Next up on my reading list is Carson McCullers' The Heart is a Lonely Hunter--something outside what I'd usually read. What's something you're reading now that's different from what you usually read?

One more day until The Nightmare Box opens! @gordonbwhite.bsky.social gives us a little peek of what's inside. Snag a copy from our website or request one at your local library!

JayZero won the Nightmare Box giveaway! DM me here or email cursedmorsels at gmail dot com with your mailing address, and I'll ship a copy of the book (plus a free zine) your way!

My favorite horror story set in a real place would be Thomas Ligotti's short story Purity. It was set within a real place in and around Michigan's Detroit suburban deteriorating neighbors.

The stories in Cynthia's horror/dark speculative fiction collection are frequently set in and inspired by Oakland, California. For a chance to win this book, like and retweet this post with your favorite horror story set in a real place and inspired by that place's history.

I have already been blessed with an ARC, but y'all should get on this. The title story is killer and the collection as a whole is very compelling.

I regret to inform you that there are ghosts everywhere. There is no escaping them. And if you read Why Didn't You Just Leave, the hauntings will not cease even after you close the book.

I'm thinking of including a new zine bundle as part of the Antifa Worlds K!ckstarter. Five zines with the following themes:

Thank you so much to Cina Pelayo for blurbing The Nightmare Box. The space she takes up for Latine horror, and the sweep of her range -- from poetry to wonderfully dark horror stories to wonderfully dark novels -- is so impressive. Mil gracias, tocaya.

Deep appreciation to Cina Pelayo for her kind words about The Nightmare Box and Other Stories! Just under a week until the collection comes out. Have you preordered a copy or requested one at your library?

Fascism seeks to destroy its critics, but we won't be shutting up about how much we hate it. It's an undead ideology that deserves a permanent death. Cut off the head, stake the heart, and burn the body. Follow our campaign: www.kickstarter.com/projects/cur...

Coming soon: Antifa Worlds: Antifascist Horror and Weird Fictionwww.kickstarter.com An imaginative antifascist horror and Weird fiction anthology focused on the struggle against fascism everywhere.

Every, and I do mean EVERY anthology I've read from Cursed Morsels (and I think I may have read them all) was been a winner. Strongly recommend following this campaign and CM in general.

Christi Nogle's strange, dread-inducing story about the horrors of adjunct teaching and the tech-ification of education just got reprinted in Apex Magazine! What a joy to see this story live multiple lives!

Cynthia Gómez and I worked with the brilliant Luísa Dias to design our Solidarity Forever zine. A free copy will be included with any order of The Nightmare Box and Other Stories placed through www.cursedmorselspress.com. Snag one for the fantastic stories and incredible design!

Someone bought a copy of Shredded: A Sports and Fitness Body Horror Anthology from the Cursed Morsels store today, and I'm just glad that there are still spooky jocks out there in the doomed year of 2024. Sports are horrifying, and these stories prove it!

Just one story into Michael Tichy's Wound of the West, and man, Mike has the juice. This shit is visceral, strange, existential, and REAL.

We're getting closer to revealing the cover of Briar Ripley Page's collection Lupus in Fabula--one of my favorite pieces of art I've ever commissioned for Cursed Morsels. Sadia Bies is a gem of the horror art world!

Hey, it's dark outside. Time to crack open Why Didn't You Just Leave and scare the shit out of yourself.

Any day AK Press agrees to carry copies of one of our books is a good day.

I love that No Trouble at All is still finding (and unsettling) readers over a year after its release. High praise for Nadine Aurora Tabing and Jay Rohr in this review from Allie Yohn!
