I may be teaching a horror course in Fall 2027; if so, it would be lovely to have you zoom in for a conversation with my students.

making me nervous. 3 days left and last stretch. in an age of slop conmen and seedy rights grabbers, feels all the more important to focus on the reliable mags we can trust. if you enjoy their work and are able, this is a good time to chip in. the best time even, some might say.

I have an essay on imaginary space that sums up a lot of the spatial theory on space vs place. I could send it to you via email if you like?

Authoritarian regimes benefit from people who are not smart enough to get promoted in traditional ladders but ambitious enough to commit crimes in their efforts to get ahead. Regimes give them a path. As we reduce education, as we reduce real opportunities, we are creating perfect conditions.

Maybe I shouldn't have scheduled my students to read SCHOOL FOR GOOD MOTHERS directly after the beautifully meditative PIRANESI. "This book is ragebait!" one student declared of SCHOOL. I don't disagree.

I've been teaching Susanna Clarke's PIRANESI this week and my God, what a lovely, lovely book. As the world gets progressively madder and more anxious, it's been a pleasure to return to its peaceful halls. If you haven't read this splendid fantasy novel yet, do yourself a favor and pick it up.

Had my first time teaching GIDEON THE NINTH to undergrads last week. Thankfully, they seemed to like it! I'm looking forward to hearing their thoughts on bodies & spaces as we get to the "mystery" section of the novel.

I have a story coming out in Ellen Datlow's forthcoming All Hallows Eve anthology! (It arrives Sept 2026, in time for next Halloween). I'm most curious about Josh Malerman's story. I loved BIRDBOX and I want what he does at short-story length. Pre-orders below the TOC: tinyurl.com/zujhc67a

I picked up this collection after reading Thomas Ha’s wonderful “window boy” last year. I’m only partway through reading the collection but can confirm that the first three stories are bangers. Ha has a knack for weird, surreal, and psychologically complex storytelling.

My post #WorldCon plane book was Anne de Marcken’s It Lasts Forever and Then It’s Over- a literary zombie novel using undead bodies as a metaphor for grief. It's short, spare, & poetic, with allusions to Judith Butler & Djuna Barnes. Liked it. Not sure I got everything it was doing on this read.

Quick plug: if you're at Seattle #WorldCon and haven't yet walked over to the fabulous Elliot Bay Bookstore, I highly recommend it. It's a wonderfully curated store with great staff picks & it's pretty close to the convention center. www.elliottbaybook.com
