It’s #FridayReads time! Let’s share books and boost all signals. Almost done with the novel, so I’m thinking/hoping/dreaming about my next contract. Know what helps? Selling books! Seriously. Anyway, it’s almost half off! Go ahead, share what you love.

Can't beat free reading material but this one alao happens to be mot excellent!
Ah, Bad Bunny left you with questions about power outages, storms, and our hatred of colonialism? Don’t worry, I got you. I’ll show you the aftermath of a storm, take you to the beach, show you what hides under the waves. I’ll show you our magia…

Not sure if you're aware but the digital version is no longer available on the Canadian version of the zon, only the paperback
Unfortunately bookshop is a bit fussy for me but I got a copy on the zon. I hope your surgery goes well 💚
Last night I finished reading this book, after months of reading a page here and there. It's my second physical book finish of the year, sounds like I'm actually doing the whole back to physical media thing!
Done!
Let's see if BlueSky #booksky is better at recommendations than booksta! Weird, liminal, 80s/90s vibes, horror, or very niche nonfiction prefered 🙏🏻

Read for a while if you can. Watch something. Eat tacos. Turn that music up. Text a friend. Check in with your forever demons. Drink from the skull of your enemies. Take care of yourself. Can’t fight the good fight if you burn out.
Today for Latine Heritage Month, the little book that could! Launched barrio noir (¿Y ahora, cabrones?) and my career (and years later again in France). My first translation, first film option, etc. I’m STOKED it’s back in print!

Cross stitch mock up of a ghost with the like it's me and my Halloween trinkets against the world.
Mock up of a cross stitch featuring geese and the phrase Gone E-Wording
3/3 Made the trinkets one for a tag yourself post on my IG and the other one is a personal project (geese unrelated to the reference and I'm curious if anyone gets the reference or if it's too niche?) let me know if there's interest for the patterns!
2/3 Made these cross stitch mock ups for a tag yourself post on my IG but I also have the PDF patterns, let me know if there's interest!
1/3 Made these cross stitch mock ups for a tag yourself post on my IG but I also have the PDF patterns, let me know if there's interest!
It probably would have if Fool Me Please hadn't been before it. I saw too much of myself and of my worst nightmare in that story!
It’s #FridayReads time AND Latine Heritage Month! Repost this and let us know what to repost for you. Here are horror and noir mixed with Spanglish, history, anti-colonialism, magic, friendship, revenge, and monsters from the deep.

Last Saturday, a story from this collection WRECKED me and I still haven't recovered from it!
It really is!
A line from Mad Days by @elfordalley.bsky.social 😂
Campus Reform tried to get me fired from being a *postdoc in physics* in 2015 because I said Thomas Jefferson was a rapist
Cover of the book ash and bone: tales of terror by Elford Alley featuring half of a blue sketch of a skull on a solid black background
Finished Find Us (loved it), onto the next. @elfordalley.bsky.social September is going swimmingly (you shouldn't have suggested it if you didn't want to hear about it 😂😂) 🩸📚
It's the little things that make me fall in love with a book 🩸📚
