Additionally wonderful things said about RAVENFIELD HALL thanks to the amazing Gothic fellow-traveler @christaqua.bsky.social

"(within the walls of what has to be the best Gothic mansion in recent history)" is a quote that makes MY ENTIRE LIFE!

Ravenfield Hall is a sumptuous Gothic mystery steeped in shipwreck lore, spectral whispers, and the fierce intelligence of a heroine determined to uncover the truth. Hieber delivers a haunting, romantic tale where the living and the dead collide (within the walls of what has to be the best Gothic mansion in recent history); the only thing darker and more dangerous than Ravenfield Hall’s shadows are its secrets.

The readings begin PROPERLY at 14:40, with @christaqua.bsky.social. There's a lot of goofing off and shop talk and intros before that.

"[A] haunting, queer homage to Edgar Allan Poe’s life and works . . . Readers searching for a twist on Poe’s themes and sensibilities will find them in Raven, where dread and passion dwell hand in hand within each page."--Booklist

I could not be more pleased to have a new collection on the horizon. @shortwavebooks.bsky.social @rapturepublishing.bsky.social!

More to come on this project soon. In the meantime... any guesses on the author writing the introduction?

The Daughters of Block Island by @christaqua.bsky.social is a terrific read that throws back to the gothic horror novels of the past but with a modern approach that heightens the entertainment. Carmen’s prose recreates the feel of those gothic novels while also being current. I recommend this book.
