After this Goodreads review of To Those Willing to Drown— "I kept thinking 'oh, it's not gonna go there, that's not gonna happen" and then the author GOES THERE and IT HAPPENS" —I hear the voice of Jack Ketchum, whispering in my ear: "Never Be Afraid to Go There"

Lot of unfortunate bullshit about publishers not paying authors on time. And for me, If a publisher doesn't have their shit together to pay on time and struggles to make ends meet, I have zero trust they're providing an accurate accounting of sales.

Warning: If you listen to this with the sound on, you will drown in the audio, and just before you die, the lake will speak most honestly into your ears with a final whisper... "pssstt—buy the paperback. That cover's bad-ass" www.amazon.com/Those-Willin...

Playthings on Black Mirror was my favorite of this season (so far.) I literally dreamed about the Thronglets last night. That ending was perfectly ambiguous.

Check it out! I'm a walking, self-promoting MoFo. The colors got funky in the shirt on the bottom of the lake, but that’s what happens when so many souls are willing to drown.

Just finished To Those Willing To Drown by @markmatthews.bsky.social and wow. 💀 Bleak, eerie, violent 🌊 Full of myth, grief, and teeth 🖤 Beautiful in the worst (best?) ways 200 pages of “what did I just go through” and I regret nothing. #booksky #bookreview peek-a-book.blog/2025/04/18/t...

"This is a story about grief, this is a story about love, this is a story about madness, this is a story about terror, but most importantly, this is story that must be read." 👇👇 amazon.com/dp/B0DNK5BRGM #booksky #kindleunlimited

My dad's birthday today. First since he passed away in August. I wore his big Michigan hoody in his honor. Size XL. Everything about my dad was BIG. Just like I am drowning here in his XL hoody, it was easy to drown in his presence. So strange to live in a world without him in it.

"Beautifully written and deeply unsettling, To Those Willing to Drown is a harrowing tale where love becomes obsession, grief becomes a weapon, and the lake knows more than it should. A must read for horror fans" 👇👇 www.amazon.com/dp/B0DNK5BRGM #Booksky

The Last of Us last night seemed like just a good Walking Dead episode. It didn't have the good stuff that set it apart season 1. Let's hope that's coming soon

'Sales' to date through amazon. 'Sales' is in quotes, because a good chunk of those were Freebies. How many were freebies? Don't ask such hurtful questions, please.
