David Lynch opened and held a place for art that other creators could point to whenever a potential editor or producer wanted to turn their work down because it was too weird, and get that work made/published etc. He kept proving audiences weren't dumb.

This is a painful loss. David Lynch, I will miss you, your daring art and your truly unique personality.

Well, I received one box of Scott Nicolay's new novella _caterpillars_, but the second box is somewhere in the bowels of the USPS, last seen in Phoenix AZ. sigh So if you order now you still have a chance to win a copy of Scott's rare 2015 novella _after_. Only 23 copies of _caterpillars_ left!

Laird Barron is a titan of modern prose. The words he chooses, the pictures he paints, combine together for a phenomenal experience called Not A Speck of Light. You can read my full ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review here: www.facebook.com/CharsHorrorC... @badhandbooks.bsky.social @lairdbarron.bsky.social #horrorsky

In our quest to bring you the best in contemporary weird fiction, few titles have had the lasting impact and influence of John Langan’s Bram Stoker Award-winning novel, The Fisherman, which Word Horde published in 2016.

One episode into The Penguin and I'm hooked. Feels like it takes place in a world midway between Batman and The Sopranos. Great writing, intriguing characters, solid acting.

Authors and Publishers, it's worth checking this website which seems to be giving away free downloads of all kinds of ebooks, including some of my own.

I’ve been weirdly uninterested in reading fiction for a while. Nothing like a new Laird Barron collection to get me excited to sit down and read! @lairdbarron.bsky.social @badhandbooks.bsky.social

I love to see so many people still flowing in here (and also to Threads) away from Twitter. Welcome, new people!

I avoided Star Trek: Enterprise all these years because I thought I wouldn't like it (probably because of the theme song) even though I love pretty much all Star Trek. I'm glad my wife convinced me to try it, because it's a lot of fun, and now I wish there were more than four seasons.

Creative friends who have taken a break from your art form, after some time away from, say, writing, do you still consider yourself a writer? If you don't paint a picture for a year or two, do you still think of yourself as a painter?
