My latest essay is an exercise in observation and critique, regarding my recent pilgrimage to Rochester, Minnesota, birthplace of Mayo Clinic, to catch a concert by Bob Dylan & his Band. tylorjames.wordpress.com/2026/04/02/rou…

"Engage your audience". Engage? I'd rather disassemble or rearrange. Your? What is mine but a few brief years? There's nothing to own, save a few precious things within a cranium fence. Audience? I sing for crickets, ghosts, churchyards. I'm applauded by the sound of my footsteps

It's later than you think.

The clavier goes out of tune only when one ceases to play it---dust and rot are agents of neglect, and cannot take hold of hands speedily flying on.

"STRANGE INVITATIONS" is a collection of 18 stories, 7 poems, and an introduction by Josh Hames (owner of St. Paul's Weird Fiction bookstore paradise, OTHER SKIES). All these tales serve as invitations to the Sublime & Beautifully Macabre. The Book: amazon.com/Strange-Invita…

Happy Birthday to legendary English weird-fiction, cosmic horror, and sci-fi pioneer William Hope Hodgson, born November 15, 1877. He authored the novels The Night Land and The House on the Borderland, along with numerous shorter weird tales. What is your favorite Hodgson story?

I tried my hand at writing local history, and have found this endeavor most rewarding. Upon discovering an asylum cemetery in the middle of a cornfield, I soon grew obsessed, researched a great deal, and wrote the following essay: tylorjames.wordpress.com/2025/07/24/cou…

@SomeOkieDude Very much appreciate your sharing this, Sir.

My friend @Creaturekillswe put out a song recently about a stick on the ground. Give it a look. youtube.com/watch?v=0WpBeC…

"Great minds think alike." Isn't it rather more accurate to say, "Unoriginal minds think alike"?

@MaryRoblesPoet It certainly does! If I lived close, I'd visit it all the time.

At St. John's Churchyard, which, for a time, was a regular haunt of Edgar A. Poe and Sarah Helen Whitman. Out of all the spectacular cemeteries I had the good fortune of visiting in Providence, I believe this was my favorite. It is a secluded, atmospheric gem of a churchyard.

@MaryRoblesPoet Congrats, Mary!! This is stellar news, indeed.
