“The best modern vampire story ever.”

Coffin Moon’s not even a tenth of what Salem’s Lot is, but holy shit THANK YOU. Wow.

#NowWatching John Carpenter’s ridiculously preposterous yet endlessly watchable PRINCE OF DARKNESS. Come for the laughable exposition, stay for the moody soundtrack and Donald Pleasence Donald Pleasence-ing all over the place. Jameson Parker’s moustache is also worth the watch. WONDERFUL!

Almost 3 years ago, I decided to get back into reading on a regular basis and resolved to read every day for a month. I just cracked 1,000 consecutive days and more than 270 books and novellas read since that resolution.

I don’t normally make a fuss but I am really proud of myself!

#Finished Coffin Moon by Keith Rosson @keithrosson.bsky.social and you’ve gotta drop whatever you’re doing and give this an October read. A high-test, real-deal, unrelenting grinder that evokes the best of the mass-market paperbacks of my ill-spent youth. FANTASTIC!

Absolutely need to know there is a new T R Napper @trnapper.bsky.social novel in the offing. Like, a huge degree of my overall mental stability hinges on another dose of his high-octane, cyber-noir, glitchy future with the formica countertops and unadvised implants. Cruel to leave a guy hanging.

Friday Night’s Alright (for Mar Molcajete)
a picture of a red restaurant table with a wooden plate with a stone molcajete stuffed to the brim with crab legs, mussels in the shell, fried tilapia, octopus, scallops, and clams in a spicy tomato broth. Butterflied shrimp hang from the rim of the molcajete and there is sliced crust bread on a plate just off to the side.

Talk about The Wire, Sopranos, Game of Thrones all you want, but the greatest US television program ever made is Sesame Street. It's not even close. 50+ years of treating kids across class, ethnicity, religion not as mini-consumers...but as citizens with a stake in this world.

#JustFinished All the Fiends of Hell by Adam L.G. Nevill. Harrowing survival story in the midst of either an alien invasion or breach of a cosmic horror-esque dimension. Compelling characters and a truly gripping, propulsive grind to survive an insane apocalypse.

#JustFinished Hex by Thomas Olde Heuvelt. A small town lives with a 350 year old witch in its midst, enduring the curse and abiding by strict rules—until a set of circumstances throws the town into chaos. Rich cast of characters and excellent unfolding horrors!

The book jacket for Hex by Thomas Olde Heuvelt, featuring a background of residential houses in a neighborhood, with a power/telephone pole slightly askew to the right. Floating in midair to the left is a woman in a tattered dress. We see her from behind, her hair and dress disturbed by the wind. She is bound about the torso by wire and her left hand is at an angle, pushing against the wire. There are leaves blowing in the air around her and everything is cast in an eerie, greenish hue.

#JustFinished Bright Young Women by Jessica Knoll. A fictionalized (but excellently researched) narrative about two key events during Ted Bundy’s rampage, giving agency not to Bundy but to the women whose lives were changed by his violence. Brilliantly written and exceptional.

Within the rectangle is a posterized closeup of a woman’s forehead, eyes, and nose in an electric pink color, with the exception of the whites of her eyes and bright yellow eye shadow.
