Super early flight this morning, so I’m losing myself in THE LIBRARY OF LOST GIRLS by Kristen Pipps, on shelves 10/28/25. I’ll be doing a joint book launch with Kristen at The Twisted Spine on 11/11/25 to discuss our recent YA horrors, so definitely mark your calendars! @getunderlined.bsky.social

Up next I read Wake Up and Open Your Eyes by @claymcleod.bsky.social. This one is also strong and eerie, with plenty of gore and body horror, and it gets points from me for recognizing how widespread right-wing radicalization is and how many routes lead to the same horrifying indoctrination...
The cover of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes, by Clay McLeod Chapman. A black and white photo of a "classic" American family at the dinner table, cut out and put in front of a red background. The family's faces are removed--except for one child--and have been replaced with a blur of television static.

This is excellent (I would have known it was Clay's work even if it was anonymous), particularly as I just rewatched Shivers last week. The whole zine is full of great work from @horrorsong.blog, @brackenmacleod.bsky.social, Jim Horlock, and more, you should check it out and donate if you can.

Teenage me would've been pretty bamboozled to be in an anthology with Chuck Palahniuk too 🖤

Pipe dream achieved: I pop up in an anthology alongside Chuck Palahniuk. Not to mention Grady Hendrix, Ally Wilkes and Garth Marenghi himself… Mr. Matthew Holness. UNQUIET GUESTS, edited by Dan Coxon, featuring my haunted housecleaning story “deep clean,” hits shelves 10/30. Preorder: bit.ly/46NawU2
