Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 2hDon't I have the most wonderful and gorgeous supporters, friends and readers? ❤️ 281
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 2hMore designs have been uploaded, just in time for Halloween. I got my test shirts and I think they look great in person. Most of these should also available as mugs, hats, sweaters or socks. There's now even one for the discerning Forgetting Dolores fan. www.teepublic.com/user/deadgnome #shirts 2112
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 3hKeep getting texts from wannabe legislators, begging for money. Plus today is garbage day... #booksky #writing 0151
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 17hReads pretty well on the Kindle so far. I like adding the spaces between paragraphs so it's easy on the eyes... #booksky #writing 0171
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 19hThe story is done. The cover too. Finally. Now I have to read the whole thing (because I'm not sick of it by now) and then fix anything that needs fixing. I assume it will come in November sometime, because it follows Rude Awakening, which is coming out on Halloween. More on that later. #booksky 0252
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 21hMe, two days ago: I'm finishing this story today! Me, yesterday: OK, today's the actual day. Me, today: OK, this is it... wait, how did I forget to write a whole segment of the story? #booksky #writing 2340
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Blocked a new "follower": some AI bot, talking about AI, while other AI bots were liking and commenting on the content. It's like a new, bizarre corner of the internet, where trained machine-monkeys clap their imaginary hands for each other. I almost miss the perverts, pretending to be women... 190
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 01/10/2026It's cold and dark this morning, and the wind is making the chimes bounce off the siding. I hate wind chimes. They were a gift from someone I don't particularly like, either. I should just throw them away and pretend the devil took them, riding on a storm cloud... Happy October? I'll wait for May. 270
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 01/10/2026You wouldn't assume from the content, but this is actually an excerpt from VULGÆR, which is growing steadily. It's definitely not coming this year... Brings back memories. #booksky #writing 1181
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 30/09/2026A long time ago I used to mess with people's subtitles for bootleg movies. Just replace words and whole sentences in the txt files when nobody was looking. People were surprised how many times Amelie was complaining about explosive diarrhea or Nikita said her cock was itchy... 180
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Accidentally rediscovered this Sesame Street tea that I bought in Tokyo. It's surprisingly delicious and not just a gimmick, but for the three tea bags in the box that quality is also reflected in the final price. It was sealed really well and the tea was really fragrant. Oscar is my spirit animal. 0110
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 30/09/2026OK, here is something I can't get off my mind since writing Rude Awakening... It is still in its infancy, but someone had to do it. The horror landscape has been too Westless. It will be closer to Gordon's West than Lovecraft's, because Combs owns him forever. #booksky #writing #horror #lovecraft 0222
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The only kind of writer's block I'm experiencing is when other writers block me on social media... #booksky #writing 180
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 30/09/2026So close to being done with the third installment in The Call Universe. It's a different animal. I simultaneously love it and think it's shit, as the writing gods intended... 0100
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Just saw another 5* review for Demon Wolves. Yay. I wish Amazon would notify me about new reviews so I don't have to check on all books manually... #booksky #writing 0131
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I'm a proper little Schwitters enthusiast and a few years ago got to see his Kathedrale des erotischen Elends (Cathedral of Erotic Misery), later Merzbau, in the flesh at the Sprengelmuseum in Hannover, Germany, our shared hometown. The original was destroyed in WWII, so the replica had to do. 0141
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Weather outside is frightful and whatnot. Time for a caramel apple pie and some very fragrant Earl Grey with vanilla creamer and milk. Very soothing... 3160
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I'm not nearly into football as much as when I was a kid, but a few years ago I got free tickets for Lambeau Field from one of the coaches. More than the game itself, I enjoyed some of the displays in the Packers museum, and I always liked how these hall of fame pictures turned out... 160
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I'm so hungry and nothing sparks joy... Wish I had a plate of this curry with cutlet right now, but it'll most likely be a sandwich... 2161
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Last night didn't get terribly late, but the third installment in The Call series is still drawing to a satisfying conclusion. I might be done with this by the end of the week... #booksky #writing 0120
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Am I too late for the monochrome Monday crap? It was 4th of July, some years ago, and noticeably hot... 2170
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 29/09/2026The landscape somewhere between Albuquerque and Santa Fe, shot from a moving car. 2140
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Winter is coming. Time to start upping my condiment game... 190
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 28/09/2026And now for something completely different... I wrote this yesterday and it is based on true events. The twist is gross and no, I don't really know what this will be for... #booksky #writing 0110
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I like to tinker with covers for unfinished stories to keep my mind running when I'm not writing. What makes this one interesting is that your knee jerk reaction could be "AI generated image", whereas this is using an actual photo of a wine cellar that I took in Portugal in 2012. Fun times... 2121
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 28/09/2026How is it Monday again? I'll need to speak to a customer service representative... 190
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Something to focus on for psychedelic dreamscapes tonight... 2110
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Everything is bite-sized when you're Mick Jagger... 170
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I apologize in advance for posting pornographic content... 3160
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Me: buys toys for myself. Elderly cashier lady: "Oh, something for the kids." Me: "Um, yes, kids. Four of them, actually. Don, Mike, Raph, and Leo." Her: "Four boys!" Me: "Yes, all great martial arts enthusiasts, too." 290
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I sometimes realize how few pictures of me even exist, and how few of those aren't terrible. Usually, it's stuff like this, and it feels overly dramatic. Like, here's the Eiffel Tower, because I don't have a gym selfie. Because I don't go to the gym. And it shows... 3160
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Got bumped up to highest tier at teepublic. Thought this would take much longer. I drink to that. 1120
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Inspired by real fruit flavor... It's like when Amityville says "based on true events". 2140
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Preorder now: a.co/d/0aRllRq7 #booksky #writing #lovecraft #cosmichorror #horror 0152
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I have to go socialize. Pray for me. I hate small talk. I prefer the voices to come from within my own head... 2130
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Excerpt from Rude Awakening. Read this in a David Attenborough voice... Preorder now: a.co/d/0aRllRq7 #booksky #writing #lovecraft #cosmichorror #horror 0150
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 26/09/2026The full moon hangs heavily over Minneapolis tonight, casting its golden glow upon the city like the locket of a hanged man. Its pale mind is swollen with obscene thoughts, and I can hear it whispering to me from beyond the clouds. What it has to share with me on this night makes my skin crawl... 3201
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 25/09/2026It's a gross, sleepy day. Here's some WIP bullshit to lighten the mood... #booksky #writing 1180
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I've been so busy with everything else, I totally forgot this was coming... Forgetting Dolores is now also available as paperback and hardcover. Yay. a.co/d/05UQXBGt 2131
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 25/09/2026More merch is arriving. Yay. The pillow case and pillow arrive separately and it takes a bit of effort to get it in there. I'm experienced with stuffing large objects into smaller openings, so it was no big deal, but some of you might struggle... 1120
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Good morning Bluesky. Lots of exciting news today. Stay tuned. But first... #coffee 1130
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Excerpt from Rude Awakening. Coming on Halloween. Of course. Preorder now or face the cosmic consequences... Cosmiquences? a.co/d/0aRllRq7 #booksky #writing #lovecraft #cosmichorror #horror 090
Dead Gnome @dead-gnome.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I don't know what this book is exactly about, but if you tell me those are hand cannons, I'm blocking you... #booksky #scifi #weirdshit 5181
