SILENT NIGHTMARES audio book showcase #2. Another of the book's narrators is Janina Edwards, and you can listen to a sample here. Available from @simonaudio.bsky.social. I highly recommend the audio book as a companion to the hardcover or eBook.
A beautiful book by @nettirw.bsky.social and @chuckpalahniuk.bsky.social with a wide array of voices from their contributors. Silent Nightmares is out now 💞💀
Thank you! Chuck and I had so much fun putting it together, and have high hopes for future volumes!
Excited to announce that my poem "Unauthorized Territory" was just announced as the winner of the 2026 SFPA Poetry Contest (dwarf form). You can read it in the linked Science Fiction and Fantasy Poetry Association announcement.
SILENT NIGHTMARES audio book showcase #1. Did you know the anthology has multiple narrators? One is Helen Laser, and you can listen to a sample here. Available from @simonaudio.bsky.social.
FAMILIAL REFLECTIONS contains a favorite of mine called "Ghosts of Calistoga," a dialogue-only beyond-life tale about geothermal areas, Bram, Dallas (Jack Ketchum as a father figure), death, and the insignificance of time. Highly recommended in audio!
Today is the launch (book birthday) for SILENT NIGHTMARES, edited by @chuckpalahniuk.bsky.social and me. Published by @sagapressbooks.bsky.social, an imprint of @simonandschuster.bsky.social. Also available in eBook and audio from @simonaudio.bsky.social.

Another piece I drew for the Silent Nightmares anthology! This one's for Brian Evenson's "Father Christmas," about a son pursued by a supernatural entity claiming to be his dying, abusive father. @nettirw.bsky.social @brianevenson.bsky.social @sagapressbooks.bsky.social @chuckpalahniuk.bsky.social
And if you want a peek at more of the artwork, I'm sharing 3 different pieces on each social media platform.
Seven days . . .

$6.82 per word is now the highest rate I have ever been paid for my work. Only 22 words, but still . . .
Two exciting announcements for THE LIBRARY OF THE UNDEAD! The anthology proudly welcomes "Fire Fall on Them" by the wonderful @genni.bsky.social, and "Learning to Fly" by @gordrollo.bsky.social (the original would not have existed without him, and so herein he will forever be entombed).
Only a few announcements remain for THE LIBRARY OF THE UNDEAD, but one of those happens to be Jamal Hodge with a story called "A World Without Terror, a World Without Love."
