There are still many amazing writers of horror out there publishing increasingly stellar titles without selling their souls to AI. Aren't sure where to start? Read these folks: @nicole.mann.writer @emroy.bsky.social @crossedmoss @samanthaeatonwrites @viggyparhampton @micahcastle.com 🧵

what can you expect from my upcoming novella, BLOODLETTING GO? 📼 set in the 90s 🤘 punk rock 🚫 anticapitalism 🌈 queer as fuck ⁉️ lynchian think Green Room (2015), Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (1992), and Jennifer’s Body (2009). i am so fucking excited to release this weirdness into the world

Had so much fun drawing cover art for @emroy.bsky.social , who approached me with one of the best pitches for a book. Lynchian…. Green Room-esque… Blood everywhere…. No really add more blood. Awesome! Thank you! I love these ‘shattered mirror in a punk bar bathroom’ vibes

How rare it is to find an artist willing to allow mystery to stand, to allow the surreal to remain surreal, to show the violent puzzle of existence next to the beauty without trying to organize them into something easily understood or comforting. This is a great loss.

Strange Wilds Press has always been about showing love for wildlife through horror literature. My heart breaks for those enduring the devastating fires in California. I've pledged I will donate 20% of the total of any BOREAL paperback orders through our shop to aid those affected by the wildfires. 🧵
