Contract signed! Very happy to announce that my short story "Fairy Tale Man" will be published in Chthonic Matter Quarterly next year! It's been miasmic writing-wise of late, so this acceptance is a restorative breath of fresh air.
Hullo! Is that an acceptance? My, my, so it is, what! Dashed good thing, really.

The new CAPE FEAR really feels like a @gabino.bsky.social book!
That time I ran into @joerlansdale.bsky.social and he purchased a copy of STOKER AWARD WINNER SILK & SINEW!
SILK & SINEW won the Bram Stoker Award!!!!! I am so proud of @garnetonwinter.bsky.social and delighted for her huge victory. Amazing to think my story is in such a collection.
Second novel is stripteasing. Ideas and images revealing fast and free.
SILK & SINEW also nominated for Shirley Jackson!!!
Hell yeah! So honored to be a small part of this INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED anthology! All props to @garnetonwinter.bsky.social, @badhandbooks.bsky.social, and the other breathtaking authors! SILK & SINEWWWWWWW!

Matt Bell@mdbell79.bsky.social · 3mo agoI’m so thrilled to share the news that my new novel PENITENT will be published by @doubledaybooks.bsky.social, with Thomas Gebremedhin editing! Thanks as always to my agent Kirby Kim for his wise advice and for finding my book its best possible home. Coming Spring 2028! I can't wait.
There's really nothing quite like being possessed by an idea.
Today marks the 111th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. 1.5 million of us were lost, including my grandparents' grandparents. It's a weird day for me—I mourn, I feel the weight, yet I rejoice, and try to live a little harder. We dance atop the unburied dead as they clap along in eternal time.
Gorgeous! Brought to mind a short story I wrote years ago, based on Armenian werewolf lore called FLESH & FUR. mosspuppymag.com/issue-4-caged/
