Chuck and Clay

Me with Michal!

Me with Chuck!

Had an excellent time with @inkasrain.bsky.social at @twistedspinebooks.bsky.social’s Conversation With @chuckwendig.bsky.social And @claymcleod.bsky.social in celebration of the paperback version of Wendig’s The Staircase In The Woods!

(whew that’s a lot of with’s, at’s, of’s, and @‘s)

Got to converse with Chuck Wendig at The Twisted Spine tonight in celebration of the paperback edition of THE STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS. Always inspiring to hear him talk about his work. Lo and behold artist Francois Vaillancourt was there as well, an The Twisted Spine has copies of KILL YOUR DARLING

The cat’s outta the bag: I’ll be conversing with filmmaker Mick Garris at this year’s Salem Horror Fest. I’ve been dying to go for years now, so this is a special treat. Rue Morgue’s got the scoop right here: bit.ly/3N2BnEv

In accordance with the Bram Stoker Award rules & etiquette, I'd like to introduce 2 finalists on this year's ballot:

Superior Achievement in a Fiction Collection: ACQUIRED TASTE
Superior Achievement in a Young Adult Novel: SHINY HAPPY PEOPLE

If you’re an HWA voting member DM me for a copy!

hope to see you tonight

Never too late to buy a half dozen more

Holy hell, David Scott Hay, Hailey Piper, AND Eric LaRocca? Why did I not already buy this?

Sung in the vein of the Birthday Song: "Aaaand maaaany more!"

I'm "many more," and mostly I'm just super honored about it because of David's very kind words in approaching me, his obvious love of the work.

I read PSYCHIC SANTA for the first time to celebrate the release of the FEAST anthology, edited by David Scott Hay, alongside contributors Alex Gonzalez and Anna Dickson James. How cool is it to be in an anthology alongside Tananarive Due, Eric LaRocca, Hailey Piper, and so many more. Available now!

Thanks so much to the Brooklyn Public Library for bringing me into Fort Hamilton High School today. I also want to help spread the word about the BPL’s Teen Writing Contest & Ned Vizzini Writing Prize, open to all middle and high school students in NYC. A contest like this one got me started.

Where are we going on our third date? Tune in Wednesday, March 18th at 5 PM/ET to find out, only on IG Live. I’ll be announcing winners for the DEVIL INSIDE ARC giveaway. There’s still time to write your love letters to/from your personal demons!

Question of the Day: Is it genius or is it brainworms?

see you tonight

Fbq holding a kindle with the cover of the book, Wake up and open your eyes by Clay McLeod Chapman. Cover shows a family sitting at a dinner table with their faces replaced with static.

New read and all I can say is WTF 😅

First past had me for a loop already. Interested to see what happens.

Wake up and open your eyes by Clay McLeod Chapman

whoa

Reading Damien Ober’s VOIDVERSE in preparation for next week’s book launch at P&T Knitwear and it’s so damn wild. You should totally come, if you’re free.

sexytime

I sold a good amount of these this weekend at Author Con, but I still have some remaining on the online store!

Clay is the perfect model for this, obviously. #babealert

Thank you Spineless Reads for making this spooky family look so spooky gooooood.

Lindy Ryan, editor and queen of creepiness, has put together a whole new batch of urban legends to spook you silly. Do you know how cool it is to be in a collection alongside (deeeeep inhale) all of these amazing authors? Vury vury cool.
