First ride of the year. Don't know what's more embarrassing: the horrible time, how uncomfortably tight my riding pants were, or when I wiped out because my shoestring got tangled around my pedal and pulled me off the bike.

Looking for something fun to do this weekend? You could do worse than listen to me ramble, stammer, and babble for 90+ minutes on Horror from the High Desert. I even managed to keep the F-bombs to a minimum this time. (For me, at least. ) open.spotify.com/episode/1wbS...

So there's this famous horror podcast called Talking Scared that you've probably heard of. Well, Neil McRobert, host of said pod, was kind enough to give my book a gander. And he loved it! I hope y'all do, too. @talkscaredpod.bsky.social

My dogs are not impressed with the blurb I just got for my new novella, The Eris Ridge Trail, but I am both flabbered and gasted by it. I can't share it yet, or say who it's from, but I can say they're easily one of my favorite writers, and probably one of yours. I'm still pinching myself.

I have been remiss in promoting this fine piece of literature from @crystallake.bsky.social, which includes my cryptid story "Batsquatch Lives!" Hotel Macabre Vol.1: Tales of Horror a.co/d/1Pc0HIO

Got new glasses a couple weeks ago. Left eye in new specs was great, but right eye was shite. Finally went in today to make sure the lens was made correctly. Turns out they mistyped the prescription. One of the numbers was supposed to be 25, but they entered .25. Crisis averted!

Aw, Amazon's AI was nice enough to summarize the paltry number of reviews my collection has received.

‘One for the Road’ by Wesley Southard (@wesleysouthard.bsky.social) brings to mind old school horror in the vein of Brian Keene and Richard Laymon with a chaotic finale that turns the WTF factor all the way up to eleven!

As if mortgaging the team's future to sign an "alleged" sexual predator as QB wasn't enough of an FU to the fans, now the owners want us to fork over $1 BILLION to help build a new domed stadium in the burbs? They can fuck right off is what they can do. www.cleveland.com/opinion/2024...

I thought those idiots at Spine(less) were using AI to write 8,000 books a year. But the reality might be even worse: they're charging users between $1,200-5,000 to have their books edited, proofed, formatted & designed with the help of AI. In other words, it's just an AI-powered vanity press.

From the @vortexbooksncomics.bsky.social newsletter: "Some early ones are Owen King, Rio Youers, Joe R. Lansdale & Chet Williamson. And probably @toddkeisling.bsky.social, Larry Hinkle & John Urbancik because they basically live at the store." Related: Need to leave a toothbrush next time I visit.

My bio describes me as "the least famous author nobody's heard of" so this review is totally on-brand. "That Chemical Glow by Larry Hinkle. I’m not sure if I’ve ever read anything by Hinkle, but this one also really captures that vintage horror magic. It’s a fantastic story!" shorturl.at/qJNRB

I'm not a giallo fan, but this album scratches an itch I didn't know I had. It's a real soundtrack to a fake movie, complete with Italian dialogue. I've always dug Uncle Acid, but this is on a whole new level for the band. Bonus: it's great to write to.
