Continue reading →: When It Rains
So much has happened in the last couple of days that I’m having trouble keeping it straight, so my lovely wife suggested that it might be wise for me to post a quick summary of it here so everyone following along at home could keep up. Or at least so I’d…

Richard Gavin is one of my favorite contemporary writers of the supernatural, and I’m also lucky enough to consider him a friend. (Whether he feels the same is a mystery.) I also happen to know that he shares my love of a good Vincent Price movie (is there any other…

Silvia Moreno-Garcia runs Innsmouth Free Press, where she’s co-edited several anthologies including Historical Lovecraft and Candle in the Attic Window, and where she puts up with me on a regular basis. She’s also a very talented writer in her own right, and her story “Flash Frame” was recently reprinted in The Book…

Okay, I admit, I have dropped the ball on this whole Countdown to Halloween thing. But I’m going to make it up to you. Starting on Monday, the 24th, and running every single day through Halloween, I’m going to be hosting a special feature here. I’ve approached a bunch of…

Continue reading →: All Hallow’s Read
I said earlier that I had originally hoped to post a book recommendation a day for the entire month of October. Part of the impetus for this was to have something to do for the Countdown to Halloween, but part of it was also Neil Gaiman’s All Hallow’s Read. The…

This Saturday, I’m going to be a guest at the Longview Literary Festival on the Longview campus of the Metropolitan Community College. That’s in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, for those of you who’re in the Kansas City metro area and might want to stop by. It doesn’t look like the official schedule…

Continue reading →: October Country
So, it’s been October for four days now. Like last year, I’m participating in the Countdown to Halloween, and I had originally planned to post a book suggestion a day for the entire month. Obviously, that’s not going to happen. I’ve been busier than anticipated, and it doesn’t really look…

Continue reading →: Fungus of Terror
For years (since at least 2007) I’ve wanted to edit an anthology of dark fungus stories. I love fungus monsters, from William Hope Hodgson’s “Voice in the Night” to Matango to various comic books and video games to the “moldy corpse” enemies from Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. Fungus monsters are (some…

Continue reading →: Important Collection Update
My first short story collection is coming out sometime early next year from Evileye Books! For most of you reading this, that’s probably not news, though the “early next year” part might be. The fact is there’s still not a date set in stone, but we’re shooting for March. The…

Continue reading →: Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark
Here’s the thing: There’s no way that Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark could have been as good as I hoped it would be. I sort of hoped it would be the best movie ever. I mean, the haunted house genre might be my favorite genre, and you know what’s…
