Have you ever gone to your local coffee shop and seen your favorite mug cheating on you with someone else?

I scored Halloween III and Halloween Resurrection for $13. Good deal or terrible deal?

We can probably wrap it up on all these HiLaRiOuS AI videos now, right?

Speaking of props: hungry monster in a metal box, Tootsie Rolls, and a feeding orientation with reader @jbkish.bsky.social! Our talented performers had our audience engrossed and laughing. No audience members were eaten by the monster during the orientation.
J.B. Kish provides a monster feeding orientation at the Horror Authors Book Party at the Beaverton City Library while audience members look on. Behind him, a green metal box holding the monster sits on a table decorated for the Halloween event.

Just finished 45 min of writing at my favorite coffee shop. An absolute mess of a chapter and I love it

The writing community in this city is so impressive. Some nights I can’t believe I get to hang out with these people.

If you’re in PDX, you gotta check out the Columbia Gorge Model Railroad Club. They’re only open a few weekends out of the year! If I refer enough people they will shrink me down and let me stay!

I recently came across the Polish artist Zdzisław Beksiński and I'm learning more about his work and its focus on introspection and the subconscious. These are a couple pieces I love so far - especially his landscapes. The floating monoliths remind me of The Fifth Season by @nkjemisin.bsky.social

you know what they say, leave them wanting more so they can't kill you immediately and eat you and instead will imprison you and keep you alive to tell more stories, that old saying

I feel like a bunch of people sat down and wrote True Detective season four *specifically* for me.

My wife and I watched Alien and Aliens this weekend. Then I bought Aliens: Vasquez by V. Castro. I cannot and will not be stopped.

Writers! On FEB 26 I'm leading an online workshop for the Horror Writers Association on author roadmapping! It's an actionable way to identify your goals and articulate the exact steps necessary to achieve them. This is about getting specific! I'd love to hang out with you. shorturl.at/oxFHN

As a kid, I used to lay my clothes out before bed. I'd arrange them on the floor like I was there one moment, then—poof—gone the next. Jesus Christ. Anyway, I like to write scary stories now.
