My experience of working with Eric and Dark Moon Books has been very positive. Good covers, professional presentation, prompt payment and he actually promotes the book. If you write horror short stories, submit here.

I read an electronic version of this. Excellent stories and great art collected in the back. I highly recommend it.

Out today! Includes my story “I Send You a Kiss” alongside a whole slew of exquisitely creepy tales. Full TOC at the link below.

Perpetually working through the kinks of publishing, but today is Publication day for: +HORROR LIBRARY+ VOLUME 9 through @darkmoonbooks.bsky.social ! So absolutely proud of this anthology, perhaps the best one in the series so far!!! www.darkmoonbooks.com/Horror_Libra...

@ericjguignard.bsky.social it’s arrived! Thank you for sending me this beautiful addition to this series. Now, page the first… Cc: @darkmoonbooks.bsky.social

I'm not saying that @ericjguignard.bsky.social used me as a cover model for #Horror Library vol. 9. But I'm not not saying it, either. Thrilled to be in a ToC filled with luminaries like Poppy Z. Brite, Delilah Dawson, KC Grifant, Mercedes Yardley & many others.

5-star review for BLOOD RED META by Michael Aronovitz www.amazon.com/Blood-Red-Me... Can a book be “fun”, “bleak”, and “horrific” all at the same time? The answer is yes, if it’s BLOOD RED META by Michael Aronovitz. A twisting plot of high-stakes survival and pathos…

I am so thrilled that my story “You Know How This Will End” will be part of Horror Library Volume 9! I’ve been tinkering with this story since 2021, and Eric’s keen editorial eye unlocked the best version of it. Can’t wait to share it with the world!

Full contents for +Horror Library+ Vol. 9, edited by @ericjguignard.bsky.social now available at the Dark Moon Books website. Includes my story 'False Witness' and a bunch of other great tales www.darkmoonbooks.com/Horror_Libra...

I worked at my daughter’s elementary school this week with the Scholastic Book Fair! Besides the joy of reliving my childhood with the book fair, now I get to talk to children about books and suggest recommendations of author friends… such as RIDE OR DIE by Delilah S. Dawson!

Ran a 5K today at the Chino Valley YMCA Reindeer Romp! I P.R.’d and came overall #117 out of 569. My varsity-Cross Country son Julian took second place overall with 16:37. Once upon a time I could outrun him. Now he smokes me every time.

What a pleasure to have met author @tkingfisher.com (Ursula Vernon) at #Loscon 51 in Los Angeles this weekend after having just read her Hugo-award-winning novel NETTLE & BONE! Absolutely cannot wait to read WOLF WORM when releases in early 2026. #tkingfisher #ursulavernon

Happy heavenly birthday to my younger brother, Jeff G. He should have turned 47 today. He is still missed immensely, more than anything. #fuckcancer
