TFW you're proofreading a book and you have to go get another cup of tea instead because it's so sad and lovely that it's making you cry.
(looking at you, @deadinkbooks.bsky.social)

If you want to buy a gift for a writer, this collection is a steal and a trove. You may end up beta-reading their uncanny scifi magical murder mystery in six months' time, but wouldn't that be fun?
(From @deadinkbooks.bsky.social - many other 50% off deals.)

My final #BookReview of the year is one from my backlist...the beautiful, weird and terrific Monstrilio by Gerardo Sámano Córdova from @deadinkbooks.bsky.social
Here's what I thought 👇

My hand holding a copy of "A Beast Slinks Towards Beijing" by Alice Evelyn Yang. The cover is a somewhat psychedelic image of a rabbit among flowers.
What a treat to come home to.
Thank you, @deadinkbooks.bsky.social!
Back cover of Unquiet Guests: ‘A house is more than just a place to lay your head at night. Sometimes the walls remember. Gathering 10 modern masters of the strange and the unsettling Unquiet Ghosts sets fire to the blueprints and reimagines the haunted house from the foundations up …’
Unquiet Guests - hardcover edition ed Dan Coxon
Just read the first story from this anthology from @deadinkbooks.bsky.social. Love @dancoxon.bsky.social’s intro - was inspired to jot some ideas down for first time in months.
Then there’s I am the House by @gradyhendrix.bsky.social
Woah! 👏👏👏
Can’t wait to read the rest …
For those in the UK, just wanted to put on your radar that @deadinkbooks.bsky.social is republishing Randall Keenan’s first novel, A Visitation of Spirits, as part of their Outside Classics series and yours truly has written the introduction. Pre-order your copy today!

New Review - a brilliant short story collection showing there is still a lot to do with the idea of the haunted house. I strongly recommend Unquiet Guests edited by Dan Coxon out now with stunning stories to unsettle - officially out next week go get it! www.runalongtheshelves.net/blog/2025/10...

Monstrilio, by Gerardo Sámano Córdova, is a wonderfully weird book which follows the lives of our central characters Magos, Lena, Joseph and M. This monstrous yet loving novel discusses themes of grief, sadness, identity and sexuality, to name a few1/5
@samanito.bsky.social @deadinkbooks.bsky.social

A stack of books making up all the physical, well, books that my writing has been in since 2020. All The White Spaces, Where The Dead Wait, the best of Three Crows vol 2, It Calls From The Doors, The Earth Bleeds at Night, Darkness Beckons, FOUND: an anthology of found footage horror, Something Peculiar, Jamie Hallow and the End of the World, Cloisterfox zine, London Weird, Boreal: an anthology of Taiga Horror, and Unquiet Guests.
With the addition of UNQUIET GUESTS (out 30th Oct from @deadinkbooks.bsky.social ed. @dancoxon.bsky.social) I have finally outgrown my brag shelf and now have a... brag stack, WTAF??
2020 - early October 2025.
Always great to see Water Shall Refuse Them getting some love!

When a mysterious illness strips them of their memories, a group of strangers must re-learn how to navigate the world. 'The Definitions' is a hauntingly prescient tale of oppression, the policing of language, and human connection! 📚🍂

Wouldst thou step across the threshold, and dwell where walls do whisper and shadows keep their counsel?
These pages do not comfort. Ten voices, dark and diabolical, do bid thee enter… and once thou art inside, thou shalt not depart unchanged.

excuse the dog-earedness, but never has the phrase 'well-loved' been more apt. I was sent a gratis copy of this by the fantastic team at @deadinkbooks.bsky.social and it's easily in my books of the year (perhaps no. 1!)
thank you, Jordan Prosser, for this 'timely' work- hilarious and heartfelt.
