A rendition of the cover of Costs of Living edited by Steve Capone, Jr. It has a haunted looking house surrounded by ominous grayscale clouds.
Once again asking my lovely followers to check out COSTS OF LIVING from #WhisperHousePress (ed. by
@whisperhousepress.bsky.social) which has my story "Just Being Neighborly" in it. It's good!

Two fun facts about the DREAD MONDAYS anthology that's in galleys and is nearly complete:
(1) The manuscript currently sits at 78,042 words.
(2) There are 54 instances of the word "fuck," which amounts to just shy of .07 % of the text.
