This novella is SO GOOD

Such a fantastic book!

4/21/26 — BRIAN KEENE First published in 2020, this novella — an utterly ruthless and unforgiving mix of grief horror and psychological horror — was heralded by Bloody Disgusting, this Is Horror, and others as one of the b...

Good morning. It's day 17 of Women In Horror Year and we're getting the week started right: www.briankeene.com/algorithmzer...

Oh, God, Steve, you are embarrassing yourself. You're an overweight, middle-aged man who just had to have a priest tape his ass shut in front of all our friends and family. Do you know how unusual it is for a priest to tape one of those shut?

Back in 2018 when CLICKERS FOREVER edited by @briankeene.bsky.social came out, I was including an 'Angry Crab in Top Hat' sketch for anyone who asked.

Everyone blaming potential victims and witnesses for “not talking” or “speaking out” are also at fault for upholding the institutions that empower and protect predators. It’s not the responsibility of the abused to protect the public but the public to protect the vulnerable. Tyrants are created.

If you live near Wyomissing, PA — all the Brian Keene and @toddkeisling.com books at B&N are freshly signed. Also, there’s only one copy of @ronaldmalfi.bsky.social’s The Hive left because we bought copies.

4/18/26 — BRIAN KEENE But what really spoke to me with Bishop is her mastery of using setting and place to help drive the story. The Great Northern wilds are so vividly detailed and fleshed out here, the wilderness very ...

Happy Day 16 of Women In Horror Year to all who celebrate... which should be all of you. www.briankeene.com/algorithmzer...

Good morning. It's Day 15 of Women In Horror Year, and today we're talking about @jvgachs.bsky.social fantastic Unholy. www.briankeene.com/algorithmzer...

OpenAI: We’re burning money like the Joker. A miracle needs to happen for us to turn a profit

Microsoft: Please please use our AI systems, we’re teetering on the edge here

Anthropic: I wonder what’ll kill us first: lawsuits, regulations or model collapse

Media and universities: AI is here to stay

Yep.

Speaking as someone who ate countless meals on the mess deck of a similar military ship… this is the quickest way to the crew turning mutinous. The *one* thing the US Navy always had going for it was the food quality. Fucking shocking. 😳

Yep. Worked with and read, and will be posting about her over the year. 😎

I've updated this today's Blog entry with some new info.

That’s the perfect setting for it 😎

"Other than perhaps John Langan’s The Fisherman, I’m hard pressed to think of a horror novel that’s done more to expand, shift, and grow cosmic horror more in the last ten years than this book."

Thank you so much, Brian, this is most incredible praise 🖤

THE WORM AND HIS KINGS was the first book of modern cosmic horror I read, and it changed the game for me. It's a shame it's out of print because I want everyone to read it if they want to know what the current face of cosmic horror looks like. #booksky 💙📚

Gah! Good to know. Ill amend the post

Who do I know that might be attending the Locus Awards in Berkeley on May 30th?

It is day 14 of Women In Horror Year, and I'm talking about @haileypiperfights.bsky.social fantastic The Worm and His Kings. www.briankeene.com/algorithmzer...

Had a great meeting with @daciamarnold.bsky.social and @briankeene.bsky.social today. Here's what I can tell you so far.

We're definitely getting the band back together for a limited engagement. Figure probably sometime in May is when you'll see new content.

Get excited.
