I interviewed QUEER HORROR author @marcruvolo.bsky.social on the release of his novel, Pieties: Expanded Edition. He's revised his 2024 novella set in the 80s. A bold new cover; an additional 4,000 words; a reworked ending. Check it out at www.ryanlawrenceauthor.ca @slashichorrorpress.bsky.social
To a perfectionist seeking a book cover designer/illustrator, seeing that dreaded “2 revisions”... 🙈 🙉🙊
My pleasure! When I decided to make this post, including you was an absolute must.

Dear real estate search,
Stop showing us nice houses with 3 bedrooms—and ONE BATHROOM!!! No. One bathroom isn’t just undesirable—for two gay men it’s a hate crime.
When you’re visiting someone and see this… 😁
Looks great!
I've been a huge Christian Death fan since the mid 90s. I met Rozz in 1996 at the height of my gothness. Heh. I obssessivly collected his/thier music (and still have it all). He was a complex and complicated man. A gay gothic pioneer. He might have inspired my look back then...😏
Cover of PIETIES, by Marc Ruvolo. A desecrated Mary statue in a Japanese bamboo garden.
My novella comes out April 15th, hot on the heels of my birthday on the 8th! Queer supernatural horror set in 1980s Chicago suburbs. Take a look, you may like it... #booksky #queerhorror #horror #indiepress #religion books2read.com/pieties
I want this over my bed. Husband gets no say. 😏
