There is genuinely nothing better than holding a friend's book in your hands for the first time. The genius queen @sasharavitch.bsky.social has this new freaky duology out and I'm so stoked to own it! Get yours here: weirdpunkbooks.square.site/product/enfr...

HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

Dark money group offers influencers $1,500 for posts attacking Chicago Democratic primary candidate
Progressive House candidate Kat Abughazaleh told MS NOW the secretive campaign is “filled with false and defamatory claims.”

this shit is so harmful because it makes people think that a book is made up of plot points and not language

In his acceptance speech for award for best screenplay, Ryan Coogler said “when you look at a blank page, think of who you love” and I dunno, that really moved me so I wrote it down and sat it on my desk to look at while I work
A whiteboard leaned against a shelf with many trinkets. On the whiteboard, it says “When you look at a blank page, think of who you love”

A vaporous spirit floats up out of a deck of playing cards that’s also a source of water. The spirit has its hands out in supplication/invitational display. It wears a steel helmet with deer antlers coming out the sides.

Theia Chatelle's amazing photograph of Greg Ketter, owner of DreamHaven Books in Minneapolis...emerging from a cloud of tear gas. Signed there a couple of times, great SF/Fantasy bookstore.
Seventy-year old man with white beard in dark wool hat and dark glove walks from the right out of a concentrated cloud of smoke, with a stark bare branch young tree in front of him and two red decorative pavement markers to either side.

The Night Ship is out today, marking the end of my fifth year in publishing since my very first little publication. So in honor of that milestone, here's the five most important things I've learned as an artist in that time:
Something hungry lurks below. THE NIGHT SHIP (orange and black cover, a truck and radio dials). Unsettling and immersive, readers will be on the edge of their seats - publishers weekly. OUT NOW from flame tree press
