And I always think about the "And is it true that you have Die Bart Die tattooed on your chest?"
"It's German for The Bart, The"
"Nobody who speaks German could be evil!"

Hankering for something spooky for the Halloween season? Look no further! Check out “Bad Moon on the Rise: An Anthology of the Unsettling”. My story “Fast Food” will whet your appetite along with many more!

Truly a gift from a genius (RIP Sir Terry!)

I finished listening to Carpe Jugulum by Terry Pratchett today and cannot recommend it enough. Definitely some of the strongest writing in Discworld I've read, which is truly saying something. A hilarious take on vampire narratives, and the witches are better than ever before. Adored it.

Silent Hill f is whispering its siren song for me to buy it, and I'm very, very tempted to give in, even though I know perfectly well that I'm not going to play it until after I'm done with Borderlands 4, Silent Hill 2 remake, and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

Pre-order your copy of Dread Mondays! Our story slaps and I highly enjoyed writing with my Scream Kings cohost!

Nathaniel J.Darkish @njdarkish.bsky.social · 17d

A friendly reminder to pre-order Dread Mondays to read the twisted little short story that @drspookyer.bsky.social and I wrote featuring video rentals and disturbing found footage!
