🤣🤣🤣

One of my favorite stories just made it to the final round of choices… god I hope it gets picked. 🤞

All roads lead to Derry.

#ItWelcomeToDerry is coming this October to HBO Max.

I do find it funny that Thomas Ligotti is a Cancer ♋️🦀🤣
(I am also)

My favorite story I have ever written just keeps getting rejected and I’m like 🤪😫

What’s the chances that @stephenking.bsky.social would let me use a line for an epigraph for my novel? I know he loves a good epigraph. If he did, I’d use “We lie best when we lie to ourselves” said by Mike Hamlin in “IT”. “IT” is one of my favorite books, and also why I love living in Bangor. 🎈

Looking for both agents and editors. Send me your recs!

Basically finished with my novel but I am finding that a lot of publishers will not accept any submissions containing SA. On one hand I am wondering if I need to rewrite and remove that part. On another hand, in a few different ways it’s an integral part of the story. So not really sure what to do..

My story “The Ash House Tapes” is out now through @suburbanwitchlit.bsky.social !

Reading “We like it 🍒right after reading #BHH 2 books before also hit different for me. Really want to read more Native American Horror novels. Also i pictured the titular 🍒 scene in the book almost in an absurdist lynchian way. What’s great story @jacymorris.bsky.social @tenebrouspress.bsky.social

Just finished @jacymorris.bsky.social ‘s We Like It Cherry. Me definitely like it 🍒! An awesome amalgamation of mythology, horrific imagery, survival and love. It will have you ponder the impact of climate change while also wondering what a human eyeball might taste like @tenebrouspress.bsky.social

Just finished up Cold Eternity by S.A. Barnes and now onto We Like It Cherry by Jacy Morris

Hmmmmm

Looking for some kind folk to read a draft of my novel “Behind the Veil”. Thematically I’d call it a story inspired by House of Usher, Hill House, Rebecca, Ligotti, Barron, and local WNC historical research. Looking for kind words and constructive criticism. Let me know if you’d be interested!

Submitted my first non-fiction piece for publication, entitled “
Maine’s Foggy Liminality and its influence on Horror & Art”

I always fail to write a seasonal story in time for the actual season. Tried to write a springtime story by May 1st and epically failed at that 😂
Oh well, at least I found this book at the library.

Between Neil Gaiman and now Neil Degrasse Tyson, I’m pretty upset at the two Neil’s I used to look up to. I own multiple books by these Neil’s.
Next time I have a bonfire I have some kindling I guess. “Death by Black Hole”, “Sandman”, “Stardust”, “Smoke & Mirrors”, “American Gods”, all in the fire!

Currently in the novel I am writing “Behind the Veil”, I am exploring how a ‘haunted’ house can be both like a person and a liminal space, it felt cool to read a similar situation flipped. Can’t wait to read the rest of the split scream stories @carsonwinter.bsky.social @tenebrouspress.bsky.social

Finally diggin in to the @tenebrouspress.bsky.social Split Scream series and started with “The Guts of Myth” by @carsonwinter.bsky.social . I loved the exploration of a person as a liminal space or gateway. The backstory and dynamics are compelling. The ending is a gut puncher too. Bravo

HONEYMOON They pulled up in their rented red convertible to 76 Achlys Cove. Morgan let out a gasp.

New story “Honeymoon” out now on www.darkharbormagazine.com/honeymoon/ check it out!

I identify with HP Lovecraft in the fact that, most of the time, I’m more interested in the lore, history and the aesthetics of the setting of the story than I am the characters. Characters feel like the vocals of a song—- they’re important, but they aren’t always what make a song great.

I think I first gravitated to horror when I lost my belief in god. I realized the fairytale I’d been fed about a god who loved everyone was a lie, and once that happened the horrors of the world were revealed. Horror, in all of its forms, taps the vein of reality more than anything else.

Nothing like receiving 5 rejections in 48 hours 🥴 #numbersgame

“I’ve heard our elders and many-faces men and even chiefs say that it’s the napikwans who are ruining the world, but napikwans are just what happens when we forget we’re Pikuni. When we think a many-shots gun is more important than beaver medicine.”

I am reading it right now about 100 pages in, and it’s truly phenomenal. I have a feeling this will end up being one of the best horror stories I have ever read, and one of my favorite pieces of literature.

Thanks to The Briar Patch in Bangor for having a fun “Derry-free” horror book club meeting this evening! Good discussions about how messed up Fred is.

Super frustrating when you feel like the stories you work the hardest on or are the most unique get rejected more than the ones you don’t feel as strongly about
