It's Lesbian Visibility Week 🏳️🌈👩❤️👩
So...
Go ahead: perceive me, textually!
(I'm happy to say, there are dykes as far as the eye can see in every book I've written: horror dykes; con artist dykes; Dykes To Watch Out For, Lest They Turn Into Werefoxes...
You can't go wrong)

Good morning. Today I want to talk about @katsilvaauthor.bsky.social's wonderful novella, Undead Folk. www.briankeene.com/algorithmzer...
2/2 Now I think I could definitely write a remake of that one as an out and out scary horror film. To some degree, Charles L. Grant attempted that with his novel, The Long Night of the Grave.
The reprint of my short story collection is now live, available in ebook and paperback! I'll have signed copies in my shop soon, stay tuned!
Peep that awesome cover art by @mattwildasin.bsky.social !

A copy of Brian Keene’s Take the Long Way Home on top of a few other books.
The title page of Take the Long Way Home autographed by Brian Keene.
Book Mail yesterday. Recieved my 20th anniversary autographed copy of TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME. One of the best parts of ordering from @vortexbooksncomics.bsky.social is the little extras you find, like sexy head shot postcards of @briankeene.bsky.social.
If you are an author or editor at *ANY* level -- from beginner to jaded old veteran like me, click through to the article Todd's posting about, take 2 minutes, and email them to let them know you opt out. Will save us all time having to mount yet a 577th class-action suit down the road.
Hey want to be a writer? Then write. It’s not that hard to type or scrawl. Want to kneecap yourself? Use an AI to “assist” you. Discover how quickly you begin to rely on it, how fast you experience creative rot, how you cease to learn the craft, and how fast that original spark of passion dies.
The signed contracts are in. Two new publications forthcoming this year.

"Why does my @vortexbooksncomics.bsky.social package include a flyer for a retirement community?... Ohhh!" 🤣
Thank you! I had so much fun designing it, and I'm immensely grateful to @shortwavebooks.bsky.social for going along with my crazy idea. 🤣
A brochure for the Fairview Acres retirement community that is actually an ad for The Sundowner's Dance by Todd Keisling.
This is one of the best advertising gimmicks I've seen for a horror novel. It looks like a flyer for a retirement community. But it looks a little off...
There's a QR code on the back. It leads to a page for The Sundowner's Dance by @toddkeisling.com.

I did a thing today!
Stopped by @vortexbooksncomics.bsky.social and saw @briankeene.bsky.social and @marysangiovanni.bsky.social, and had a blast. This constituted a mini-roadtrip for me, @ecfnj.bsky.social and @bluntlittletool.bsky.social, along with The Bug, and it was a glorious outing.
