People imagine picking up and finding *something better* is an easy solution. But how is that supposed to work, when all your time and energy goes to staying alive? You have almost nothing to set aside to actually fight your way out.

Next to an image of the book cover, text reads "From Cat Voleur, twenty essays about the messy, the problematic, the fabulous," then the book title.

It remains awesome that you use your platform to do this. We recently opened preorders on Cat Voleur's "Queer Tastes: Unconventional Representation in Horror Films."

For your weekend reading - my new story about a small town civil servant just trying to find her neighbor’s dog … while an eldritch abomination floats like a mountain of diseased flesh in the sky and its shadow poisons the land. Fun! www.nightmare-magazine.com/fiction/will...

Thanks, Alex! I always appreciate your support.

READ THIS. Such a huge fan of this story.

This is great. Reminded me strongly of Ben Winters' Last Policeman trilogy, which I loved. The same pervasive sense of a principled or disciplined despair that somehow becomes a sustaining integrity, a flashlight - for what it's worth - in the void. Hideous creatures and lovely sentences too!

A friend of mine described the Last Policeman to me recently and it sounds great! Definitely right up my alley, as you can probably tell. I’ll have to put it in the TBR pile.

I will say that I very much appreciate your taste in books and have picked up a number of ones that I really enjoyed after seeing you post about them.

Somewhere between two and infinity of them, I’m guessing.

NIGHTGOWN

A cold so keen,
My speech unfurls tonight 
As from the chattering teeth 
Of a sewing machine.

Whom words appear to warm, 
Dear heart, wear mine. Come forth 
Wound in their flimsy white
And give it form.

NIGHTGOWN A cold so keen, My speech unfurls tonight As from the chattering teeth Of a sewing machine. Whom words appear to warm, Dear heart, wear mine. Come forth Wound in their flimsy white And give it form.

Blanquitos Fiction by Karlo Yeager RodrΓ­guez.

Helluva day to remind you it's the last day for Nebula nominations. If you're still choosing, please consider my short, "Blanquitos" in the short story category
