Saw a terrific horror film called THE RULE OF JENNY PEN. I had some thoughts and wrote them down. May have coined a new phrase in the process.

Dear Republicans,

Pick a lane. At least be consistent in your transphobia.

My debut poetry collection, DEMO REELS AND ARTHOUSE MADNESS, releases today.

On this book "birthday," I am filled with gratitude for all those who had a hand in bringing this collection to fruitionβ€”but no one more so than the entire team at @rdspress.bsky.social.

Have you ever wondered why it's always a RED carpet? Today we're celebrating the release of @vinceliaguno.bsky.social's debut poetry collection DEMO REELS & ARTHOUSE MADNESS. It's a collision between film and poetry that makes a red carpet totally practical.

Queer Horror Anthologies Make History From time to time, I’ve been known to share an opinion or two.Β  Stop laughing. I’ll wait. Those opinions usually come from something I feel ...

This year's Bram Stoker Award nominations for @sofiaajram.bsky.social and @cloudbusterrob.bsky.social and their queer horror anthologies are historic.

I should knowβ€”I've been bitching about it for years. Find out more in my latest blog entry.

This year marks my 20th year since my first paid professional publication. This is my third Bram Stoker Awards nomination. That this comes for (literally) the most personal thing I've ever written...?

Well, there are no words. Only major gratitude. πŸ’™
