Issue 11 proof in hand. The Fall issue will actually be released early. July. As I have 2 other books due this Fall I want to stagger the releases. If you need to catch up, I have a special bundle deal on issues 9 and 10. Just $22! undertowpublications.com/shop/2-for-2...

Brand new micro joint @nightshadesmag.bsky.social is off to a very cool, weird start; they published a piece by li'l old me just this very morning. I hope you like eyeballs! www.annareser.com/ns-torches-p...

Just a guy sitting in a church. Nothing weird at all is going to happen in my latest piece at @ergot.bsky.social

Profoundly disturbing. And yes, I do mean that as a recommendation.

‘It was a bad year. The seas were on fire. I lost my job. My dad got ill. A minor injury to his groin had gone septic: it wasn’t looking good.’ interzone.digital/circus-skills/ Very pleased to return to @interzone.digital. ‘The next morning I felt really peculiar.’

"And my grandmother said: I’ve never wanted to do something so badly in my entire life. It was such a wonderful thing. Such a wonderful, wonderful thing." Today on ergot.: 'A Wonderful Thing' by Jack Klausner @jackklausner.bsky.social www.ergot.press/authors/Jack...

"I was about to rise and go into the house to help my mother find the drinks tray when, quite suddenly, my grandmother said, I’ve told you about the German, haven’t I?" Today on ergot.: 'A Wonderful Thing' by Jack Klausner @jackklausner.bsky.social www.ergot.press/authors/Jack...

Good morning hi would you like to know the BRAVE NEW WEIRD TABLE OF CONTENTS? tenebrouspress.com/blog/2025/5/...

I am delighted to once again have a story in The Dark. "One Will Grow to Eat the Other" is as cheery as it sounds. www.thedarkmagazine.com/one-will-gro...

It's a new day, a new month, and we continue to seek joy. Announcing the inaugural volume of The Best Weird Fiction of the Year, coming November. Details: bio.site/bestweirdfic...

Ghosts, Pokémon toys, and a boxcutter. My story “Last Skin on Earth” is up on @ergot.bsky.social 🔪 www.ergot.press/authors/Cale...

Samir is one of those writers who does something new and surprising in every story they write. Looking forward to this.

BEHOLD

The story in question: www.ergot.press/authors/Jack...

This was a nice bit of news to come home to this evening.

Fantastic. Folds dream-logic into everything in the best kind of way. This is how you do body horror.

Surprise release - now free to read on 3LB!

Story acceptance this morning, from one of my favourite publications. The drought is over!

Friends! We are delighted to receive these very generous words from the grea Brian Evenson for @thomasha.bsky.social's UNCERTAIN SONS. Pre-orders open. Shipping September. Reserve your copy here: undertowpublications.com/shop/uncerta...

Very, very tired. Glad to have a few planless, empty days ahead of me now.

Big congratulations to @sashabrown.bsky.social on his Stoker nomination. If you’re someone who can vote, you can find Sasha’s story via the Undertow / Weird Horror website (and if you’re not, read it anyway because it’s really good).

Another good, weird story I read today. The weirdness comes not only from the titular head but also from the protagonist’s response to it. Great fun.

Brilliant. Builds its weirdness to a kind of critical mass. Manages to explain nothing while still feeling ‘complete’ - which is my favourite kind of story. Will be checking out more @nightjarpress.bsky.social stuff in the future.

Book mail today from @nightjarpress.bsky.social - I shall report back in due course.

"Late in his life, long after he’d stopped being afraid of monsters in the dark, he found himself haunted by a certain movie..." New today at @ergot.bsky.social: "A Haunting"

For Valentine’s Day I hope you’ve all read the great work of romance of the 21st century

A new story by me in ergot.!

Sasha’s story is very good and you should read it.

This is great news and sorely needed in a dwindling landscape of print, well-edited horror magazines.
