-author.bsky.social @joescipione.bsky.social youtu.be/DOPK-eLd5JU?... #booksky 💙📚🩸 #indiehorror #indieauthors #indiehorror

This morning at Panera. A few minutes later the cup floated away.

Been listening to St. John from Aerosmith a ton lately. This song goes pretty hard in the second half and the guitar is heavy af. Wildly underrated song.

I had to write this up for an upcoming release. It’s pretty impressive to see it all on one list like that.

The best hour of TV every week. Thank you for this @billsimmons.bsky.social

Did you like the movie Poor Things? I loved it and it has similar themes to my book Never Dead. These two are like cousins in the Frankenstein family tree.

Someone asked today if I’ve ever written straight up mystery/detective book. I told them I hadn’t but And The I Killed All the Ghosts is about as close as you can get to an old school detective book. If you like those 1950’s noir detective novels, you’re going to like this book.

I used to think I had to sit down and write every day to be a writer. Now I know that “write everyday” doesn’t means sitting down at the computer and typing every day. Sometimes the best “writing” is done in your head while you walk around a lake.

I’ve got a lot of balls in the air right now, so what does my brain do tonight? It starts thinking about diving back into this world again because we all need more pirate horror in our lives, right?

Book haul from B&N. Lots of hardcovers thanks to the 50% off hardcover sale.

A sci-fi detective comedy narrated by a footnoting coffee machine robot, set in a continent-spanning mall. “Sure to appeal to fans of Douglas Adams, this zany, uproarious mystery is a constant delight.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) www.amazon.com/Great-Americ...

Got a promo for some of my back catalog that could use some fresh eyes on them! Thanks as always for the boost! bsky.app/profile/tdcl...
