Proper thread time! Today marks the publication of my fourth book, Spinosaur Tales, this one written with and illustrated by @markwitton.bsky.social. It's out now in the UK (hardback, audiobook, ebook) and will be out elsewhere in Jan 2026. It covers all things spinosaurian, including Spinosaurus.

And now, a cozy afternoon with a fire and muffin-baking.
Finished overwintering the yard this morning. Stuffed everything in the shed, finished laying straw on the garden beds, and brought in the backyard bird feeders.
Also set up a barricade system so my empty rain barrels don't get tossed into the garden beds during a wild snowstorm. Again.

Witching out is such a cozy activity don’t you agree? Even more fun with friends (esp furry friends). What ritual do you think they’re performing 😌

This was utterly terrifying to watch as a child, but I was simultaneously enamoured with it. A masterpiece of animation.
It’s still remarkable that Disney produced - and released - this segment in 1940. A horror short that should rank with its Universal monster movie contemporaries… The animation is lush and experimental, and really shows off the Disney special animated effects team…

It's Halloween, and the entire first Episode of Scarlet Hollow is free for you to explore on Steam.
Its branching narrative web is so intricate that you'll see less than 15% of the game in a single playthrough.
So get lost for a bit, and see where the road takes you.

My latest for @nytimes.com! For 40 years, paleontologists have grappled over whether a small tyrannosaur — named Nanotyrannus — was its own animal, or simply a teenage T.rex. The debate has been ... contentious. Which is why it's so fun to finally be able to say this:
Folks? Nanotyrannus is real.

Looks like Nanotyrannus is back on the menu, boys.
‘Teenage T. rex’ fossil is actually a different species
The discovery of smaller predator Nanotyrannus could prompt a re-think of tyrannosaur evolution.
