Still don't understand the Amazon algorithm, but very happy to announce THRILL KILLERS is at #1 in American Horror New Releases (I think overall is down to 70, go figure) #splatterpunk #horrorbooks #horrorreads #grindhousepress

It's that day again

Hey Bluesky peeps, could you help spread the word? Right now my horror novel BEDFELLOW is on sale for $1.99 on Kindle. I have no idea how long the sale will last. www.amazon.com/Bedfellow-Je...

Write a good book first. Find an agent. Let them shop it around. If that doesn't work and you have outside professional affirmation it is good, go small press or indie press route. Keep honing your craft / writing while this is going on. 10-12 years of writing before I got a deal w a big publisher.

Fans of American and British soap operas will catch some subtle and unsubtle references in THRILL KILLERS. Can you spot them all? 😉

Here comes summer - and some heated blowups! 🔥 #GH #YR #BTG #DAYS #BoldandBeautiful

Editing DRYAD, which I originally wrote between June 2021 and March(?) 2022, then revised significantly several times over a few years until May 2024. Did a novella in two weeks back in February 2023 that I've touched up a few times since. Then a sequel to DRYAD from November 2024 to May 2025. (1/2)

I don't have a cover reveal (yet) but I am currently working on edits for my novel DRYAD, which comes out July 24th!

Max Booth is a good person and wonderful member of the horror fiction community who is in a terrible situation and needs our help. Help if you can and do please spread the word.

This got buried with the dog stuff I was posting but I wrote up a thing about my life in Texas coming to an end. Free! Share it! Read it! It’s the only thing I managed to complete yesterday before a stray dog ran up to me and pissed on my foot and insisted i bring him back with me

If I've learned anything from listening to @corriepodcast.com and @thelistoflists.bsky.social it's that you should marry someone you could host multiple podcasts with.

Reading THE SHINING as a teenager is what made me want to be a writer. REVIVAL and DOCTOR SLEEP helped too. THE STAND (uncut) might objectively be his best, and IT helped me finish my first novel, but I'm gonna say THE REGULATORS for being so batshit dumb and fun.
