Closest thing to Chekov’s Rifle I can think of is “A poem should not mean / But be.” I can’t argue with that.

One of the Cmlitfest highlights for me: Listening to one of my favorite poets, @upfromsumdirt read his work and discovering he’s funny as hell. He is one of our finest Appalachian poets. Then when he came to my reading being able to open with his epigraph in Hollow Folk:

The audiobook for my horror novella 8:59:29 is almost ready. I'm really excited about this one--the book made it to the semifinal selections for the 2023 Stokers (hey, my competition was Tananarive Due!), and the narrator is one of my very favorite actors. It's fantastic. And it's short. And cheap.

Happy launch week to my good friend @pollyschattel.bsky.social ‼️ Polly is a Bram Stoker nominated author and I love her new one, CRATER GIRL. In Crater Girl, Polly Schattel crafts a surreal Southern gothic mystery built on dread and momentum in equal measure.

She's comin!

Greta Tyler has issues. She’s broke, divorced, trans, recently defrocked from her Episcopal priesthood, and her underpaid assistant hates her. But hey, things could always be worse, right?

As a social worker in a small, northern Alabama city, Greta’s just trying to do a little good in the world, and also come to terms with a complicated new life, a demanding new career, and the crushing finality that her marriage to her childhood sweetheart is over for good. But when her friend Suhey fails to show for a party, Greta suspects the worst: Suhey’s either been deported or kidnapped. Thus begins an increasingly surreal odyssey through the inscrutable byways and backroads of contemporary rural America.

Tormented by self-doubt, and with a tendency to harm whatever she touches, Greta careens through a sinister underworld she never knew existed—billionaires and busboys, asteroids and assassins, human traffickers and misfit geniuses … and also an infernal plan to radically change the world.

But first, how to come up with the rent?

Crater Girl is Polly Schattel’s genre-jumping tale of gender politics, self-loathing, clandestine organizations, interstellar geology, thuggee death cults, and the search for personal redemption in the rusted over-sprawl of the meta-modern South. #lgbt #trans #transgender #fantasy #booksky
