Leave it to a ghost to haunt me before Thanksgiving so I barely get any sleep. Am running on nothing but coffee and my craving for stuffing.😨

I’ve said it before and I’ll keep sayin it. Buy my book! or maybe I could sing it. 🎶Buy my boooook🎶 That would work for my 8 year old bc he’d do anything to make me stop singing.
Today, The Barre Incidents is officially released upon the world. A Horror book about grieving the “easy” parent (who is undead), falling for your best friend, learning cryptids are real, and banished, embittered gods. Happy born day TBI! You can order here! malarkeybooks.com/store/barre-...

Here's something I've been working on this year. Got to see the proof copy today & it looks wonderful. Initially print only, but I'm sure ebook will appear.
It holds stories and poems of those with lived experience of homelessness. As soon as links are available, I'll be sharing!
A good cause. 1/3

Thanks for the chilling #HorrorWritersChat!

Speaking of ace horror (well, since I brought it up), check out this interview I did recently with @codydo.bsky.social on the intersection of horror, writing AROMANTIC FRANKENSTEIN, and reclaiming power.

Searing pain as I pull arms up, flesh and meat left behind. The glint of sharp tools my focus. My blood mixed with theirs as throats are slashed. I make my way through the monstrous maze of the cold lifeless place. I choose humanity. Because fuck yeah I do. Beep boop, mofos.

Dehumanisation is complete when people forget how to be human. So, loss of mind or body, of will, and I'd say if we were one consciousness that'd suck big balls. As someone very opinionated, not having my own thoughts would drive me insane! I'd rather feed myself to the wolves.

Taking the human out of HUMAN is exactly how I'd explore it. When everyone becomes some kind of robotic entity(phone zombies is only the beginning), humanity's lost and people become less capable of understanding what it means to be human. People are already forgetting civility.

Hi, I'm Vivian and I write horror--anything, everything. Both past and future industrial horror is creepy, but I have gotta go future here because, man, robots and AI stuff creeps me out! Also, I'm weirded out by big factories or anything with smoke stacks( I don't know, lol).

Baked Mac & Cheese cheese with smoked Gruyere and cheddar. Wanna sink my face in. Fuck my face skin.

We all need a visit from the cheddar goblin this turkey day.

The way people will passive aggressively leave you out of things to let you know you're not liked is a bitch move. Just fucking say you don't like me or whoever the person is you're leaving out instead of being a little punk. 😘

Have you ever taken an edible and then had a serious pondering over whether a green bean was, in fact, a bean? Shut up.😂

Trump's tariffs are a scam the way Black Friday deals are a scam. Similar principles.

Twiggy Voo?

A country Christmas party in 1913 Napoleonic Britain.

A Christmas cosy crime.

Pyres is the searing inferno of a book people need to keep warm as the cold weather draws in.

Come for the grotesque art made manifest, stay for the right wing scumbags being incinerated 🔥🔥

happy #fridayreads! if one of these wonderful reviews is yours, thank you! Hope to have big new news to share soon, leaving a review or buying What The Dead Can Do probably wouldn’t hurt.

My coming-of-age folk horror, The Haunting of Wounded Birds, released last week. If you love dark forests, black birds, old rituals, and haunted boys, this one is for you!
