This book is fantastic. Go preorder it. You’ll love it.

Saw this ad for a goat on Facebook. It’s perhaps the greatest advert I’ve ever read. It’s just superb.

Aww… This picture of @briankeene.bsky.social from our honeymoon just popped up. He’s a handsome fella. ❤️ One might even say…outstanding in his field. 👀 Thank you, thank you, I’ll be here all week. 🫡

Things you don’t expect to say in general conversation. Me: “No, @briankeene.bsky.social, you can’t just substitute @timlebbon.bsky.social in your plan to fake your own death. No cool.” #lifewithbrian

I'm getting back into the gear of things -- more slowly than I had anticipated, but I'm doing it. if you don't know me, that's okay. I'm a horror and dark fantasy writer, primarily cosmic horror. You can check out stuff about me here: www.marysangiovanni.com

This week's shout-out from my students regarding writers that inspire them goes to @gabino.bsky.social and his book HOUSE OF BONE AND RAIN.

Not doing too many appearances this year, but I'm doing this. Come check it out! Ticket info here: www.eventbrite.com/e/christophe...

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is delightful. Recommended if you’re into 12 Monkeys, Brazil, and other surreal science fiction flicks.

I actually just texted the sentence, "Once I almost tackled a clown with an invisible dog," and it's a true statement. The clown had the invisible dog, to be clear -- not me. I have a weird life.

Sooo…the Instacart driver just caught me belting out SOMEONE YOU LOVE like I was giving a one-woman comeback concert for the cats. My slow slide toward crazy cat lady at the end of the street begins.

Saw BACKROOMS and OBESSION in the last week or so, and wow - if this is what young folks are doing with horror, we’re in good, terrifying hands. If you haven’t seen these movies, go fix that. Fantastic stuff.

Hey peep me talking about cosmic horror, working in comics, and more!

Just in time for #stokercon, here's the May Wireside Chat, featuring Online MFA instructor @marysangiovanni.bsky.social! youtu.be/j7FI94z5zkE

This week's shoutouts to writers who my students list as inspirations are @cgolden.bsky.social and @stephengrahamjones.com

So I suppose I should get myself over to Threads. I hear there’s been an appreciation of @briankeene.bsky.social going on over there for the last four days and someone needs to set these people straight. 🤣

Very proud of my girl 💜

Good morning. In honor of me and Mary's wedding anniversary, here's a story about how a novel written by two people whom I dearly love came about. Plus, if you thought Stan Lee & Jack Kirby's relationship was something, Gary Gygax & Dave Arneson say "Hold our beer" www.briankeene.com/algorithmzer...

I’m beyond thrilled to announce that my novel, THE EVERYWHERE HOUSE, has sold to Page Street Publishing! I think they’re shooting for fall 2027 release. It means so much to me that this book is coming out. Thank you to Page Street & to my agent, Elizabeth Copps. Details soon! 😃

Someone is very happy to have his kitty home from the hospital. ❤️💕

My own personal shoutouts to authors who inspire me, specifically in the cosmic horror realm: @ramseycampbell.bsky.social @haileypiperfights.bsky.social @toddkeisling.com @victorlavalle.bsky.social @lairdbarron.bsky.social. Read them. Read Thomas Ligotti and Caitlyn R. Kiernan. 1/2

So @briankeene.bsky.social just FaceTimed me from David Lee Roth’s tour bus…there’s no way this can end well, right? 🤣

This week's shout-out to a writer my students admire is (and rightfully so) @johnlangan.bsky.social

On this week's episode of Keeneversations, @mauricebroaddus.bsky.social make a surprise (and surprised) appearance, and @marysangiovanni.bsky.social figures out what the word "Retirement" means to somebody like me. Available on patreon and Spotify. www.patreon.com/posts/two-ge...

If you’ve never read any of my books, maybe try this one: Ever wonder where people go when they go missing?

And Mary’s news, never flirting, still is sitting, still is sitting… But soon….

Have good book news I'm sitting on, and I'm super excited and really want to talk about it but can't yet but YAY.

for International Bat Appreciation Day

it sticks in my craw that I have to pay a boatload in taxes to a government I loathe so they can keep doing things that embarrass us as a country and hurt other people.

Keep fingers crossed that the book news I get tomorrow is good....

This week's student shout-out as a fan of a writer I know is for @brianevenson.bsky.social --"Seaside Town" was noted a short story fave.

For my fellow audiobook fans Thrall by @marysangiovanni.bsky.social from @crossroadpress.bsky.social is like $3 on audible today. I just grabbed a copy.

It’s still dark out. The world is cold, drizzly, and quiet. It is so early that my head hurts and my eyes itch. My vision is blurry. I am not a morning person. I don’t know how you morning people do it.

It’s also time for my annual warm and fuzzy salute to allergy season

Didn’t sleep for more than an hour or two last night, and am driving three hours today. If I owe you something, I am aware of it, and will get it to you as soon as possible.

In keeping with sharing when my students are fans of writers I know, this week's student shout-out is for @ceejthemoment.bsky.social

#WiHM First found poem for today is @marysangiovanni.bsky.social #booksky

If you like werewolves and you haven't read this anthology, you're missing out. Check it out: www.amazon.com/Strange-New-...

If you’ve never read her, check out the works of @marysangiovanni.bsky.social. For meticulous craft, for inducing dread, for sheer storytelling, she’s one of the best in the business.

Will have some good news and upcoming shenanigans to report soon. 😏 Not quite yet, but soon…

Aww 🥰 thanks 😊

Aww thank you! 😊 💕

My first-ever art show!

The @scaresthatcare.bsky.social Women’s Writing Symposium has gone very well. Very proud of @marysangiovanni.bsky.social and our guest speakers. Day 2 starts in just a few hours. And leads into AuthorCon VI tomorrow scaresthatcare.org

Drunken @briankeene.bsky.social: (sigh) I love these pillows. If I were a pillow, I’d make love to these pillows. Me:… Also me: 👀

Sooo...IF I brought back the Cosmic Shenanigans podcast, would that be of interest? For those unaware of it, it was a podcast I did years ago exploring a different cosmic horror work each week. There's a lot of great stuff that's come out that I want to talk about. Would you tune in? Thoughts?

This week's inspirations as noted by my students are @brianevenson.bsky.social @silviamg.bsky.social and @gradyhendrix.bsky.social. Further proof that what you do matters. Even when you're not sure anyone is listening, they are.

This week's inspirations as noted by my students are @gradyhendrix.bsky.social and @gwendolynkiste.bsky.social Keep on rocking on!

@kozeniewski.bsky.social @briankeene.bsky.social Ahhhh! Ahhh! Pinwheels! Pinwheels in my head! Voices! Angry fish!

Happy Valentine’s Day to @marysangiovanni.bsky.social — my friend of 25 years, my wife of 3 years, my soulmate, and the girl who once clung to my excess body hair to keep from drowning in the shallow end.
