Tomorrow is Dark Art's release date! Since Ingramspark's gears seem to move slowly, it may only be available to order through Amazon for the first few days, but I'm pushing to get it available via other sellers/able to request your local library order a copy as soon as I can!

LFG!!! Also, DARK ART is pretty rad. If you want that Resident Evil/Silent Hill itch scratched, it'll do.

This is a BIG week for me: first and foremost, my debut novel Dark Art is released on Thursday. Then, there's TWO anthologies I'm in: Alien Buddha House of Horrors #9 on Friday and Blood in the Sandstone (all Utah horror) on Saturday (with a launch party)!

Sometimes your book gets reviewed on Goodreads and absolutely makes your day. Thanks for the kind words, @tuskmor.com!

I was stitching up a patient last night and filling them in all about Mothman who they hadn’t heard of. Told them he shows up before tragedies and said, “hey maybe you saw him before this nasty cut happened”.

Hey, I'm in this anthology! Hilariously, that means that I have book releases three days in a row! Dark Art on 10/1, this on 10/2, and the Blood in the Sandstone anthology on 10/3!

The horrors persist but so do books, flowers, animals, the ocean, sunsets, trees, libraries, iced coffee, spooky season, the word ‘fuck’, and the moon.

Hey Scream Kingdom, if you've been using Spotify to listen to us, you probably have not seen any updates in a while due to a weird duplicate error when we changed hosts. That's fixed now, so you may have a sudden flood of new content. Enjoy!

Zach Cregger's take on Resident Evil was a ton of fun! The original characters and story worked well, and the video game-style cinematography and survival horror elements made it feel true to the experience of playing the games. The Easter eggs were fun, too.

I just read this in a single sitting. It's dark, nasty, upsetting, and most of all, a powerful exploration of the broken way our society handles homelessness. This is an important horror book, but be warned: it doesn't hold back on ANYTHING.

I just learned I had misjudged when a romance short story was due for my MFA program (I thought I had at least another week but it's due tomorrow night), so in a panic I somehow managed to flesh out a writing exercise into a full story in a couple hours. Not sure how I pulled that off...

My ARC team has grown but could still use YOU! If you like horror inspired by Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and government conspiracy thrillers, this book is for you.

I'm looking for ARC readers! My debut horror novel, Dark Art, is about a man whose memories are full of monsters that the US government tells him were hallucinations from a poisonous gas, so he returns to his ruined city to discover the dark truth. Message me if interested! #ARCreaders #horrornovel

It's interesting to reflect on how 9/11 has had an impact on my writing. My novel Dark Art was a story that was struggling to really take shape until I took a Post-9/11 Literature class near the end of my undergrad, and I loved studying other work directly influenced by the event.

Nathaniel J.Darkish @njdarkish.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

Few things make me happier than getting feedback on a story that helps me make it much more twisted than it already was. Today I had a zoom meeting with one of my professors (about a story that wasn't an assignment) that did just that.

After years of hearing about how What Remains of Edith Finch is a must-play masterpiece, I just knocked it out in one sitting and it was... fine. Maybe it was just over-hyped for me but I felt it was competently made, with interesting mechanics, but with a story that never felt cohesive.
