Re-introduction time! I'm Tyler Battaglia (any/he/iel), a queer and disabled author of horror, horror romance, and dark fantasy. My debut novel, PRAY FOR HIM, about a closeted priest and his possessed best friend, came out on October 1 (cover, below, by Jaria Rambaran!)

🌈📚 #horrorwriter
The cover of PRAY FOR HIM by Tyler Battaglia. It shows a priest with his hands spread out against a backdrop of an outline of a stained glass window. His chest is opened to expose his ribs. Out of his ribs grow purple, red, and white flowers, and in the cavity of his chest is a bleeding and flaming sacred heart. The entire image is black and white, except for the flowers, flaming heart, and blood.

Both Flori and I are still sick. We need to pick up either more safe food that's easy to make or order something we don't have to cook because of the Covid+Disabled+Heat Wave combo. +Bills/Rent

A digital oil painting of Sam Lake from Yötön Yö. He is a fair-skinned man with short hair drinking from a small bottle of clear liquor set against a dark background. A slightly stylized digital oil painting of an OC from Art Fight. He is a tired looking man with glasses and a lit clove cigarette held in hand near his face a thoughtful, troubled expression. He is set against a red background and lighting. A digital oil painting of Mr Door from Alan Wake 2. He has his glasses off and looks at the viewer with a mysterious, intense gaze. A digital oil painting of Xena and Gabrielle from Xena. They are shown dancing together in an intimate fashion, with Gabrielle cradling Xena's chin upon the knuckles of her elegantly posed hand, palm facing downward and fingers relaxed. Their eyes are both closed as they focus on the feeling of each other in this moment.
