A phrase that has frequently been used (sometimes by me) to describe my stories is "fun horror" - and I genuinely do hope that people have fun reading them.

Pimetime (2026) | This version of Moby Dick is weird. Was this bold or hackneyed? Smart, or very much the opposite? I'm genuinely not sure I know. Maybe I never will. But I appreciated my time with it.

The Ghost Camera (1933) | "You wait, I'll show you something rummy." Somewhat inexplicable first-person POV sequence. Plot and particulars that could have been a giallo in a few decades' time. A charmingly verbose lead. Pre-code sexiness. Some clever editing. What more could you ask for?

thinking about the perfect fall outfit again 🍂
Black & white illustration of Akane Tendo from the Ranma 1/2 manga by Rumiko Takeshi. She’s wearing a dark top & a short high-waisted skirt with black tights & cute little boots. She’s also got a cool belt & a fanny pack hanging on one hip. The pièce de résistance is her jacket, which is oversized & boxy & has a pattern of huge jack-o-lantern faces which say PUMPKIN beneath them.

According to family lore, the first toy I ever picked out for myself was a rubber dragon. I still have it and, as you can see, it has seen better days. Now, thanks to @stuhorvath.com, it has a much more intact sibling.

The purple shadows of
  Giant planets are
Momentarily cast
  Upon the skull-face
Of a thousand
  Bone-white moons
As they whirl past
  The graveyard
Of Creation...
