To all mothers, but especially to the one whom I'm married to--she makes our daughter feel empowered, beautiful & smart 🙏 She teaches a course on "bad mothers," only b/c she strives to be the best one possible

Nothing else matters when a new Sayaka Murata novel is available in English. Queen of the Weird...I'm ready

Spring is here. My back porch, surrounded by trees & wildlife, is callin'. Time to read Split Scream, Volume 7.

Celebrating my wife's b-day today (@aliciaandrz.bsky.social)! Recognizing her endless positive impact on the world, w/ students & colleagues, & also her thirst to connect w/ people. She's special; nobody can argue that. Larger-than-life; brilliant-minded; gorgeously beautiful, to top it off

😱 she’s graced me with her presence !!!

I decided to read a non-horror book, which is actually weirder than the horror I’ve read over the past year. Miranda July’s ALL FOURS, so far, is wonderful. She’s quirky, hilarious, and full of bizarre insight. Highly recommend!

GLASS STORIES by Ivy Grimes (@ivygrimes.bsky.social) is an absolute treat. Some writers like Murakami & Eric LaRocca have this narrative voice that’s so comforting & gentle, despite leading you thru the hellish depths of the mind. This is Grimes. Magical horror. Can’t wait to read more by her

Oh shit, a blue bird

I opted for donuts this year on birthday. Any other non-cakers out there?

She let me have a selfie 😱🙀😱

My novelette, Come to Daddy, is out! Link below! A big day for me, as someone who dreamed of writing since elementary school. I'm almost 38 & it's finally happened. This story is weird af, but now more than ever, toxic masculinity needs a microscope. This is my small contribution. Thanks, everyone!

My most-listened-to track, according to Spotify: "Loud Noise Sound" by Misa Bee, off their album Noise Waterfalls (it's white noise)

I've been wondering why stock photography has interested me as a weird fiction writer and then you start looking through the archives...
@dianakamin.bsky.social's research has been an integral part of my deep dive into the topic, so thanks to her wonderful scholarship!

My book haul for AuthorCon 2024! I'm so grateful for being able to attend this convention and meet an incredible array of brilliant minds. What power there is in a creative community! Especially a kind/welcoming one. Tagging some authors in comments, but thank you all!

Is it a coincidence this was the first book I read after quitting smoking this year? Not sure, but it changed my POV on life and writing. Max Booth's NIGHTLY DISEASE was shortly thereafter. 2023's been a very good year of discovery. Thank you, indie horror writers! @nicolecushing.bsky.social

I've finally googled it:

The last thing I remember is walking into Richmond Halloween Hangover...and then coming out with a tote bag of books...whoops
