Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

This is a book I did not write but instead inspired. 15 extraordinary tales written by 15 exceptional authors. I consider them ‘canon’ and have since piggybacked/inserted a few of them into Bishop’s narrative. Get it before it’s gone. #BookSky www.bishopriderbooks.com

Most of these are full sized canvases. All painted by me. The paintings are out there. On walls, private collections, my own private stash. As bright and psychedelic as the day I painted them. #abstractart #ᴘsʏᴄʜᴇᴅᴇʟɪᴄᴀʀᴛ

This week, while a certain online place has their sales, consider local alternatives. To be clear, most of my royalties come from you buying through online entities. But this week try buying directly from the sources: www.starlitepulp.com/shop www.outcast-press.com/shop-1 mannytorresnovelist.com

The book that inspired Blood Meridian. It’s been out of print for years with originals going for $$$. But the book is public domain now so this publisher had the prudence to republish it.

Writers: when posting that you have available work to submit to open calls, do you get responses? I’m sitting on five completed, unpublished novels that need homes. Any potential editors can send me a message. Thank you.

Synopses are where writers break out their worst verbs. The story follows... the character journeys… events unfold… tensions rise… No. Make it specific. Make it sharp. The way you describe the plot should sound like your book.

Five people fight each other over the cut of robbery money, all while listening to a jukebox filled with records by The Can. “Tango Whiskyman” and “Deadlock” feature heavily from Can’s Soundtracks album.

The film Performance joins @criterioncollection in this compact but arty package. One of my favorite films of all time that I’ve seen as many times as I’ve seen Jaws. The opening 30 seconds are absolutely breathtaking and the soundtrack is my favorite of all time too. Going to write a substack too.
