Book Review: Brides in the Dark by Jacob Steven Mohr β€” HELEN WHISTBERRY Effective mix of monster romance and Gothic horror…

My latest #BookReview is for a skillful blend of Gothic horror, monster romance, and poignant and pertinent social commentary in this novella from @jacobstevenmohr.bsky.social. A fresh take on a mythological creature you don't often see explored sympathetically and impeccable dark fairy tale vibes!

Delighted to have my story β€œSevered Blessings” invited to the terrifying wedding that is THE JOINING edited by @jacobstevenmohr.bsky.social ! Inspired by a northern Thai wedding tradition and what happens when you break that sacred vow.

Wrinkled fingers tremble on the trumpet's valves. Endless summers with his boys, cheap gin and cigars. A hundred women, though he never forgot a name. Dresses twirling in the moonlight, bright as stars.

Once, he'd known the sweetness of five mambos. Perhaps before the end, he might manage a sixth.

Doing an Incredibles re-watch and I genuinely believe this movie has the best voice acting of any of the Pixar films, particularly Holly Hunter and Craig T. Nelson's performances. There are scenes in this movie (jet vs missiles especially) that WOULD NOT WORK if the voice acting was not convincing.

Cover art for the next BRAVE NEW WEIRD, by Matt Blairstone; all red and black, kinda like a cyberpunk x-ray: a human figure channels a mysterious tome bearing the Tenebrous logo. As the art shifts starkly from red to black, the flesh disappears from their bones; one skeletal arm is thrust into the air and becomes a death's head moth overlaid atop the title font.

Oh yeah, and there's a Weird future cityscape in the distance, with a tech-y pyramid looming over all. 

It's a lot, quite frankly.

Reading for a Best-of anthology, I start to see certain themes that wormed their way into the collective subconscious over the course of a year.

I'm 10% thru submissions for the next BRAVE NEW WEIRD & I can tell that y'all were a *HORNY* bunch of mofo's in 2025, in some delightfully Weird waysπŸ–€β˜ οΈ
