Hate to break it to everyone but these times are very very precedented

Well, this is lovelier than I can put into words. I’ve been following the Stoker Awards since I was a teen & it’s always been a career goal to have the words “Stoker nominee” in my bio. I am just so grateful to all who voted & to @shortwavebooks.bsky.social for giving REST STOP such an amazing home.

The Australien Government has made an ad to announce the 2025 election, and it's surprisingly honest and informative. #auspol

🖤🙏 You will have my eternal gratitude (as well as an imagination forever tainted with giant things that could be the offspring of earth or the cosmos, but ever crawl and creep*) *potentially

If you ever see a shortened or fun spelling in a text or post written by me, know I had to fight autocorrect to sound that chill and casual.

men who dressed like this from 2008 - 2012 had preppy menswear blogs

That feeling when you fall in love with a new-to-you artist; make contact; discover a Human w/similar artistic urges & ethics; create a mutual admiration society; &—vital to an indie press!—the $ they request to do what they do is right in your wheelhouse... ...what was I saying? Oh yeah, FUCK A.I.

The apocalypse was meant to be badass and metal, but it’s just a bunch of fucking losers and rich idiots marching Earth to the lamest ending ever. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

I bet everyone’s always talking about what a narcissist I am

Pope on the ropes?

Stephen King (preferably alive). It’d be cool to study how he goes about editing and plotting work while crafting a new story. #HorrorWritersChat

I just want a job that is secure and extremely high paying but also fun and really easy

Not a fun read, but a grim reminder that ALL hate crime is on a rise in Australia. #auspol www.sbs.com.au/news/podcast...

There are many good feelings in the world, but not many are as good as the feeling of holding your completed trilogy in your hands 🖤🌟 linktr.ee/allshallmour...

Opinion | "If a couple of articles in The Australian and a single question in the Senate is all it takes to create a controversy about arts funding, then Creative Australia might as well pack up and go home."

Using my full name on BlueSky to promote my writing feels like something I’ll regret when speaking with HR at some point. Especially when I keep sharing posts like this

an old webworm from @haydendonnell.bsky.social that i keep thinking about: "the myth of the self-made man - why do the rich refuse to admit they just got lucky?" www.webworm.co/p/therich

I've put together a fledgling Starter Pack of LGBTQIA+ #horror #TTRPG creatives to help folks connect and follow talented writers, designers, illustrators, podcasters, and other creatives in this area. Please reply/drop me a message if you'd like to be added. go.bsky.app/JPV9Mxs

Unless someone has a better idea, I say we put all our energy toward radicalizing Bill Burr until he becomes the "Joe Rogan of the left" that we were promised

Not every book lands as hard as we wish. None of em make us rich. We've also never signed a sure thing w/baked-in clout & name value. We trust 100% in our vision & we know that WE are the right press for The Weird Books™️. We pour everything we have into every release. It's working out alright🖤☠️
