ALL THE STARS DIE by @jfdt.bsky.social is moving up the horror collections chart on the Zon--and with good reason. It's (forgive the pun) stellar.

"A wonderfully eerie, haunting, and awe-inspiring read." ―

I decided to subscribe to a newspaper with an optimistic title. You should subscribe as well!

SNAFU averted! Apocalypse delivered!
After a little snafu, the first issue of The End Times is here and in my hands @badhandbooks.bsky.social (my roommate claimed he didn’t see my name and thought it was junk so it got left out in the mail room. He has been now been informed otherwise) it’s so good, can’t wait to see what happens next!

Publishing a post-apocalyptic newspaper written by the current writer of Marvel's Wolverine and Stephen King, while layout is handled by my mother-in-law, is about the craziest MadLib I can think of.

NICE--thank you for letting us know. Enjoy!
I am as West Coast as you can get and I got mine this morning.

Happy readers from all over are sending us photos of THE END TIMES as it hits their location. SO MUCH FUN. If yours hasn't hit yet, it's coming; these went out from the middle of the country and getting to the coasts takes time.

I do not know why my "sleepwalkers mysteriously walk across a violent, divided America during an unfolding pandemic being investigated by a rogue government-built AI" novel WANDERERS is a buck-ninety-nine for your electromagnetic book reader of choice, but it is, so go enjoy an on-sale apocalypse?

Deep, haunting, beautifully written. You want it.
(as I said, I only illustrate books I love)

if you are missing the surreal / abstract / pitiful then you are in danger of drifting into the Cool Zone, where monsters just look Cool with no possibility of being Scary
