Reporting live from "war ravaged Portland" where (checks notes) a collective of non-profits that help at-risk youth just turned an abandoned building into a community space and celebrated with free food, an open mic, and an excellent multi-cultural hip hop show.

A.i. generated schematic of a submersible. Replete with typos, even to the point of the same part having different spellings on different views. There is also a part labeled "Emergency baby".
Emergency baby.

Do yourself a favor and pick up Coffin Moon by @keithrosson.bsky.social. While you're at it, grab Fever House and The Devil By Name. Lean, vicious neo-noir horror at its best. Plus he's another Portland degen, you gotta support your Portland degens.

It’s cover reveal day for I Will Kill Your Imaginary Friend for $200! A book about nostalgia, grief, digital brainrot, the loneliness epidemic, and the boundless, breathless power of a child’s imagination, but mostly about beating puppets to death with your bare fists. linktr.ee/killyourimag...

B&N Bridgeport all set up for the event this Saturday with @wnwagner.bsky.social and I!
Also, hanging out on the J shelf with @sgj.bsky.social, @rossjefferyauthor.bsky.social, @pnwscribe.bsky.social, and @jrjisprobable.bsky.social.
It's very probable that the lift out of anhedonia was actually correlated with a neurochemical shift, but one time I was able to "feel" books again by binge reading a bunch of Ellroy and Burroughs.
I hope there's a lift for you soon.
Entropy In Bloom by Jeremy Robert Johnson. Roses bloom from the eye sockets of a skull
In A Lonely Place by Karl Edward Wagner. stick figures, ala blair witch, hang in trees near a desolate looking cabin in the woods
Polyphemus by Michael Shea. Colourful type amid bloody scissors, tendrils and a staring eyeball.

it's me, a guy with a beard and glasses, holding a copy of scarewaves: beyond the grave. there's a shelf full of books behind him
Scarewaves: Beyond The Grave, the second book in the middle grade Scarewaves book series, is out today!
If you read it, I really hope you enjoy it! It’s slimy and full of monsters, the exact kind of thing I would have loved at that age.
Available at most major book retailers!

Holy hell. NYT raves don’t get any better:
“A thunderous gallop of a war novel, a new classic, a best-in-class example of speculative fiction. Mysterious and full of grace, rambling and ducking and shifting for 285 dizzying, blood-soaked, astonishing pages.”
