Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama. Us: Across your entire career? Reiner: In a 6 year period. Us: That sounds- Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

A mysterious dirge in human form, Leroux's "Phantom of the Opera" is both man and monster, the villain of one of the more famous novels of the early 20th century. And now, an impressive anthology of horror and weird fiction from @lethepress.bsky.social 🎭💙📚 www.lethepressbooks.com/product-page...

Hollywood, 1931. Lon Chaney has been dead for less than a year - but what happened to his body? And what does it have to do with the new wax museum that's opening up in town? Find out in "Phantom of the Wax Museum," a new story by me in FINAL CURTAIN from @lethepress.bsky.social.

Currently Reading: Eat Your Heart Out by Dayna Ingram from @lethepress.bsky.social and yall its a riot! Runs like a zombie b-movie with a sapphic action movie romance tie in I'm having so much fun

Reminder to self, keep an eye on Lethe Press. They publish LGBTQ+ Books and have an interesting collection. L. A. Fields had published two LGBT Sherlock Holmes books through them. 'My Dear Watson' and 'Mrs. Watson: Untold Stories'. #LGBTbooks #Bookpublishers #LGBTQIA+ www.lethepressbooks.com

Ahoy, lads 😘 This rough trade-themed anthology from Lethe Press includes a story from me about a curmudgeonly masochist, extreme music, and very grim fairy tales. Serious CWs apply for violent sex and sexualized violence 🔪⛓

Finished this today, it was whimsical and hilarious and so sweet.

At first blush, this book appears to be exactly what I expected: another solid collection of queer speculative fiction. I was not expecting Second Thoughts to challenge how I interact with literature. #bookreview 🌈📚💙

Got some new books in the indie/local horror section from @lethepress.bsky.social #booksky
