I have room for maybe ONE more novel-in-a-year author. If you've always wanted to write a book, especially if you've already mastered the short story form, let's do this together! All genres are welcome. One of my students just found a publisher. I can help! storyvilleonline.com/novel-worksh...

Sorry, out later this year, not next year. LOL I hardly know what year it is. My bad.

Thanks! I have a few spots left in this class, running Sept-Dec this year. It's the only time I'm teaching it in 2025. If you are beyond the basics, but are still looking to improve, this is the creative writing class for you. storyvilleonline.com/contemporary...

Just a friendly reminded that if you enjoyed my arctic horror novel, Incarnate, which The New York Times called "a must-read for fans of strange, surreal horror" please put up kind words and generous stars on Amazon and/or Goodreads. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Richard Thomas @richardthomas.bsky.social · 18/01/2025

Love that story. Your writing over the last couple of years has really been a great influence on my work. "Dancing Sober in the Dust" and "On the Hills, the Knitters" are just brilliant.

It's release day for this amazing Neutral Milk Hotel-inspired anthology. My story, "Naomi Ascends" is in here—a puritanical witch story with a twist ending. Pick up your copy today. Congratulations, @patrickbarb.bsky.social patrickbarb.com/and-one-day-...

My pleasure. Inspiring work. I write dark fiction as well and thought it was very original, and visceral. When he lowered the filters (both times) it was shocking. Intense.

Richard Thomas @richardthomas.bsky.social · 13/01/2025

Hey @thomasha.bsky.social I'll be teaching your story, "The Window Boy" in my workshops this year. What a powerful, creepy, unsettling story. Loved it. The final imagery will haunt me for a long time. Congratulations, excellent work.

Thrilled to have four stories on Ellen Datlow's long-list for Best Horror of the Year, including one co-written with Repo Kempt. Always an honor.

Just finished Incarnate by @richardthomas.bsky.social. This is the first of his books I’ve come across but won’t be the last. A thoroughly haunting meditation on the best and worst parts of humanity, along with some seriously visceral magical elements that I loved. #horror

Today is the official launch day for my fourth novel, Incarnate. This arctic horror, sin eater book has been a long time coming, and I think it’s some of my best work to date. It's inspired by The Thing, The Terror, The Giver, The Only Good Indians, and The Fisherman. www.amazon.com/Incarnate-No...

Richard Thomas @richardthomas.bsky.social · 03/05/2024

My latest blurb is out! "Richard Thomas is a major name in the horror genre, and his latest book, Incarnate, once again proves why. This is a strange, profound, and powerful tale about good and evil, and it's one that will stick with you long after you've turned the final page."
