Friends, I'm trying to get the word out about One of Us. Please share.
Around midnight last night (as is appropo) I started @goresorcerer.bsky.social's Decrepit Ritual and it is everything it promises and more. I'm around halfway through and it's a gonzo, gory, surreal tribute to splatter cinema that's instantly hooked me for the rest of their ouvre.
Attention all authors and publishers! Please stop advertising your sick-ass wares! I WILL make a purchase and my TBR pile is insane right now! #booksky @ghoulish.bsky.social @clashbooks.bsky.social
read this yesterday, what a strange fun thing. a hallucinatory narrative part drug trip, part horror film pastiche, part metafiction. if, like me, you've ever marathoned low-budget obscure horror films while high and sleep-deprived to cope with severe depression, this book will hit the spot.
"...a gore-soaked howl captured on decaying VHS, the cursed tape from The Ring by way of a psychedelic gut-stomping SOV horror flick. It'll cave your skull in." —Trevor Henderson get DECREPIT RITUAL through the ghoulish webstore: ghoulish.rip/product/decr... @goresorcerer.bsky.social
This is how I found out that 17 years after my first nomination, my writing actually won a Shirley Jackson. Thanks @johnlangan.bsky.social. Thank you to the jurors. Thank you to my publisher @ghoulish.bsky.social. This is wild, lol.
