I've made a pact with @paperbackbish.bsky.social to attend Telluride Horror Show in 2026...

I don’t understand why em dashes are getting so much hate. And the Oxford comma??? You can pry these punctuation marks from my cold, dead hands.

The kindle version is up for preorder, but I recommend waiting a little while and checking with your local indie about preordering the paperback. Maybe a signed one from @boulderbookstore.bsky.social? 👀

Do you love flash fiction? Wanna dip your toe in? It’s honestly maybe my favorite story format!

AND LOOK WHAT WE’RE GETTING ON DEC 9TH!!

This one has been out of print for ages, and we’re even getting 10 brand new stories in this edition from Open Road! 🤩 Mark your calendars @sgj.bsky.social

It’s my fave!!! Plus I agree, Michael Crouch is an excellent narrator.

Lorin Elise @paperbackbish.bsky.social · 5d
