I really enjoyed writing this story - it's an Egyptian-themed cosmic horror, and I just love how it came out. The book, 'Flash of the Dead: Egypt', looks fantastic, it's a really good anthology of flash fiction horror. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿ“š #horror #egypt

New Book Day! I just got my copy of โ€˜Whateverโ€™, the Gen X anthology from Altitude Press. This is not a horror anthology, it has a lot of amazing stories full of great 80s vibes. My story, โ€˜Midnight Mixtapeโ€™, is a story about loss and music and just a little bit of magic. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ“š

Because someone asked me about it today, I'll share it here: I think my grossest story to date is 'The Garbage Chute', in the anthology KrankenHaus. It actually made an editor gag. High praise for a horror author! Who else has written really gross, gory stories? ๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ“š #horror #gory

"Providence Supernatural Crimes Unit is a dark, electrifying page turner that perfectly blends gritty police work with chilling supernatural horror. Officer Mary Rileyโ€™s plunge into a hidden world of impossible crimes is intense, atmospheric, and impossible to put down." ๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ“š #urbanfantasy

What do we think about Mondays? What should I post to 'drive engagement' (or just entertain folks)? I'm sure someone who is social-media savvy has a whole plan for this sort of thing, but I'm a Gen-X horror writer, so... ๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿ“š #authorreading ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ“š #horror

Just finished 'Gargoyle Safari' by Luciano Marano โ€” and wow.

A horror anthology with zero weak links. Supernatural dread, unsettling realism, dark humor, creature-feature chaosโ€ฆ Itโ€™s all here.

If you love bite-sized terrors that linger after you close the book, grab this one.
