Hi hey my new book comes out on Jan 20, and she's real pretty, and there's a giveaway of ten of these shiny sprayed hardcovers on GR, otherwise you can ask your local bookstore for one and that would mean the world to me!

Belated congratulations, Alex!

"When the world goes dark in 1980s Romania, Rosi is trapped on the truck she uses as a smuggling vessel along with the driver, Gigi, her arranged-marriage fiancé. The mood of the novel perfectly matches the grim and oppressive descriptions of this newly changed world. As cosmic horrors erupt around them, Rosi gathers the other survivors together to make their way to a hoped-for safety, led only by the radio signals they pick up. Woodroe’s writing is tight and clean, emphasizing the desperation and also the real fear that people would experience in this apocalyptic setting. The novel skillfully mixes celestial terror and off-the-wall weirdness while making good use of tweaked and twisted science, the Communist Romania setting, and believable characters. The ending hopefully paves the way for a sequel. VERDICT: Woodroe (Whisperwood) offers a haunting and propulsive treat in this survival horror story, whose read-alikes include The Mist and The Langoliers, both by Stephen King, and God’s Junk Drawer by Peter Clines."

I might need to be pinched because I can't quite believe this Library Journal review is really real and really mine

❤️❤️❤️❤️😅 Who over there needs an alibi? I'm great in a crisis and you were with me all day that day I swear

During the first week of October, @spicycloaca.bsky.social and I are running an open sub call for the zine that will accompany their book Gore Poetics. 500 words max on the theme FLESH. Pay is 10 cents/word. Samir's book is weird, erotic, and often transgressive vibewise, so keep that in mind.

We’re going to be closing to submissions from 12pm BST tomorrow (12th September). Not sure exactly how long for, until we get caught up. If you want to get something in, send it in before then.
