I don’t usually like short story collections. But after reading @tjoneswriter.bsky.social Arson by design and @natcassidy.bsky.social I know a place, I feel like I want to read more of these! The next one I’m reading is @rebelsam94.bsky.social Poor Things. What do you all feel about collections?

Stumbled across Heavy Oceans by @tjoneswriter.bsky.social yesterday and devoured it on the plane today. Hard recommend. It's visceral, it's poignant, and some fantastic character work. 9 stars (... form an oddly familiar constellation under the boat)

Have you ever read Tyler Jones? You really should… I’m halfway through his upcoming collection of stories ARSON BY DESIGN and the one I just finished took my breath away (it’s called “The Umpire”). There are those writers who we like to believe are just ours, a hidden treasure to covet. Tyler is one
I'm enjoying an early read of @tjoneswriter.bsky.social's collection ARSON BY DESIGN, coming 8/25/26 from @rapturepublishing.bsky.social. But there's a story called "Missing in Michigan" and... good heavens, y'all 😳 www.rapturepublishing.com/product/arso...

Crone: A Novel
A haunting, fearsome story of a father searching for his missing daughter and finding darkness—both human and not—at every turn, from the author of Coffin Moon and Fever HouseEli Lamp is a broken man. An ex-detective, ex-addict, and long-grieving father whose daughter, Hannah, disappeared a decade before, Eli decimated his old life investigating her abduction and is now indebted to the Crooked Wheel, a local drug gang, as an enforcer. He lives in a rundown trailer at the edge of the woods, where he keeps Hannah’s room in pristine condition and tries to make it through one day at a time.But when the son of the Crooked Wheel’s boss is found viciously murdered in a crime scene that doesn’t seem to add up, Eli receives a new order: Find out who the killer is and your debt to the Crooked Wheel is clear forever. You’re free. This pursuit brings him into the orbit of Avery Bryant, Hannah’s best friend and the last person to see her before she went missing. Soon, Eli and Avery are entwined in a hunt for answers that spans decades, stretches the realm of possibility, and brings churning to the surface a conspiracy linking not only these current tragedies but the buried sorrows of Eli’s past.And though none of them dare say the word witch, at least not out loud, something lurks in the woods, bent-backed and black-eyed, clawed and vengeful, looming ever closer. . . .

Happy release day to @pfracassi.bsky.social and his novel SARAFINA! I loved this book when it was a limited edition from Earthling Publications, and it’s now widely available from @clashbooks.bsky.social.
Every story is a banger in this collection. I'm talking jaw-droppingly good. @tjoneswriter.bsky.social is one of my favorite newly discovered authors in the last few years. A gifted storyteller. His books have never failed to amaze and amuse me. My highest recommendation ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #booksky

I KNOW A PLACE where you can get a little EXCLUSIVE treatment . . . It's @barnesandnoble.com! Check out this incredible news! @shortwavebooks.bsky.social and B&N are teaming up for an Exclusive Edition of my upcoming short story collection!
I try not to make promises or set expectations about what a reader will get with my stories, but I can promise this: you’ve never read anything like DAYTIDE. “Black metal Wizard of Oz” is the *starting point* for having any conception of what it’s about. @rapturepublishing.bsky.social
