Candace Nola is 93% of the way to her fundraising goal. Which means 7% of you out there need to get off your asses. (I know that’s not really what it means, but for some reason artistic types have to pretend not to understand math, so there you go.)

Thanks @briankeene.bsky.social for mentioning @kozeniewski.bsky.social new book, The Hematophages: Splatterings, on your Patreon. Guess I completely missed his post here on @bsky.app when he mentioned it... 14 days ago... 😢 a.co/d/08lUxWzD

IHOP must be a rabbit’s favorite restaurant, right, @briankeene.bsky.social @marysangiovanni.bsky.social?

THE HEMATOPHAGES: SPLATTERINGS is now available in wide release. If you like #horror, #scifi, or writing advice, you might want to check it out. mybook.to/SPLAT

And here I go again with the reviewing. This time I discuss J.G. Ballard, @kozeniewski.bsky.social , @ianrankin1.bsky.social and @wertherdelledera.bsky.social , @amandaheadlee.bsky.social , and Muriel Spark www.uncomfortablydark.com/post/04-03-2...

I guess I’ve always thought of @johndurginauthor.bsky.social as the Thousand Island dressing of horror.

I’m a simple man, @texascthulhu.bsky.social. As long as I’ve got my health, my millions of dollars, my gold house, and my rocket car, I don’t need anything else.

@briankeene.bsky.social, sometimes heroes have to die. Just like Spartacus and Krull and The Beastmaster. Even E.T.

There’s nothing like a good #bookmail day. This time it’s the @thunderstormbooks.bsky.social signed limited hardcover of THE PERFECTLY FINE HOUSE by @kozeniewski.bsky.social and @texascthulhu.bsky.social. Loved this one when I read the ebook, and am thrilled to add this edition to my shelf.

@briankeene.bsky.social @kozeniewski.bsky.social Gentlemen I'm reading Clickers Forever and I need more Jade

On a day of emotional whiplash which I blame on Kimya Dawson, Bob Dylan, How to Get to Heaven from Belfast, and Stonewall Kitchen, current reads are from Muriel Spark, Mignola/Fegredo, @kozeniewski.bsky.social, and Stephen Jay Gould. A couple will be reviewed for Uncomfortably Dark Disciples soon.

Can you put my name as “The Hammer” in @marysangiovanni.bsky.social’s phone, @briankeene.bsky.social? I’m trying to get that going.

YOU DO IF YOU WANT TO LEAVE COMMENTS!

On this dark day, I think only one thing can bring us comfort, @briankeene.bsky.social @marysangiovanni.bsky.social

Happy Birthday, @marysangiovanni.bsky.social! I got you your favorite album cover: “News of the World.”

Who’s the real seven billion ton robot monster here? Not I…

Hmm…

My latest Amazing Stories column. As we pass out of the 1/4 of the 21st century these are 23 underrated speculative fiction works. Weird and under the radar a few are out of print. All amazing. Featuring works by @brianevenson.bsky.social @jamesreich.bsky.social @sbdivya.bsky.social...

I wish all my friends and family would stop calling me an old grandpa. And also get off of my lawn.

@kozeniewski.bsky.social What advantages does this motorcar have over say a train? Which I could also afford.

Kids, @briankeene.bsky.social, @marysangiovanni.bsky.social, family meeting! There’s too much passing gas in this house. So from now on any time you’ve got to cut one, you pull your pants down and do it through this fart hole.

Wonders... we're surrounded by wonders... That phone in your pocket could power a rocket. But what does the military have? Look around & be amazed, @briankeene.bsky.social @kozeniewski.bsky.social That pad on your lap could buy a shirt at the Gap. But what does the military have?

Goddamn, that's a beautiful sight. With @kozeniewski.bsky.social and @briankeene.bsky.social . Thank you so much, gents. We really did it. mybook.to/KPETL

Heading to #WorldFantasyCon this year? We’d love to hear your pitches for #scifi, #horror, and some #fantasy. frenchpresspub.blogspot.com/2025/10/atte...

Oh, @mauricebroaddus.bsky.social, I meant to tell you, an author who wrote a deep, loving analysis of all of @briankeene.bsky.social’s books approached me not long ago. It was thrilling to be able to publish that! I’d love to do the same for you. Has…has anyone written anything like that for you?

My feet aren't yet under me, but I'm reading some shorter works for now-I'm hip deep in Looney from @kozeniewski.bsky.social and @gavindillinger.bsky.social ; Five Raging Hearts is heading for an end of November release; & last night I started a new story for the first time in months=more to come...

About to take The Long Walk with @marysangiovanni.bsky.social @texascthulhu.bsky.social @wesleysouthard.bsky.social @kozeniewski.bsky.social and Dacia Arnold.

Still trying to organize all these books since I picked up a few more when I visited @vortexbooksncomics.bsky.social 😊 Think most of @briankeene.bsky.social books are organized along with @marysangiovanni.bsky.social, @somercanon.bsky.social @mattwildasin.bsky.social, @kozeniewski.bsky.social,...

Wizard Robot and His Less Successful Friend will be back after these messages!

Aah! We're in a real jar of jam this time, Wizard Robot (@briankeene.bsky.social)!

Wrong photo!

Where? Please advise.

@kozeniewski.bsky.social Out of mayonnaise. Please advise.

(3/3) 💀 Don’t miss our full chat: www.ericarobynreads.com/interview-wi... Huge thanks again to Steve for taking the time!

(2/3) Steve’s ability to blend horror, humor, and raw human emotion is just unreal. From raising the dead to exploring life’s biggest questions, his writing always hits hard. He’s got a range most writers can only dream of, and I was SO thrilled to dive into this interview with him!

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know how much I adore Stephen Kozeniewski’s work... So this interview was seriously overdue! (1/3) @kozeniewski.bsky.social
