Currently Reading “Our Share of Nicht” by Mariana Enriquez and am thoroughly digging it. I’d also highly recommend “Come Closer” by Sara Gran #womeninhorror month

📕 Soon by Lois Murphy 📕 absolutely enthralled/destroyed me in the best way possible. One of those rare reading experiences where I sat bolt upright and sort of whimpered, 'Oh no!' out loud to an empty room.

TRADWIFE by @tcparker.bsky.social was absolutely phenomenal. As was @pippinacious.bsky.social’s REAP, SOW, due out soon! @tananarivedue.bsky.social’s THE REFORMATORY was, of course, excellent and topical. #WiHM

“It was a bright cold day” in February of 2025 when, for no reason in particular, I began reading “1984”.

Annual viewing of “The Poseidon Adventure”. 70’s disaster film nostalgia, all-star cast, and New Year’s Eve. There’s got to be a morning after.

It’s always nice to have just the right “vampire in a coffin” necklace to accessorize an outfit when heading out to the movies. 🧛‍♂️🍿🎥

One of my favorite author moments was being invited to a read along of “A Christmas Carol” at a local Barnes and Noble. My part: reading the spirit of things yet to come. It teaches us that we can change our own future and impact those who cross our paths by the choices we make.

Looking for stocking stuffers or your next read? My slow-burn quiet horror stories have been described as “whimsical and terrifying”, “elegant and macabre”. If that’s your jam, I’d love you to check out my collection. All you’ll find are cold comforts here. www.amazon.com/Cold-Comfort...

Now that I have heard about the drones flying over New Jersey, how am I supposed to think about anything except the drones flying over New Jersey?

Whenever I put up my outdoor Christmas lights early to avoid doing it in colder weather later, I tell myself I won’t actually turn them on until Thanksgiving. I never learn. 🎄
