Behold, the cover of BURIED IN BATHWATER, a collaborative text by these two knuckleheads who happen to be two of the most exception writers of today. Coming later this year if god willing I can claw it together.

For those who may have missed it, I have put out two books in the last six months: SARA and Black Hole Science SARA is a novel in fragments about a girl, her dog in an impossible dream world. Black Hole Science is a collection of short material from 2012-2025. Get both at never.horse/books.html

A hand holding a copy of Black Hole Science is Filled with Apologies. The feet have orange monster claws. Book cover has mother and daughter in bedroom, daughter pointing at a giant floating snake and a star outside the window. on the curtain it says the title and NEVER ANGELINE NORTHBeautiful cat with a copy of SARA or 'I lived my life as a cloud that followed overhead' by Never Angeline North. Cover is yellow and red and has a pear covered in bees on the front.

Literally who do these people know that get them splashy coverage without publishing a single book? It does make sense that Lithub would be into a press with a colophon that looks like an ai company, has a "ceo", and thinks the Warped Tour was a music scene.

"The chickens are organizing a game. It appears to be a putt putt tournament, or something like it. A hybrid of poker and minigolf. At this point, I realize my plan has backfired." from "From the Pocket of Agent Dickinson" by Zack Darcee and Elise Houcek clereviewofbooks.com/from-from-th...

My wires reach her brain. It is a brain of Nothingness. In there go the dictionaries.

I keep wanting to take a photo of myself and the book with fake blood everywhere but keep putting it off. As such I forgot to note that this episode is out. It eased a ton of my anxieties about talking about work like this. John is a legend.

I got to talk with everyone's favorite independent literature podcaster again, now almost a year out from the release of MASSIVE, we talked about Joe's insights and the general response to the book. www.noisemakerjoe.com/wtr/2025/11/...
