Thirteen months have passed since the events of the Lucas County Curse. Amid the bustling holiday season of 1994, Sylas Sterling faces new dangers—mysterious teens, murders, and a quest for truth. Will he survive “The Season of the Shroud?” - amzn.to/49NZjkv

@greatgideon_off I have not seen much of a difference for either.

@authorjallen For most authors, honestly no. The analytics you get aren't worth the monthly cost. There are free tools that show you the same data. What's your main goal on X — reach or sales?

I'm curious about X Premium—have any writers here tried it out? What's your experience been like? Is it worth the investment? Do you get better engagement? Does the 'Reply Boost' feature actually help? #WritingCommunity #WritersOfTwitter #XPremium

@aaronsagers Nice, I really enjoyed this series so far. It redeemed Iron Man 3 for me. I was not a fan of the twist at the time, but now I love the character Trevor.

This show is so enjoyable. It pleases me greatly to see it return.

@Adam_Cesare I’m glad I was able to write at least a couple of books before all the AI slop that is out there these days.

Al “writers” are an insult: I was writing for a decade before my writing paid one bill. To write I stole time away from other jobs, time from my family, bleary eyed and full of love for the work. The stories *are* the effort. Without the squeeze your juice isn’t even juice.

@CerealMidnight I’d like to get this, but I have already the first two seasons on Blu-ray/DVD, and I don’t want to pay anything close to $200.

WHOA.

@ToonHive @Reuters What do I get for “free” after paying a monthly subscription for like 10 years?

Adobe has agreed to a $150M settlement over claims it made subscriptions like Photoshop too difficult for customers to cancel. • They will pay a $75M civil fine • They will also pay $75M in free services for customers (via @Reuters)

@CultureCrave Boo!

Amazon is removing 4K streaming from Prime Video in April and putting it behind its ad-free tier paywall The ad-free tier is also increasing from $3 to $5 a month

@CerealMidnight It’s crazy how these keep being found occasionally.

Incredible news! The missing episodes were among hundreds of reels of film that were donated to a Leicester charity after the owner passed away. There's no telling how much previously-lost film and television history is sitting in the basements of aging or deceased collectors.

@CerealMidnight This seemed like an odd concept of a movie, but I like the stars, so I will check it out eventually.

The folks at Sony just sent over their brand new 4K Steelbook for the new #Anaconda movie. As a fan of the original, I did not care for this reboot (my review: cerealatmidnight.com/2026/01/review…), but this #steelbook really does capture the spirit of the new entry and looks good.

Early '90s mystery dread. Vote for the scariest! A) Midnight phone rings + no caller ID. B) Waiting days for photos to develop. C) Rotary dial taking forever while panic sets in. D) Other (reply) #90sNostalgia #YAMystery #IndieAuthor

Hot take: The early 90s was the end of the golden age for mysteries. No cell phones. No AI or Google. Just pay phones and fear in the dark. What's one thing from that era that made stories scarier? #90sNostalgia #YAMystery #IndieAuthor

@J_Schiecke That is awesome! Congratulations.

Spider is #9 in New Releases for Psychological Horror! 🥹🖤🕷️🤘🏻

@lhallwriter I get so many e-mails about people that want to “feature” my book, they just leave out the part where they want me to pay them.

My junk inbox is full of false promises and offers from so called marketing experts these days. Below is a post all about avoiding potential scams 👇

Tamagotchis: That tiny virtual pet "dying" if you forgot to feed it? Pure 90s guilt in pixel form. Trauma anyone #90sNostalgia #IndieAuthor

Nathan Fillion teases that a 'Firefly' announcement is coming March 15 It's widely speculated to be a reboot with the original cast (via IG | instagram.com/p/DVeaFkfEVbS/)

Getting ready to reveal new covers for my first two novels before book three arrives. Indie authors, have you ever redesigned your covers after release? Worth it? #IndieAuthor #WritingCommunity

I believe the in lots of things… like every kind of cornbread.

The ambiguous ending of The Thing is perfect because we never know who (or if anyone) is infected. It forces the viewer to sit in the paranoia with MacReady and Childs. Genius. Carpenter knew exactly what he was doing. #TheThing #MacReady #80sHorror

As a kid in the 80s, I binged tons of horror movies and most didn't faze me. But this guy? He genuinely scared me back in the day. #PoltergeistII #TheOtherSide #80sHorror
