Rather than reissuing ANOTHER omnibus edition of Clive Barker's Books of Blood, how about reissuing the original 6 volumes honouring Clives glorious artwork and format? Maybe add a limited edition box to store them in 🤔

The 'art' for the recent reissue is appalling.

Three weeks of IV antibiotics can really screw your stomach up.

Who knew?

Well, after three hours of crippling pain, I most certainly do. No idea why the hospital failed to tell me this when they discharged me.

It has dissipated now and I'm feeling oddly euphoric.

My word this is good.

I desperately want to see Nick Cave in a intimate venue perform a full on, balls out, heavy set. It really is a bucket list wish.

One day I'll get to see Sir Nick.

2026...

Full Adam Nevill bibliography reread and review

Read John Connolly's 'Charlie Parker' books.

Make a huge dent in the KR TBR of Doom.

Good morning! Today is the publication day of the 1927 occult novel POSSESSED by Rosalie and Edward Synton, discovered by me and reprinted by the British Library for their Tales of the Weird line.

There now follows a thread about the authors. If you buy a copy, use the hashtag #SYNTONSPOSSESSED

I wish GoodReads would update in real time based on the Amazon database.

It's so annoying to have the incorrect cover art, page count, ISBN etc.

POSSESSED - my major discovery for the British Library, written by Rosalie and Edward Synton (Corse-Scott) comes out this week (4th)! Includes an essay from yours truly and photos of the authors (courtesy of the Corse-Scott family who I finally tracked down a few weeks before the book went to print)

This year I've published 28 lost tales by Oscar Cook, presented a new 'lost' author called Bernard C. Blake and the BL have published my major 'lost' occult discovery. It's been quite the year.

I'm still on the lookout for scary/unsettling books.

Two authors that have managed to get in my head to the point I'm checking the shadows are Andrew Michael Hurley and Adam Nevill.

Pease post any recommendations below and I'll pick up a couple.

Just had my PICC line removed. Markers have dropped significantly so no more IV antibiotics. 🥳

I still need my leg dressing changed every three days as its looking rather 'meaty' but at least the infection has taken a battering.

I'm exhausted both mentally/physically but I'm on the right path.

On this Black (Phillip) Friday, I'll have three goat-defaced copies of my book Tales Accursed and three gilded goat lino prints available in the shop from 12:00. In addition, for today only my Unholy Bond goaty print is reduced in price to Ten Pounds, imagine..!

A week to go before POSSESSED is published! Of all the books I've ever been a part of, I'm strangely very nervous about this one - being responsible for finding a lost novel and having the BL pick it up and publish it is rather stressful! What if people hate it and a million other insane thoughts.

The joys of being awake at 3am.

A mixture of pain, uncomfortable dressings and a reaction to meds are slowly driving me insane.

I can't get no sleep.
