A digital illustration in the style of a block print. A humanoid figure wearing a red cloak stands next to a long, segmented creature that resembles a carrot. The creature’s body weaves in-and-out of dark bushes.

A digital illustration in the style of old print. It displays three plants in various states of transformation. All are growing vague animal-like bodies: one birdlike, one serpentine, and the other humanoid.

Digital illustration in the style of old print. A large two-headed beast with dark fur emerges from a cave. It lifts its heads to make eye contact with a redheaded child sitting above the cave’s entrance.

A digital illustration in the style of a woodcut. It depicts the upper half of humanoid figure whose “head” is a flattened organic shape. A serpentine creature delicately wraps around the figure’s arm and into an opening in their face. The figure handles the creature gently.

Watercolor and ink sketch of a live band wearing button down shirts. This was sketched during their set in the dark. It is quick, dirty, and how I like to paint musicians.

1,000 followers. Thank you.

I am a traditional painter. I work with models weekly. I sketch a lot, especially when listening to live music. Horror & witchcraft are a part of my life.

Nudes, musicians, and ghosts aren't for everyone. I am flabbergasted to find people who like my work.

i dunno we got a dictator deploying national guard on a whim, i don't really mind if you read old sff or new sff or whatever the industry debate is today, whatever expands your mind and makes you critical and active is great, at this point if you're picking up a book at all i am fucking relieved

Screengrab from undertowpublications.com showing 2 books for pre-order: THE BEST WEIRD FICTION OF THE YEAR, VOL. 1, and UNCERTAIN SONS.

see i assumed the typo was figure skate, and i prefer to imagine you doing that to avoid hearing your own voice

Banner says book launch Thomas Ha in conversation with Brian Evenson Uncertain Sons and Other Stories

Hey! I'm doing a small Uncertain Sons event at North Fig Bookshop next month. Brian Evenson will be there, which is wild and very nice of him! I think there will be tacos. Maybe we'll talk about Wolfe and weird horror. If you live in LA stop by. Will be chill and mainly my cousins. 9/20, 7 pm.

if i finally get to a steady point in writing career and/or mental health where i don't need to be on social media, i hope one of you knocks on my bluesky profile door and smiles to yourself like ben affleck at the end of good will hunting when i don't answer

shitty little sentence that makes no sense but i just like the sound of it

oh that's a relief because i am committed to the answer at this point, did you know they record those things

tortie, sleepy, eyes barely open, arms folded under like she is displeased

daria, staring, arms crossed

we call this her daria face

A delicate story about what we need from myths and legends--about the parasocial nature between reality and unreality. One of Fogg's finest yet!

my costco self is not my best self

i was on a horror podcast and said that even though wolfe is often labeled as sci-fi/spec fic, there's usually enough disturbing going on in a deeper more ambiguous layer that he's closer to weird in my book. either that was right or bullshit. either you would've been proud or shaking your head

Sickening. Every journalist in America should think deeply about the fact that most American politicians are willing to accept and indeed facilitate the murder of our colleagues.

We can't wait to share it with everyone. In the meantime, yinz need to buy Box Cutters and pre-order Feast of the Pale Leviathan! #horrorsky #booksky
