On his yearly trip to Armenia, my dad found these @stephenking.bsky.social books translated in the mother tongue. Bet you can guess which ones we have here!

You think Tom Jones would sing “She’s a Lady” for Zelda?

I have no idea if these award eligibility posts actually DO anything other than lay bare the good and silly work I've been lucky to achieve in 2025. 11 short stories published (on top of finishing my first novel)! I'm very grateful to all the editors and publications who've given my words a go!

Getting physical copies of my writing never, ever gets old. So thankful “Give Me Wings” took flight in MONSTROUS ANGELS, edited by @arwyns.bsky.social. Order your copy and meet Arlo Pearson, that filmmaker who went to Armenia in search of a musical monk but found instead a murderous mystery.

Yet another BEST OF for SILK & SINEW! Not only is a treat to be included among so fine a roster of writers, but to again be lauded amongst today’s best horror authors… well, bless my soul! Major congrats to @garnetonwinter.bsky.social and @badhandbooks.bsky.social for all the solid buttkicking.

My son handed me the first page of his film script. Entitled “Alec Meets Stephen King,” I’m delighted by his use of “damn it” near the bottom edge. Beloved community, can we somehow get @stephenking.bsky.social to clap his eyes on this? I think we can!

Two years ago and a day, there I was at Stephen King’s manor in Bangor. Such an awesome time, and a wonderful tour provided by SK Tours. I remember watching Flanagan’s USHER series in my cabin and reading Barker’s THE GREAT AND SECRET SHOW. A lovely trip.

My six year old son wants to be John Williams for Halloween and so naturally I will be his Steven Spielberg. Quite a leap from last year’s Jack Skellington/Oogie Boogie, and greater still from the Mario/Luigi of two Halloweens ago.

Ok so I returned to @vromansbookstore.bsky.social to buy my son a book and I ran into @joerlansdale.bsky.social and one thing led to another and he asked me to autograph him a copy of SILK & SINEW from the inimitable @badhandbooks.bsky.social. Thanks, Joe! What an afternoon. Bookstores fuckin rock.

Quite eyecatching, eh? What a cover for MONSTROUS ANGELS, an anthology of divine horror coming in October! I'm thrilled my short story "Give Me Wings" is included. Read about shunned filmmaker Arlo Pearson—through his discovered letters—traveling to Armenia in search of a mystical, musical monk!

Hot dog! My Barnes & Noble has 3 copies of SILK & SINEW on the shelves… just below @stephenking.bsky.social! Big ups to @badhandbooks.bsky.social for making this happen. And my son was very kind and patient and happy about this hoopla but finally he asked, “Can we go look at the DVDs now?”
