I finally got my books in! Sorry for the delay to everyone who ordered directly from me—they’ll be shipping out Friday!

Shameless birthday post! I have now reached age 35! How the fuck did that happen??? If you feel like supporting me in any way today, I just had my first collection, PORTRAITS OF DECAY, released a couple days ago. FFO: Evenson, Ligotti, Jackson, Barron, Files.

Carson's work is always fantastic, but when distilled down into the concentrated form of the short story, his themes hit all the harder. There is true heartache, terror, and dread lurking in these stories, and I can't wait for the world to experience it all.

@ErikMcHatton is one of my favorite writers and his debut collection is coming out later this year (all you Ligottians: this is a priority). Thanks to Erik for this blurb, but also for being a constant source of kindness and inspiration in my writing journey.

A wonderful review from @TheFantasyHive for PORTRAITS OF DECAY By @CarsonWinter3

Thanks to RSL for this stunning review of PORTRAITS OF DECAY! fantasy-hive.co.uk/2025/06/portra…

@CarsonWinter3 delivers horror pulp with class conscious in A Spectre is Haunting Greentree from @TenebrousPress This felt like the lovechild of Rosemary's Baby and Children of the Corn with a hefty dose of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark mixed in. Quick, with a sharp bite!

Friday morning, hanging with the Harried Man. If you're in the US, you can pre-order PORTRAITS OF DECAY and receive your very own Harried Man to confuse and unsettle you on October nights. carsonwinter.com/product/portra…

So honored to have had the opportunity to read @CarsonWinter3's debut collection. It's fantastic. Go get it folks!

Caleb Stephens is one of my favorite writers in the scene today. His horror tugs at the heart (then eats it raw), his thrillers pop with energy and intrigue. PORTRAITS OF DECAY is out June 16. Grab your copy here: saltheartpress.com/portraits-of-d…

A new review for PORTRAITS OF DECAY is in! Thank you to Rebecca!

Thank you to Ivy Grimes for the kind words on PORTRAITS OF DECAY. Ivy is one of my favorite authors of the weird and I can't lie, having anyone say that I have an "encyclopedic knowledge of horror history" makes the 13 yo in me ecstatic.
