Ivy is a fantastic writer. I recommend filling your brain with her stories.
Ivy Grimes@ivygrimes.bsky.social · 3mo agoIf you want to hear a reading of the first section of The Cellar Below the Cellar, here's a group table reading I did with Christi Nogle, Sasha Brown, and TJ Price as hosted by PL McMillan. From the night of release. www.youtube.com/watch?v=taqR...
I haven’t been on here much lately but for all great reasons. @sobelobooks.bsky.social has a ton of outstanding releases scheduled starting in July so I’m an editing and project managing machine right now. My bookstore, Spineless Reads, is getting busy for the summer rush. And I’m writing two books!
Next up: Look at all of these beauties together 😍 Thank you, @lcmarino.bsky.social. Pickles says hello 👋🏼❤️

I refuse to write forced words. I’m thrilled when I’m pulled along, a passenger documenting my observations of these characters. The words come at a wonderful pace, the story manifests naturally. Get in the flow, stay in the flow.
@stephellis.bsky.social is a wonderful editor and proofreader. Highly recommended!
Stephanie Ellis@stephellis.bsky.social · last yr.Hi, I'm Steph, writer of dark stuff (with a new sideline of cosy 😅). I now have the time to, in theory, write full time, but that is not a huge income. To bolster my finances, I do occasional formatting, proof-reading, and editing. #HorrorWritersChat
Long road trips = massive audiobook progress. Prepare yourself, Goodreads! 🤓

Ed Crocker@edcrockerbooks.bsky.social · last yr.📕🤡 New Review! 🤡📕 Death of a Clown by @catherinemccarthy.bsky.social "It’s impossible not to be deeply moved by the journey of self-discovery of Chester Brown the conflicted clown. McCarthy’s foray into dark fantasy has only reinforced her label as a rising star of British speculative fiction."
This guy. This press. I’m awfully fond of them. And I’m exceptionally proud of what we’ve accomplished this year. We’re on a mission. Thanks for every moment of collaboration, @lphernandez.bsky.social .
L.P. Hernandez@lphernandez.bsky.social · last yr.June of last year, No Gods Only Chaos was on the sinking DarkLit ship, its second sinking ship. I had a thought but knew I couldn't do it alone. @lcmarino.bsky.social was the first and only person I thought of. We talked about taking over DarkLit but quickly pivoted. 1/
