New short story is now available as a free ebook from @subpress.bsky.social Cover art by @scribeofhades.bsky.social With echoes of Ray Bradbury and The Twilight Zone, I KNOW WHAT YOU NEED is a suspenseful tale in which the antidote for apathy and chaos is looking out for each other L I N K⬇️

Happy Publication Day to the paperback edition of my novel, BOYS IN THE VALLEY! Excited to get this new edition, with new cover art and a wonderful cover blurb, out into the world. Link in Comments.

My eternal thanks to the great @claymcleod.bsky.social for reading this book and offering such a wonderful blurb. We tried to convince Ronald Malfi he didn’t need to sign it, but he insisted. A few copies are still available from Earthling Publications

The beautiful Lettered editions of my books to date. So thrilled to own these copies of my work. Publishers shown: Lividian, Thunderstorm, 19th Edition, Zagava.

The dude that introduced me to this book called it “The best anime ever caught in book form”. This is my fourth time through this book in under a year… so yeah… I agree with that statement! Thanks for writing this gem @robjhayes.bsky.social.

The February List of Self Published Fantasy Releases is now LIVE! A lot of releases this month and from some big names in the community. Check it out! Linksies: www.robjhayes.co.uk/self-publish...

This beauty arrived in Norway today. All the way from Earthling Publications over in the US of A no less. It looks great!!! ...but it's more than likely a great read as well, knowing @tjoneswriter.bsky.social 😉👍

Just turned in final edits for this one and I can't wait for folks to visit Autumn Springs and meet Rose and Miller and all my friends there. I'm so proud of this book and I truly believe it's my best work to date.

Junichi Yasuda's A SAMURAI IN TIME #侍タイムスリッパー will be playing in Canada at the 31st Victoria Film Festival on Feb 12th! https://buff.ly/40DE3fQ

I am incredibly excited to announce that @panmacmillan are reprinting the Of Blood and Bone trilogy in brand new covers. Personally, I’m very happy to have some more covers that match the style and colour palette of The Faithful and the Fallen and I love how these have come out.

Both @joerlansdale.bsky.social and @joshmalerman.bsky.social do great work, so I can't wait to dive into these. Thanks to Paul at @sstpublications.bsky.social for the usual excellent quality books... and for getting them to me safely. 👍😄

Kind words from a good friend and one of my favorite writers. These are almost sold out, and there is not a trade edition planned at the moment, so this is the only version of the novel at the moment. If you want one, you can order directly from Earthling Publications.

Thank you @robjhayes.bsky.social , the smarter bearded one (at least a way better writer) and dog lover (even though cats are very much superior). The book landed a couple of days ago, and today I had to brave a damn snowstorm to get it... but I prevailed... 👍😀 #book #fantasy #fantasybooks #reading

We are pleased to reveal our special edition of The Third Rule of Time Travel by @pfracassi.bsky.social 🦋⏳️

We are thrilled to be producing a special edition of When the Moon Hits Your Eye by @scalzi.com 👀🧀

Signed my first deal for a comic book script! Super excited to create a story for a medium I've never worked in before. (artwork by Timothy Aymar)

We are beyond excited to reveal the mock ups for our special edition of Hyperion by Dan Simmons! 😍🥳

Available now in paperback / ebook from @lethepress.bsky.social!

When you can't wait for the newest book in the series to land in your mailbox... @robjhayes.bsky.social

After a number of setbacks, we are pleased to confirm that Malazan is finally in the building! Work on packing sets has already begun 🥳

David Lynch gave us the language we needed to better articulate the indescribable strangeness of our shared reality. “Lynchian” is so overused because it’s a viscerally understandable word without any known synonyms. I can’t imagine a more beautiful artistic legacy than that.

"We're all like detectives in life. There's something at the end of the trail that we're all looking for." R.I.P David Lynch and thank you for all the incredible art you leave us with.

Looks like Amazon is blowing out the hardcovers of BOYS since the paperback releases soon. FYI for those who are in the market. Just $15 as of this post. These are all first printings (it never went into a second). www.amazon.com/Boys-Valley-...

Next week: @tjoneswriter.bsky.social short story collection returns to print in a spiffy new edition!

We're so excited to share that we've acquired the Golden Princess library! Crown jewels include Woo’s action masterpieces “Hard Boiled,” “The Killer,” the complete “Better Tomorrow” trilogy, “Bullet in the Head,” and “Once a Thief.” variety.com/2025/film/as... via @variety.bsky.social
