We had a hiccup with the original cover image, meaning we couldn’t get the rights to it, but my buddy and fellow local artist Tony Nicholas came through with this badass photo he took in a local abandoned factory. Sometimes plan B is the far superior choice. Stoked as fuck 😎

Still a few tweaks to make, but this badboy’s coming along. September…

Cheers, Wayne. I’m still kicking. Just taking time away from social media for a while. I appreciate you thinking of me. Hope you’re well, my friend.

Thanks, Meagan. You’re a gem 😎🖤

These are all on my desk right now because I'm teaching 2 different short story classes this fall, and we're studying them. Highly recommend.

Books make me happy, so I'm going to bury you, for the next 25 days, with books you need to read, and *ahem* gift, in pairs or groups that I think go nicely together. Today, we have PICKARD COUNTY ATLAS & UNDONE VALLEY rich with place, these are crime novels, but so much more.

Something strange appeared on my doorstep the other day. But these are pre-one-last-formatting fix. The new ones should be here in a couple days for those I’ve promised copies to. Till then, hats off to @SouthernmostQu1—these are real pretty 😎

I often wonder how much we make depends on small random things. If it rained today. If a finch sang. If decades ago, our lover suddenly knocked, and their blue raincoat slumped to the floor. Perhaps this life is stitched with chance, and art is our astonished applause?


So this is the part in the movie where we discover our 5 yo has been inhabited by some sort of demon, yes?
