SO THIRSTY is out NOW! My hope for this book is that it finds whoever needs it. I needed it, and I’m eternally grateful to share it with you 🖤 May you always be brave enough to go after what you want, and drink up the sweetness til the last precious drop🩸

Something massive is coming in July.

I’ll be in Pennsylvania tomorrow at Brownsville Screams. I’ll be signing books and reading an excerpt, most likely from MARLA. I hope to see you there!

My Shirley Jackson Award-winning collection, FOLK SONGS FOR TRAUMA SURGEONS, is available on Kindle for less than three smackers today! I love the hell out of this book, and would be thriiiiilled if you gave it a shot!

For you audiobook readers.

Wicked new review of the about-to-release FEAR OF CLOWNS anthology, which includes my story “The Drolls.”

Brownsville Screams was AWESOME! Huge thanks to the awesome Paul Synuria II for treating us so well. Here I am pictured with author Sheldon Higdon, who's a really good guy.

Book your trip to St. Louis, friends. This is going to be special.

Writers, control what you can control. Sure, there are several elements out of your hands, but you can keep writing and you can keep treating people with respect.

My son (college freshman/baseball player) called me yesterday like he often does, but our voices started to get echoey. Just when I started to wonder what was happening with my phone, I looked up, and there he was in the room with me. Surprise visits are the best!

THE LONELIEST PLACE is out today. All my gratitude to the brilliant team of humans who helped take a story that lived in my head about a scared-but-brave girl and turn it into three books. All my love to the readers who've joined Evie on her journey. My heart is full today. 🖤

How to Tell If Someone Is a Horror Fan: If they say they are. How to Tell If Someone Isn't a Horror Fan: You don't. It's none of your business and not for you to say, especially if you're a misogynist trying to edgelord a woman.

Amazing news.

So freaking amped to have a story in the new FEAR OF CLOWNS anthology. It's available now, and you won't regret picking it up. Just look at that list of authors! amazon.com/Fear-Clowns-Ho…

LESS than a week till Johnny Compton ‘a sophomore DEVILS KILL DEVILS comes out from Nightfire Books ! Grab you a copy before they sell out! #HorrorNovel

Stephen King is just a person with flaws and fears like the rest of us. And that's why I'm so grateful to him for working so hard and for constantly returning to that place of magic in his imagination to give us stories that make our lives brighter. Happy Birthday, Stephen King!

We still want a Stephen King/Mike Flanagan DARK TOWER series.

My review of Josh Malerman 🚪INCIDENTS AROUND THE HOUSE out now’s Incidents Around the House, from Del Rey Books, is now up at Locus Magazine. locusmag.com/2024/09/gabino…

So the current prices on my out-of-print demonic possession books EXORCIST ROAD and EXORCIST FALLS make me think it’s time for a publisher to release new, revised editions that don’t cost four figures.

He's known for standing up for what's right and helping others, but I also appreciate Brian Keene for his constant friendship, his deep love for his family and friends, and his extraordinary writing. Happy Birthday, my brother. Now go buy his books! amazon.com/stores/Brian-K…
