Ok guys, this year's Horror Recommendations from Horror Authors was big (I think it was nearly 100 book recommendations from 14 authors... and me) so I turned them all into ONE Amazon List (yes I'd get a commission, but I still want you to check your local indie bookstore first 😉). amzn.to/47A6nCe

Hey #booksky - if you like author interviews (or book reviews or other random book related stuff) swing by youtube.com/@gryftkin - I'm on the #raceto4k before YouTube bumps up the YPP requirements. I'm sure I've interviewed SOMEONE you'd be interested in listening to ;)

Oh nice. I just had Deena on - drops Monday. Tell her hi for me 😉

Hey nerds! (sorry Bookborn, don't let me do that again) - what does the author calendar look like? Well I've got a bunch in November that haven't picked dates yet, but these are all of our "in stone" interviews coming up.

gryftkin @gryftkin.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

*ignore the thumbnail, I forgot to make one for this upcoming stream so it's using my default banner from YouTube. I'll get a new one made...

That’s his door now 😂

The duology was so good. Looking forward to seeing more in this world.

I wasn’t there but cool to see a photo of you with Josefine from Fine Reads (who should really be on BlueSky 😂). I’ve been watching Booktube and Bookstagram and basking in everything I missed.

gryftkin @gryftkin.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

I know. Was just hoping to make you laugh 😁

gryftkin @gryftkin.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Brutal crushing sadness? That was when you met me, right?

gryftkin @gryftkin.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

I keep getting bills from Microsoft, Disney, etc. life is rough when Disney has to start using Gmail addresses 😂

@keithrosson.bsky.social your job is to try to match Clay's energy 😂

My bread and butter is still author interviews, but I am catching up on my book reviews if that's something you find interesting. #bookreview #thedragonhassomecomplaints #johnwiswell youtu.be/bjbXUfA9I24

Sorry @adamtierney.bsky.social - I clicked the wrong one 😂 Read twice, THEN post. (headbang)

#booksky The race to 4 K is on (in February, YouTube is moving the goal posts for the YPP and will be doubling the needed number of watch hours in the last 365 days). If you like author interviews - V.E. Schwab, Scott Lynch, Martha Wells, Jim Butcher, actress Kelly Bishop, Josh Malerman - come watch

gryftkin @gryftkin.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

I have never been so disappointed in myself as the three seconds it took for this joke to kick in :D

@drpepperofficial.bsky.social I can see what you're going for with the A&W Root Beer Float cans, but I gotta admit, it's giving me much more "butterscotch" or even "butter rum" vibes than an actual root beer float. Not bad, but not what I was expecting ;)

gryftkin @gryftkin.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

Man. Got to miss tonight. Was looking forward to it. Yall have fun and someone make stupid comments since I won’t be there. 😅 #horrorwatch

gryftkin @gryftkin.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

Ooh, I wish. I can only afford (vacation time) one con per year and I hit ReaderCon this year. (the wife kind of wants me to spend the rest of my vacation time with her :D ) Hope you have a blast!

gryftkin @gryftkin.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

Note to self... get an associates degree... no evil villainhood and no having to fight the evil villains.

It didn’t look like a Party murder. Certainly, Cyprian hadn’t been told to expect one— and the Ministry of the Interior had a dedicated hotline for sanctioned political murders. Richard Swan. The Infinite State Nice, @richardswanauthor.bsky.social 😂

Someone is using that as the name of an animal in their next fantasy novel 😅

One time! And I’ll never hear the end of it!
