With 45MPH wind gusts, I’ve set up for trick or treat inside rather than at the end of our walk. #Halloween #trickortreat 🎃👻🎃

Finally had time to write a tribute on my blog to my wonderful friend Joe Knedlhans, owner and curator of the Toy Robot Museum in Adamstown, PA. Joe died on October 10, 2025. #toyrobots #sciencefiction

The cover for the horror fantasy novel THE CHANGE (depicting a jacketed figure slinging a guitar scrawled with "This Machine Kills Zombies") is overlaid on a green wood background. Text reads as follows: "Zombies Faith Rock & Roll On Sale Now Oddity Prodigy Productions"
With Halloween drawing near, quick reminder that we released the horror fantasy THE CHANGE (the debut novel of @shoutingstreet.bsky.social) earlier this year! If you're looking for a new read, check out this tale of zombies, faith and rock & roll. Available at Bookshop.org and the official OPP shop!

Excited to announce that my 34th short story, "Where Halloween Never Ends" will be published tomorrow in Issue #216 of Black Cat Weekly!
One of the many things I love about BCW are the gorgeous interior illustrations. The one for my story is stunning.

This puts into words something I wondered about -- whether the current AI madness would ever have a return on investment. And, it turns out, not only will it not, but it is likely to crash the economy when investors realize they've been hoodwinked and there's nothing of real value to extract.
