17.07.2025 12:08 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I was on Reddit today, going through the book recommendations.
It's quite fun.
I don't recommend my own. I recommend other authors instead. And I know for a fact that one Bluesky author just maybe got a sale.
Or got new eyes on their work anyway. I'm happy.
Hey hey! I'm Michael, I write queer cosmic and supernatural horror.
Just one??? It's a tough call, but I think my answer is Nadja from What We Do in the Shadows. Sure, it's comedy, but she is also absolutely happy to kill. I like vamps to have a monster and a human side.

Great job hosting #HorrorWritersChat, Mary. A few days ago, I posted a story for the #ShadowBoxArchives involving an eldritch horror and an old lady driving. It's paywalled now, but it becomes free on Sunday, link below. If anyone wants to read it before then, you have to become at least a 5$ tier.

The next Graveside Press anthology releases next month. Theme: cryptids!

Sometimes when I feel stuck with a piece it can help to get into a discussion about it with friendsβI truly love my friendsβ brainsβ. When thatβs not an option just sitting down with a book, a videogame or whatever it is that caters to my weekly obsessions will do the trick:)
Thanks for running the chat this week, @marywyrd.bsky.social!
My latest dystopian culinary grief novel, WHERE THE SOUL GOES, is having its cover reveal and pre-order announcement at 6 PM EST/3PM PST. Influenced by Anthony Bourdain, Simon Stalenhag, and Hunter S. Thompson!

Engaging with any and all art forms, really. Movies, music, games, books, visual art, people watching at IRL work, eavesdropping in public convos (shhh lmao).
I struggle a lot with taking breaks to replenish, despite knowing it's a must to prevent burnout and lack of "flow".

Well, #HorrorWritersChat, since I mentioned it earlier. Here's The Blood We Choose

Thank you @marywyrd.bsky.social!
The horror anthology I'm in is the number 1 new release on Amazon for the last couple of weeks--it would be awesome if some of the incredibly talented folks on this chat have a chance to check it out! Great meeting everyone!
