Cover for It Looks Like You in The Dark on top of one of my icy lake photos with a little filter applied.
I’ve never preordered a book so fast... @mathildazeller.bsky.social has an Indigenous horror debut, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU IN THE DARK, coming out October 2026!!! I became an instant fan when I read her short story "Kushtuka" in Never Whistle at Night. SO EXCITED! #booksky #indigenous #books
Stunned and grateful for the support, friends.
Thank you!!
♥️♥️♥️
Elated to share @mathildazeller.bsky.social’s cover art for her Indigenous horror debut, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU IN THE DARK, which expands her short story “Kushtuka” from that one anthology. It’s out October 13, 2026 and you should consider preordering it today :)

This book was both the easiest and hardest thing I've ever written.
It's also the least made up thing I've written.
Quyanaq to @tornightfire for your faith in it, my agents for your advocacy, the incredible designers of the cover, and all the phenomenal people who said nice things about it.

I have:
1) a newsletter that bothers inboxes less than once a year
and
2) something very cool that I would love your help with
So come sign up. If you do it before midnight tonight you'll be in on the party 😌🤫

It was a pleasure to read it. <3
Hey, thanks for the shoutout! (sorry I'm seeing this so late!)
"The former centers on the Kushtuka, a creature who takes the form of a loved one, and a young woman whose sister goes missing from her remote Alaskan town." HOLY SHIT. My childhood in Alaska was FULL of Kushtuka ghost stories, so I'm gonna be FIRST IN LINE for @mathildazeller.bsky.social's book.
HEYYY Yes!! I'm so glad to hear it!!
“Kushtuka” by @mathildazeller.bsky.social in H&O’s #TheGhostBoxIV
How you hoped it would end.
Indeed @ttbrader.bsky.social similar in the devouring, but this time it’s for revenge/justice and not, um, supper.
I need to pay more attention to the graphics on the cover of the stories…

Shared themes with yesterday's 'Window': smiles that distort faces, teeth that tear flesh ...
"...if it weren't flesh & blood itself, it wouldn't be able to do, whatever it just did."

It's Sherlockian and I'm (literally lol) feeling it
