Please give this whole thing a read. This is my grand call for help. Weirdpunk survives year after year--putting out the books I believe in regardless of 'market viability'--because of the Subscribers. And this year we need more. Cutoff is March 1st, and we're around half of what we typically have.

#Booksky, I have a small-town folk horror novel now available on paperback, Kindle & KU: mybook.to/XIvD2 It's the bleak story of a cursed family & the entity hiding in the woods... Suffer. Surrender. The choice is yours. 😈 It's also on GR: www.goodreads.com/book/show/21...

Three fanned out paperback copies of my horror novel, ONLY DARKNESS, with one clearly showing the cover, which is black and features a creepy girl with long hair and black eyes.

Cover by Fabled Beast Design.

Why didn’t any comms people for these members of congress reach out to influencers or people in independent media? I would have been down there so fast if someone told me it was happening

While members of congress were trying to enter the USAID building, cable news instead chose to broadcast Donald Trump signing an executive order.

“Coup from the top” is a THING. Trump through MUSK has just USURPED Congress’s CONSTITUTIONAL role by taking over the TREASURY & rewriting CODE right now. They are breaking the law and Congress is doing nothing but complain. DC police need to ARREST MUSK and pull those hackers out!!!!

I wrote about how not to give up, how to take back your voice in your own future, so that when a year actually has passed, you look back with the satisfaction. This is how to survive Trump 2.0

How To Survive Trump 2.0

The first Trump administration was about resistance. The second is about reclamation.
