It’s another Saturday at the Library! It’s starting to finally feel like fall, which, in my opinion, is the perfect reading season. Are you looking for the perfect book to read on a crisp morning as the leaves change color around you? Well, stop by your local library! They’ve got you covered!

You know what’s kind of sad? I run a short story group at my library (not the sad part). In order to read a book in the group, there needs to be at least 7 copies of it in the system. Do you know how many collections hit 7 copies? …not many.

After Mom died, Dad started making plant identification TikToks. Of course I gave him a follow. It was my idea after all. He was so depressed. So glum. Everyone needs an outlet for their grief.

It’s another Saturday at the Library!!!! Are you in a reading slump? Well, swing by your local library! One of the greatest joys of being a librarian is getting to recommend great reads. Ask at the front desk. Tell them what you like. Let your local librarian help break that reading slump!

I somewhat neglected my novel The Ghosts of Blaubart Mansion last year! So I'm going to re-post my old blurbs in coming days as a reminder to read it if you like quirky characters and happenings in the style of a more fantastical Barbara Comyns. From @coreyfarrenkopf.bsky.social:

If you ever wished Kurt Vonnegut and Karen Russell had written a quirky gothic story about complicated histories, family secrets, maze-like mansions, alchemy, and talking possums, then this is the book for you! A fun romp all the way through! - Corey Farrenkopf, author of Living in Cemetaries

If you haven't read the short story "What Is A Lake Beyond An Extinct Word?" by @coreyfarrenkopf.bsky.social from our 🌟June 2026 issue🌟, now's your chance! It's about drought and the broken promises of a not-too-distant future, and you can read it here: havenspec.com/fiction/what...

An excerpt of the short story "What Is A Lake Beyond An Extinct Word?" by Corey Farrenkopf, in Issue 23 of Haven Spec Magazine (June 2026). The text reads:

The cabin is cool compared to the elements outside. It holds some ghost scent of fresh water, the whisper of times not so hard, times when people could still float a house across a lake to better lands, to a future not so hollowed-out and ravaged by their past decisions. She wonders what it was like to truly believe in better. How it was a reality for her grandfather when he was her age.

Mattie gives a little laugh.

What even is a lake anymore beyond an extinct word?

The background is the issue's cover art, titled Red and Gold, by Carly A-F. It shows a skeletal figure with fire and branches for hair as they loom over a solitary human figure in the foreground.
