When people ask me what's my favorite of the books I've written, I answer END OF THE ROAD. If you've never read it, I wish you would. Amazon has the paperback on sale for $13, which is way lower than normal. amzn.to/45UvyxV

I think part of our work as horror writers in 2024 is to help people unlock the parts of themselves that can face terror and adversity without losing their humanity & goodness. We are entering an era of fear and horror like our species has never faced. We need heart.

Everyone should order @sgj.bsky.social's AFTER THE PEOPLE LIGHTS HAVE GONE OFF, if only for the final tale, "Solve for X," the unforgettable story of a mother and daughter reunited over theoretical mathematics. You will not be unmoved.🌈❤️🤗 bookshop.org/p/books/afte...

The @lairdbarron.bsky.social Read-Along comes to the pivotal passage of Old Leech lore with The Croning, chapter 8: "Mystery Mountain Stomp"! Don Miller fights for his life while facing a 3-body problem all his own. Plus: help us classify all the Croning monsters! new.reddit.com/r/LairdBarro...

Any media journalists looking to write something up on the Sony acquisition of the Drafthouse would be wise to read Tom Rothman's recent interview on the state of the industry. He has some pretty strong opinions on the need to decrease the price of exhibition to get customers back in seats.

I got a little too excited about an upcoming book release by Stephen Graham Jones and was kindly asked to remove the cover image. 😅 But trust me, @sgj.bsky.social readers have an opportunity this December to experience one of his best books that's been out of print for years. Keep your eyes peeled!

I now want Ari Aster to adapt Ligotti. Telling Aster that consciousness was a mistake of evolution will open up completely new hells of cinematic dread and anxiety that the film will give the audience whole new, undiscovered mental illnesses.

Also, completely unsurprised that Ligotti had a hand in the scariest moment put to film.

In my recent chat with @kellylink.bsky.social, we talk about @lairdbarron.bsky.social & the late great Peter Straub. I'm new to Straub (shame on me!) so Kelly recommended "The Juniper Tree" and "Mr. Clubb and Mr. Cuff," both stories in Straub's collection INTERIOR DARKNESS. youtu.be/bFWgGEx-GfI?...
