In the background, an ominous black and white photo of a lighthouse amid a cloudy sky and stormy seas. White, grey, and orange text on the graphic reads: "Blog Feature" and "The Liminal Space: A Weekend at StokerCon." The author J.R. Blanes' name appears beneath this text. A circular black and white photo of J.R. sits to the left outlined in orange and white. The Ruadán Books logo appears centered at the bottom.
"This is a horror convention, after all."

Cover of "The Vampire Gideon's Suicide Hotline" with a dark blue background, vampire skull, and red call center headset.
As a writer, and struggling reader, I make reading is a habit. I really treasure books that I enjoy. Here's one of those books that I picked up at #Stokercon2025 from Andrew Katz. Check out: Vampire Gideon's Suicide Hotline.
Enjoying it very much. Hits hard in dialog between Gideon & the callers.
Still no resolution except a handful of Hilton Honors points. This is money lost on the missing package + revenue loss, funds I use to support my family. #Hilton is refusing to return it to me. #corporatethieves #hotel #stokercon2025 @horrorwritersassoc.bsky.social

This weekend at #stokercon2025 someone said that we need horror now more than ever because horror teaches us how to fight monsters.
I wrote that on top of my program at the awards ceremony. (I was not nominated and therefore did not win.)
*HORROR TEACHES US TO FIGHT MONSTERS.*

I told so many people at #stokercon2025 about this chat last weekend, I hope we get new people!
Trish, you're welcome.
Based (as I am) in NYC, Mr. Dolan attended #StokerCon2025 and one of his horror authors is Tim Waggoner, a four-time Bram Stoker Award winner.
But perhaps you've already interviewed Tim....?
Attention all of you #stokercon attendees out there.

I had so much more fun than I could even imagine at #stokercon2025 Met some friends, got a bunch of books, and got so jazzed up to write! I didn't take a ton of pictures, but was glad to be in the moment instead.
🖤 🏆 A great privilege to share award news from two terrific people who brighten the poetry landscape!

Mentally, I'm here. Blissful, foggy, and inspired from #StokerCon2025
To my delight, @sifsniffs.bsky.social vended at #stokercon2025, so I snagged a new perfume (the owner podcasts w/ a Philly perfumer I've also bought from--how "the world is so small" is that?), but I also had a small scent library w/ me: Kerosene Unknown Pleasures,
