New book release! Available now! A Dark Whimsy is a contemporary dark fantasy tale of horror and magical realism set in the forest.  Tagline: Sometimes you should just stay out of the woods.  Please check it out! a.co/d/aOwxTLh

If you want to check out my work, I recommend starting with my initial releases, Obsession or Pact. If you enjoy these, you might love the rest! 🍷🩸🧛 daniellornhorror.co.uk/gallery

@writerjcurtis I suspect those people are dead inside

@glawackus Saw it in theaters and laughed a ton. Was surprised to see that most people hated it!

I’m not kidding when I tell you that the new Anaconda movie is really entertaining. Super funny. You don’t believe me, but that’s okay.

@paulgzareith I think An Infernal Bugbear stuck pretty close to the style of Entangled Dragon, but it’s hard to judge.

@glawackus I was surprised how different it was from Entangled Dragon.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What a book! Dark, twisted, hilarious! Haunting dreams of a bunny were not in my 2026 plans.

@paulgzareith The writing is evolving, I suppose.

@CoyHallBooks Congratulations!!

Received the promotion from associate professor to professor! Effective July 1.

FYI: I've updated my "Speculative-Fiction Showcase" over at Bookshop(dot)org with some of my recent reads that are available there: bookshop.org/lists/michael-… If you're not familiar with it, Bookshop is a great way to buy online while supporting local bookstores.

Best movie quote ever? Thanks for asking. It’s perhaps this: “Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.”

Spider is out now! 🕷️ Available in paperback, hardcover, ebook, and Kindle Unlimited. “You’ll feel every itch, every skitter, and every buzz” @DaveBuzan “A unique skin-crawling horror experience” @lhallwriter Link below 🔗

@starkterror88 I wish I’d had the foresight to take an image before we loaded it up. But alas

@glawackus now we need to see a shelfie

I assembled a much-needed new bookcase this weekend. Thank you for your applause.

@ElfordAlley Sounds like something the Scooby gang would be looking for.

Mystery tape! Now I gotta find a vcr…

@TheTripp21 Great choice! Haven’t seen that in many years but loved it as a kid.

Watching 👀 Saturday the 14th

Zootopia 2 is very entertaining, with plenty of fun nods to other movies. Such as The Shining.

Look at this thing! Stoked to have a story in here with so many amazing authors/friends. Edited by Michel Bailey and Chuck Palahniuk for Saga. Cover by Sam Dunn.

Had a few days with good sales and then six days in a row with complete crickets. Funny how these things work.

It’s #FridayReads time! Let’s share books and boost all signals. I’m sharing this because every copy counts and helps me sell the next one! A Caribbean nightmare filled with monsters, friendship, santería, and murder. (45% off!) amazon.com/gp/aw/d/031642… bookshop.org/p/books/house-…
