I am so beyond excited that @tenebrouspress.bsky.social has picked up @davevriser.bsky.social's debut novel "Not Only Will This Kill You But It Will Hurt The Whole Time You Are Dying," I think y'all are gonna love it 🖤👻🦴
I'm thrilled <3
Publisher's Marketplace announcment: Dave V. Riser's NOT ONLY WILL THIS KILL YOU BUT IT WILL HURT THE WHOLE TIME YOU ARE DYING, in which a trans street kid turned necromancer trying to bring about the end of the world is captured by rival cultists from across the ocean, but traps them in turn in his crumbling tower surrounded by cosmic storms, only for the three to find themselves locked in a tender erotic cannibalistic stalemate with each other and the Old Ones, to Alex Woodroe at Tenebrous Press, for publication in summer 2027.
SIGNING ANNOUNCEMENT!
"O Tenebrous, WHY haven't you released more tender necromantic trans erotic cannibalism-tinged Weird Fantasy WHYYY"
Well we heard you, friends. We heard you.

That's so cool! My grandfather was a trucker, during the era the book is set in, so his stories inspired a lot of it. I'm sure it's absolutely riddled with inaccuracies because there's no substitute to real experience, so apologies for that 😅 I plan for audio someday but it might not be soon.
Honored to have made the cover for another top-tier horror anthology, filled with some phenomenal talent, from my friends at Tenebrous Press. 🖤🏳️⚧️🖤 Much love to you all!
i tweaked this drawing from a while back for this, initially to go with my story, now on its own
now that i am functionally awake have the mostly unedited color version
For #TDOV, if you have $5 (or more) to spare, pick up this year's #TransRightsBundle and support two queer charities in Idaho!
Hey, hey - it’s announcement day!!! 🎉🎉
I’m in this with so many other amazing weirdos & queerdos. My heart is full 🏳️⚧️📚😱
SO excited to be a part of this! I'm looking forward to hearing about what ending yall get when you get to my piece ♡
This is my first time having my art published in something and I'm so glad it's for this 💙

I love the lore
Wishing all trans and nonbinary people a very basic human rights, equality and respect on this Transgender Day of Visibility 🏳️⚧️🖤
The first volume changed my life and I'm sure the second is going to kick just as much ass. Congrats to all the contributors!
That is absolutely stunning
I'm in this one with Hatred Enthrones Me! I even made some art for it. Really a bucket-list success for me, and supporting a good cause.
I may be perceived for one day only. The other 364 says you're SOL. #tdov

SPLIT SCREAM vol. 8 cover; plus blurb by M.Shaw
In 3 weeks, SPLIT SCREAM returns from its yearlong slumber w/CURSED PLACES!

Preorder:

Cover for Daisy Pearce's SOMETHING IN THE WALLS. It features a wall with yellowish wallpaper with decorative flowers. It's peeling in the upper left, and you can see the wall slats behind the wallpaper. And behind those slats, there's an eye, watching. Creep.
Cover for Johnny Compton's MIGNIGHT SOMEWHERE. A hooded creature dominates the front. It's wearing a black hoodie, and all you can see under it is a grin with giant white teeth. The hoodie is near-translucent. I don't think this thing is up to any good.
Cover for Chuck Wendig's BLACK RIVER ORCHARD. It's a yellowish-orange cover, with a field in the bottom 1/6th or so, and there's an apple just north of center. Within that apple you can see a skull. DON'T EAT IT, IT'S PROBABLY BAD.
Cover for Alex Woodroe's WHISPER WOOD. It's blueish/greenish/grayish in color, with a tree growing on the left hand side. You can see down its roots, where mushrooms are growing, but they also look like tiny people and I don't like the creeps it's giving me.

Just finished @alexwoodroe.com's "The Night Ship".
It's a fusion of the best parts of "Pitch Black", "The Mist", and "Iron Lung".
The author's choice of '80s Romania as the backdrop imparts an omnipresent unease that melds and conflicts with the cosmic horror threat.
👍👍 / ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
That is probably a good decision :))
Thank you!
Looking forward to starting @alexwoodroe.com's "The Night Ship" tonight, but not until I have an absinthe to accompany me through the opening pages.
Book covers on a background of trees in the fog: The Night Ship by Alex Woodroe, Humboldt Cut by Allison Mick, The Cellar Below the Cellar by Ivy Grimes, KAYAK by Kristal Stittle, Nowhere Burning by Catriona Ward. A skull on a pile of books thinking “read or die.” Text at the bottom: some of my TBR for women in horror month
📚💀💅🏼 March is Women in Horror Month, and I’m really looking forward to these new and new-ish books on my TBR! Disclaimer: I am the most excruciatingly slow reader to walk/limp the earth 🐌 so these are from my 2026 but not-necessarily-March TBR…
#wihm #womeninhorror #womeninhorrormonth
Thank you @alexwoodroe.com!! This book scared the (figurative) pants off me.
