Richard Thomas

Thanks, brother!

Right on.

I have room for maybe ONE more novel-in-a-year author. If you've always wanted to write a book, especially if you've already mastered the short story form, let's do this together! All genres are welcome. One of my students just found a publisher. I can help! storyvilleonline.com/novel-worksh...

Cover reveal. Includes my story, "Kuebiko."

Love it.

Cover reveal for THE BEST HORROR OF THE YEAR, which includes my story, "Sunk." Out later this year.

Lol right? Thank you so much.

Sorry, out later this year, not next year. LOL I hardly know what year it is. My bad.

I'm thrilled to announce that my story, "Sunk" will be in the Best Horror of the Year, Volume #17, out next year. Thank you to @datlow.bsky.social @marissavu.bsky.social and Dark Matter for your support. Full TOC (in great company) below. Congratulations to everyone that got in.

Thanks! I have a few spots left in this class, running Sept-Dec this year. It's the only time I'm teaching it in 2025. If you are beyond the basics, but are still looking to improve, this is the creative writing class for you. storyvilleonline.com/contemporary...

Just a friendly reminded that if you enjoyed my arctic horror novel, Incarnate, which The New York Times called "a must-read for fans of strange, surreal horror" please put up kind words and generous stars on Amazon and/or Goodreads. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Love that story. Your writing over the last couple of years has really been a great influence on my work. "Dancing Sober in the Dust" and "On the Hills, the Knitters" are just brilliant.

And One Day We Will Die Order — PATRICK BARB

It's release day for this amazing Neutral Milk Hotel-inspired anthology. My story, "Naomi Ascends" is in here—a puritanical witch story with a twist ending. Pick up your copy today. Congratulations, @patrickbarb.bsky.social patrickbarb.com/and-one-day-...

My pleasure. Inspiring work. I write dark fiction as well and thought it was very original, and visceral. When he lowered the filters (both times) it was shocking. Intense.

Hey @thomasha.bsky.social I'll be teaching your story, "The Window Boy" in my workshops this year. What a powerful, creepy, unsettling story. Loved it. The final imagery will haunt me for a long time. Congratulations, excellent work.

Awesome

Honored to be on here. Great list.

Thanks!!!
