It’s at the top of my TBR pile. It should be on yours too.

I’m going out in a limb that Lt. Kinderman is the best part of The Exorcist.

Working on this magazine, I can diminish the greatness of what began as a tweet from a stranger. This is one of the biggest honors I've received & it reminds me that we are thriving & loved. Thank you #IndieLitMagGala 2025, Alan Perry for making my heart swell, and our nominator for bringing me joy.

Not breaking ground saying Chris's (@scribeofhades.bsky.social) new novel SHITSHOW is great, but I'm saying it anyway. www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

Happy pub day to @allymalinenko.bsky.social and the release of BROKEN DOLLS. Mine shipped today. Looking forward to seeing what’s hidden within this incredible cover. It feels like we’ve been waiting AGES! So excited to get my hands on it.

Is there anything less useful than Ted Cruz speaking out on any tragedy? I'm not kidding, my dog took a shit earlier and I'm pretty sure it raised spirits more and had a more important impact than a single callow and feigned indignant word from Rafael Edward "Ted" Cruz.

Due to a clerical error we've received numerous reports of nude individuals aggressively assaulted by birds of prey across the US. No reports of these incidents from anywhere else across the globe thanks to general critical thinking skills no longer found within borders of the US.

Very freaking cool!

Happy birthday to @stephenking.bsky.social thank you for everything you’ve given. You’re the gift to the rest of the world. And everyone go see THE LONG WALK. Here’s an afar shot when I got to meet him at BookPeople back in 2014.

How to judge your own work…

I hope some newspapers use a crop where you can easily read the sign.

Same same.

He finally got his revenge against the man who asked him if he was up past his jail time. Now it's up to us to ask why he's terrified to release #TheEPSTEIN_PedoFiles. #StandWithTheSurvivors

This isn't a joke. This statue now resides on the mall in DC. Christians, isn't there something in the book you claim to follow about this type of thing? I mean it's right at the front so it's hard to miss. In fact, Texas and other states are trying to force 9 more of those rules in our schools.

So Disney in their infinite wisdom are capitulating to fascist control of the media and suppression of the 1st Amendment? Because that always leads to more freedom?

Happy pub day to the incredible @meproctor.bsky.social . Congrats on CATCH ME ON A BLUE DAY. I'm excited to see the continuing adventures (misadventures of detective Declan Shaw. a.co/d/4V8hsEW

I am happy to share that my short story “Cat’s Fight,” has just been published at The Yard: Crime Blog. Please check it out. It sat for 20 years with me terrified to read my own writing for fear I would hate it. I didn’t, thankfully. I hope you enjoy it. theyardcrimeblog.com/2025/09/13/c...

THE LONG WALK is amazing and tremendous. But I sobbed multiple times throughout. Maybe I’m a bit overly emotional or maybe its content is just so RIGHT for the America we suffer in right now; but it is a brilliant, brutal watch.

Happy pub day to fellow author and genuinely nice dude Chris Panatier. Pick up a copy of SHITSHOW you’ll dig it. sobelobooks.com/shop/p/shits...

I adore this book, which was my first introduction to @tananarivedue.bsky.social. And the new cover is breathtaking.

The Constitution protects our right to desecrate the American flag. President Trump's executive orders don't override the First Amendment.

We came, we saw, we ended the world. Good times tonight at BookPeople with @meggardiner.bsky.social and C. Robert Cargill. Thanks to everyone who came out!

The release of The End of the World as We Know It, @bookpeople.com was one of the best ever. @meggardiner.bsky.social @gabino.bsky.social and @crobertcargill.bsky.social were on fire with talk of their stories, their edits and their interactions with the editors and Uncle Stevie! Huge thanks to all.

One of my most anticipated books of the year is released today. I'll be out at BookPeople in Austin tonight to grab my copy and listen to three of the authors (Gabino, Meg and Cargill) talk a little about their tales. Come on out. 7 pm.

I'm very much looking forward to this one. Grabbing my copy tomorrow at an event w/ Gabino Iglesias, Meg Gardiner and C. Robert Cargill at BookPeople in Austin. That said, this post from Shawn is some of the best, most heartfelt promotion you'll ever see for an anthology and I'm here for it.

It's here; what everyone's been hoping for. A new website for me. Please stop by, have a look at some of my stories and drop a line if you like: www.brandondoughtywrites.com

I concur that @meproctor.bsky.social is awesome and and a damn fun read. Rock and a Hard Place’s Stone’s Throw is also great and offers great prompts

Loved this story.

Proud of the Texans fighting this unconstitutional gerrymandering that would remove me from my proper voting district removing mine and my neighbors voice in representation.

Attention! Go check your podcast feeds for a brand spankin’ new episode of The Kingcast with the legendary director of The Blob, Nightmare 3, and The Mask, Chuck Russell! We talk Darabont, Shawshank, his newest flick Witchboard, the occult, and much more!

We got some very cool work in the 87th edition. Take “Milk Call” by Tom Busillo for example. In this case the work speaks for itself, so give yourself the gift of a free press and partake. www.roifaineantpress.com/post/milk-ca...

Of all the bands and personalities that I grew up listening to, Ozzy turned out to be the longest and most beloved. His music remains relevant and he leaves an indelible legacy for rock and metal that will never be forgotten. RIP to the Prince of fucking Darkenss. You will be sorely missed.

Happy @sgj.bsky.social #Bookday for those who observe 🔥❤️🔥 #KillerontheRoad #TheBabysitterLives

Michael Madsen was a cool motherfucker and a damn good actor. Here, we’re talking about being star struck by Nancy Allen who was just across the way. RIP to a legend.

I’ll be there. If you’re nearby you should come too.

John Woo's masterpiece Hard-Boiled is available for purchase for the first time since I can remember walking into the bountiful movie Mecca known as Blockbuster Video. Do not wait, get this bad boy now. One of the greatest action movies ever created. tv.apple.com/us/movie/har...

hey @nytimes.com what if instead of this you reported accurately that the president of the united states has violated the united states constitution by entering into war with a foreign power without the approval of congress, just like, what if

NO KINGS!

New at @avclub.com, I went long on THE LIFE OF CHUCK and how it's a perfect fit for what I consider to be @mikeflanaganfilm.com's greatest directorial superpower. (Spoilers for those who haven't seen it yet.) www.avclub.com/the-life-of-...

I mean, scholars of fascism were like, “He’s going to attack universities, the media, and unions, and he’s going to arrest his political opponents,” and most of America was like, “Stop exaggerating.”

Agreed.

There's been some hay made in the press about the sheer volume of horror films this year, but when was the last time there were this many must see original films worth going out to a theater for? This an incredible year for horror and film in general. So proud to get to run with this pack of films!

THE LIFE of CHUCK is a great film and should be duking it out for best of the year. The story, direction, camera work and performances are A++. Bravo to @mikeflanaganfilm.com and his team. And I loved the dedication to @scottwampler.bsky.social ❤️
