Gothic — CandiKat Horror Anyone who writes anything for any reason has experienced the dead stare of a blank page at some point, and some of my favorite fiction has explored that feeling. Though comparisons to Stephen King w...

#Gothic by @pfracassi.bsky.social exemplifies what I like about his writing - smart and full of self-referential humor, gruesome imagery, and engaging (if not always likeable) characters and a thrilling plot. #BookSky ARC from #NetGalley and @clashbooks.bsky.social for my unbiased review:

joe koch isn't just one of the finest writers of weird and transgressive literature working, today, but truly is one of the best to ever do it.
if you ain't reading joe koch, are you even really reading?

Early Christmas Hanukkah plz 🥰🙏

Just keeping y’all updated: I’m currently working on the second draft of my novella for @clashbooks.bsky.social and the first draft of my novella for @crystallake.bsky.social. I also have a bunch of short stories in various stages of development. Hope things are well with you and yours. ❤️

Me to my distributor: by getting all those returns we are actually selling books.

You too!

The sales conference went well even though I’m now basically dead! The Spring/Summer 2026 season is so good, love all these books so much 🥰

I know it’s not true or even possible but I always feel like “Jessie’s Girl,” “Is She Really Going Out with Him,” and “Somebody’s Baby” are all written about the same person.
