Big news!! i'll be at The Book Loft in Oak Park, IL with the rest of the new Bizarro authors to celebrate the release of our totally cool novellas!!

Ch-check it out, people! Your second favorite goblin (me) is going to be LIVE at the Book Loft at 1047 Lake Street at Oak Park, IL on Nov. 11 for the launch of the New Bizarro Author Series!

We'll be premiering four exciting new Bizarro novellas -- "A Pox Upon the Heart" by AE Hofmockel, "Brick-Built Dad" by Jon gensler, "Joy Machine" by PJ Breshnahan, and "Monoceros" by Bitter Karella! (ME) It's gonna be lit!

AE Hofmockel's "A Pox Upon the Heart" is a romance about what the grim reaper of e coli did during the strike!

Jonny Gensler's "Brick Built Dad" is a scathing saga about a grieving dad finding a new life (literally) through Legos!

PJ Bresnahan's "Joy Machine" is an all-too-topical ripped-from-the-headlines yarn about what if they could suck the joy out of your body... for profit?!?

"Monoceros" is the story of a guy who's actually a unicorn, is persued by all the 12 year old girls in the world, and uses his new found unicorn powers to live the American dream of killing his boss. It's like Kafka's Metamorphosis but kind of vaguely gay in an indefinable way, I guess (Not actually gay). Did I just blow your mind??!?

Oh oh oh and look at this!!! I actually have DIGITAL ARCS AVAILABLE for Monoceros. So dm me is that's your bag :D

@midnightpals.bsky.social saw this and thought of you...

A table is laid in an ornate dining room in a large Gothic house.
Each place setting includes a set of headphones.
There are several silver candlesticks.
At the head of the tale is an ornate wrought-bronze chair with a crystal panther head on each armrest.
A book by Byron is visible.

A sign explains:

Tom Marshman: A very Gothic gathering, sound installation (2026).

Bronze and rocjk crystal armshair based on a drawing of a 12th century chair by French Gothic Revival architect Eugene Viollet-le-Duc (1877).

An impossible Gothic sinner party unfolds at Tyntesfield, bringing together voices across time.

Bristol-based Tom Marshman creates performance work that uncovers hidden histories and amplifies LBGTQIA+ voices. Blending storytelling, archical research and live art, he brings overlooked queer histories into public view.

A Very Gothic Gathering imagines Gothic figures meeting for dinner at Tyntesfield. Bringing humour into the heart of Gothic, Marshman explores his long-standing attraction to these outsider figures.

He invites us to listen in on conversations that never happened, As voices from different eras meet, shared themes emerge, revealing how Gothic continues to resonate today.

There are labelled drawings of the Gothic chair (1877), Alexander McQueen 1969-2010, Angela Carter 1940-1990-something, Tom Marshman 1973-today, Byron's Bear 1805-1808, Lord Byron 1788-1824, George Gibbs 1873-1931, Janet Gibbs 1850-1909 (both the Gibbs are shown in a framed painting rather than as full characters), Bram Stoker 1847-1912 and Emily Bronte 1818-1847.

I appreciated a lot of Nolan's epic blockbuster retelling the Cass story from the perspective of Jolyon Maugham of the Good Law Project, and making Rowling a snake woman in the tradition of @midnightpals.bsky.social was a lot of fun, but I can't say I loved the credulous portrayal of Keira Bell.

There is a direct line one can trace from the way the religious right in the 80s & 90s went after Goths, Pagans, vampires & other non-conformist identity groups - often by framing them as delusional & inherently dangerous to minors - and their successful attacks upon trans people now
