When you lay them down for a nap but, after closing the door, you hear the howling from the other side of the house. Nope, it's not a werewolf. It's my 2 year old. 😅

This Killer on the Road from @sstpublications.bsky.social is gorgeous. Also, I just got the wide version of that cover, much larger, back from the framer. One of the very coolest covers I’ve lucked into. Thanks, Francois Vaillancourt. Also? Killer was the most fun to write of any of my novels.

Book jacket: a big rig/tractor from a low angle, such that we can see “Stephen Graham Jones” on the tall bumper. “Killer on the Road” is on the side of the hood. Truck’s dingy red, has seen some miles.

Even on my most emotionally taxing days, I get to have this little sprite running up to me, more excited than anyone could be about Ghostface or Michael, pumpkins or skeletons... Not me, what, with a smile on my face, forgetting about everything else.

This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY

In 2018 I lost my best friend... my dad. And, the worst part wasn't that it was a year after my mom... It was that I found his body... and? And I was completely alone. I never got over it. So, I spent hours creating to commemorate them and connect with others. So, sharing the "coming soon" 🤍

As someone who has been tweeted about personally by Rowling. And who spends my whole life trying to fight the damage caused by the litigation she funds. I think, personally, I would be less harmed by you giving me an actual kick in the ribs than watching the new Harry Potter & trying to justify it.
