Look what came in today! On top of last year's Bram Stoker, Elgin, and Dwarf Stars Award, I also placed 2nd for the Rhysling Award for my poem "A Black Hole is a Melting Pot That Will Make Us Whole." Now to find a frame. Much love to everyone who has supported me!
Happy release day to my second novel, The Swallowed Town…
I’m here to chew bubblegum and write weird, challenging cosmic horror… and I’m all out of bubblegum.
Happy pub day to @cfpage.bsky.social and The Swallowed Town!
It's a great horror novel packed with mystery...if you love House of Leaves and The King in Yellow, you'll love this book!

Early readers have spoken. So much dread.
“It’s a literary achievement of the highest order… epic, cosmic horror and existential dread.”

All right. So I’m back on this BlueSky thingy because X is chock-full of bots, and I just can’t stand it. How do I use this? Do I just say stuff? How’s the algorithm?
[Potentially] perfect for fans of:
-H.P. Lovecraft
-Thomas Ligotti
-Clark Ashton Smith
-Algernon Blackwood
-Robert Aickman
-William Hope Hodgson
-John Langan
-Matthew M. Bartlett
-early-career Stephen King
It’s also really short.

If you’re a member, & you think a cosmic horror novel sounds good (think Get Out meets The Thing), please consider voting for NATIVE FEAR. I will also send y’all a paperback—if I make it to top 32, and if you live in the US.
Native Fear is FREE on Amazon 👽

Author spotlight: Brian Evenson
Brian Evenson is easily one of the greatest writers of prose in modern horror (and sci-fi).
Have you read Evenson?
If so, what’s your favorite work by him?
Yes yes yes yes. They were born to adapt Control to film.
My sci-fi cosmic horror novelette's out now! Follow the Iink beIow!
"Black Mirror meets Blade Runner, INEVITABILITY throws you into a world where memories can be modified, reality is unreliable, and discovering the truth is more dangerous than finding it."
Voting applicable only to Books of Horror members (on Facebook). If you’re not a member, and you’re a fan of horror, you should definitely join the group. It’s a great way to find horror novels and indie authors who are making a splash.
The Brawl is a big deal because it gives power to the reader.
Does any other writer out there get anxious because you don’t know if you should write a new story or start editing a previous story?
That’s my current dilemma. I feel guilty not writing new material, but I simultaneously feel guilty neglecting a previous story.
That’s probably a me problem.
Great blurb from @ivygrimes.bsky.social.
The Swallowed Town is expected to be released at the end of the year by @nwreader.bsky.social, and I can't wait for everyone to delve down this strange, dark rabbit hole.
Look what came in the mail.
Haunted Ecologies by @coreyfarrenkopf.bsky.social.
Twin Peaks, The Leftovers, Severence…
Why are these the ONLY high-quality weird TV shows I can think of?
I think “Petey.” It showcased a very patient kind of storytelling, that without that slow-burn approach, the ending wouldn’t have worked as well as it did.
Dark Gods by T.E.D. Klein (which I mentioned on the podcast that my family bought for me for my birthday). It was incredible.
#TwinPeaks

Boo.
I’ll check it out. I wonder if it’s on the PlayStation store.
lol. And nice. I love all three of those games, too—except I never beat Soma or MoM. I have a weird habit of whenever I start liking a game—or at least getting writing inspiration—I stop playing it because I’m afraid the game will drop the ball and I won’t like it anymore.
What are your top 5 cosmic horror books, films, video games, and/or TV shows?
(I’m pretty sure I’ve read, watched, and played everything there is [i.e., of high quality], but I’m always looking for things I’ve missed.)
A well-written but underwhelming collection of character-centric fiction. While there was some True Detective DNA in the drama and some dialogue, I am a bit perplexed that the stories within this collection are devoid of anything resembling the genre Pizzolatto is known for in TV.
