I review books at @namelesszine.bsky.social. @guynsmith.bsky.social's first pseudonymous novel is a slow revenge story, not just for the lead character but for the author too. Gavin Newman - The Hangman www.thenamelesszine.org/Voices-2026/... The Nameless Zine www.thenamelesszine.org

Unsuspecting holidaymakers at the newly-built Blue Ocean Holiday Camp enjoy amusement arcades, discos, and fairground rides while tucking into cockles, winkles and scampi suppers. But the shellfish action is about to get deadly. Crabs' Moon is @guynsmith.bsky.social's fifth crab book.

My debut book. I enjoyed the process, and used Guy N. Smiths "Writing Horror Fiction " as my guide. If you like creature vs human type #PulpHorror you might like this. The Woodlice amzn.eu/d/7iWi2jd #HorrorFiction
When a secret chemical experiment goes horribly wrong at a remote lab, a horde of woodlice, once harmless, mutates into something far more terrifying.

Armoured in grey chitin and growing by the day, these unstoppable creatures are no longer content to live in the shadows.

The infestation is spreading, the swarm unstoppable. Will anyone survive the grey, chitinous death creeping ever closer?

In the quiet fields of Sussex, terror waits—crawling, skittering, and ready to consume everything in its path...

I'm including some additional info in case anyone is curious about what's currently going on with Kadrey et al v. Meta Platforms. You can find this information on PACER, which stands for Public Access to Court Electronic Records. I pulled the docket report so you can see what's current
A screenshot of the Kadrey et al docket. The text is too long to meet Bluesky's alt text requirements, but this information shows the most recent filing was March 19, 2025 with a partial summary judgment motion filed by Plaintiffs.
