“The world is full of Maple Streets.” I’ve been thinking about this episode a lot these days.

That book is a trip. Enjoy!

It’s starting to look like a very vintage Halloween over here!

Easily the best intro to any movie hosted on #TheLastDriveIn! I’m going to need that on a loop! nicely done @therealjoebob123.bsky.social! @darcythemailgirl.bsky.social @shudder.com @themutantfam.bsky.social

Since it is the first day of October AND Witchy Wednesday, I thought we could try something different and fun - a look at the Halloween reading lists for the Sanderson Sisters! Which reading list do you like? Does it match up with your favorite sister?

“Listen! the wind is rising,
and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings,
now for October eves!”
- Humbert Wolfe

Happy October Eve!

The deadline for proposals and artwork is tomorrow! See the rest of the thread and the linked site for more details.

Halloween sweaters have been brought up from the crypt. Nevermind that it’s still basically 90+ degrees in Oklahoma. Happy October Eve!

When visiting a new town, it’s always polite to stop by and greet the locals.

Dear publishers:

Hello! Wanted to say I’m a little tired of dark academia novels set in Ivy League schools and would love to edit an anthology of dark academia set in universities across the world, in local community colleges, and online. I have a PhD and everything! Let’s talk.

Viking to publish new Penguin Horror series this Halloween

ICYMI: Viking will publish a new five-book series this Halloween, featuring literary horror writing of the 20th century 👇 #BookSky

I am so proud of the work we do at OUP. To be part of this legacy in my home state, growing up surrounded by University of Oklahoma Press spines, it's truly hard to put into words the amount of pride and respect I have for our books and my colleagues. #ReadOn

Currently Watching: Dressing Up Halloween: The Story of Ben Cooper, Inc. (2024).

September 1st, where Minimalist Monday meets a Mass Market Horror Paperbacks Flatlay.

Our house is currently full of boxes and I’m decorating for autumn! Who else is decorating today?

A little @fangoria.bsky.social Friday 💚

Can we make #CelestialSunday more of a thing?

I keep telling y'all, we're doing some awesome work at OU Press. I'm so proud to work here! And three cheers for Wilson's closing lines - "Long may university presses thrive: large, medium, small, the whole caboodle! Buy a university press book this week."

It’s honestly the only way I can FIND them most of the time these days! “I think that book was over here next to that other one because it was summer and I had to move those blue printed jackets further from the window so they don’t get sun washed and I picked them up and took them….”here”?!”

Just going to give up the ghost that my work bookshelf is organized in any way, shape, or form beyond “vibes”.
