Cover for Counterpoint Press issue of THIN PLACES. Art by Stephen Mackey shows a veiled figure in white gown at a window.
Women in Horror Month continues. In 2020 we published @kaychronister.bsky.social 's remarkable THIN PLACES. When our rights expired, Counterpoint Press reissued it with 4 bonus stories. I urge you all—if you haven't—to pick up a copy of these beguiling and bewitching tales. Kay's work is amazing.

Some very welcome new reading material courtesy of @undertow.bsky.social.
Anyway HAPPY FRIDAY I paid a bunch of bills (yay!) and I would like you, YES YOU, to read about resistance far from the battlefield, about malicious compliance, sabotage, personal devils, bone-gallows, death, Death (in her beautiful gown), and anger.

Happy Women in Horror Month! I urge you to read books by women not only this month, but every month. Let's celebrate and spotlight the many incredibly gifted authors that grace our libraries and bookstores, and shelves. (I've read the top two, here, and am reading the other two.) What you got? WiHM
You're very welcome, Michael. What a great line-up! Although that pretty much goes without saying these days as far as Weird Horror is concerned.
To summarise, I've received the latest publications from @roadsongbooks.bsky.social, @undertow.bsky.social and @remainsmagazine.bsky.social all on the same day.
It's almost too much to be honest!
Last, but never least, Remains 4 from the mighty @remainsmagazine.bsky.social
Anything that Andy Cox produces is a thing of beauty, and this is no exception.
Also received today this slice of absolute gorgeousness from the brilliant @undertow.bsky.social
