James Chambers

The Night Land is really amazing. Not the easiest read, though.

Thanks for reading WTSOW and sharing your insights into these two stories!

Nice to meet you too, LindaAnn! It's great having you join us.

I'm excited to announce the first round of contributors to my new anthology, WHERE THE SILENT ONES WATCH with stories by Peter Rawlik & Sal Ciano and Sam Rebelein (@rebelsam94.bsky.social) and a poem by Linda D. Addison (@nytebird45.bsky.social). Coming soon from Hippocampus Press!

Saw this caption on a Reddit photo: "The James Webb telescope took this wide view photo of Uranus featuring six of its 27 moons" and decided not to read the comments. I stand by my choice.

This freaking "winter" weather. It has been like 50F on Long Island with constant overcast and the humidity equivalent of walking through someone else's cold sweat for the last week. Finally, today, sunshine! But I'd still like it a little cooler too. LOL!😜

Just opened my favorite kind of Word doc--a blank page. New story imminent. 😃

This was a great time! Thanks, Amy! Congrats on A SHADOW OF YOUR FORMER SELF!

More spooky stuff!

Not sure what @mlabbott.bsky.social, Christa Carmen, and @mothman13.bsky.social are reading, but I'm reading "The Last Halloween" from OCTOBER SCREAMS.

Thursday October 12th at 8pm ET on the Galactic Terrors YouTube channel at tinyurl.com/y4gj654q and on Facebook live.

Sasha Graham is hosting the official NYC launch of A SHADOW OF YOUR FORMER SELF at Ghost Stories by the fire on Tuesday, October 24 – 7:30 – 9pm EDT with @mothman13.bsky.social, M. M. De Voe, Olena Jennings, and Christopher Ryan. Eventbrite: tinyurl.com/48rnxmja Facebook: tinyurl.com/yb2n6ud7

The Horror crew from October Ghosts at Tiny Raccoon Books this evening. Ghost stories, creepy dolls, heart houses, and monsters! Good times. Thanks to all the folks who joined us!

Oooh! From the director of SUICIDE SQUAD! You go, girl!

My tree decorated itself for Halloween. Candy corn, anyone? This is about three feet long, and it wasn't there yesterday. Cue spooky music! #halloween #fungus

Thanks to @alpbeck.bsky.social for this series of vintage reads posts for @hwany.bsky.social! THE OTHER by Thomas Tryon is a masterpiece of dark lit. Beautiful prose, psychological twists, some of the darkest scenes I've ever read. Belongs in the top 10 of 20th century horror classics.

Writer's life Upside: Reading a friend's great novel before it's published. :) Downside: Years passing before a terrific publisher buys it. :( Upside: Excitement and happiness that the rest of the world will now read your friend's awesome novel! :) Can't tag the author just yet...

...and out of stock! Wow, the Deluxe Signed Lettered Edition of A BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL ETERNAL WORLD appears to have sold out. Thank you so much if you preordered a copy! This means the Numbered Signed Edition will be up for preorder soon, I do believe.

Thanks so much, Alp! You're the best.

Caught MULHOLLAND DRIVE at a local arts cinema this week. 35mm projection of a scratchy print probably 20 years old. 45 minutes in the film broke, and the projectionist screened the last reel out of focus. Somehow this only made it all the more "Lynchian" and enjoyable.
