Truth from Brian Keene's newsletter today: "...the hard work doesn't stop. Each book and story sale should be celebrated. Each literary award and fan interaction and glowing review and celebrity endorsement and bestseller placement is a cause for joy. But the next day, you HAVE to get back to it."

The cover of THE BUTCHER OF THE FOREST by Premee Mohamed on a dark green background with floral motifs. In golden plaques, we see: LitHub, BookRiot, Washington Post, Polygon, and NPR Best Books of 2024; Amazon Editors' Choice Science Fiction & Fantasy; Aurora, Ignyte, Nebula, Locus, World Fantasy, and Hugo finalist. A small plaque also suggests you just buy the stupid book, everybody seems to be enjoying it, you can see for yourself right here, seriously. This is the LAST DAMN UPDATE I swear to God.

I mean, really, I'm ALWAYS talking about Bigfoot . . .

anyway, ready for my embroidered smoking jacket. which I'll probably just drink a Pepsi Slurpee in, ideally through a bright green straw. but there's no rule that you HAVE to smoke in a smoking jacket, is there?
