Finally had the chance to visit Noir Dark Spirits for dinner. The atmosphere was quite amazing and its not every day I have my dinner served with a cleaver.

Happy belated birthday @TotalZackWard. Hope your day was awesome.

@baconetti Thank you 😁

@GothProf Terrific essay 😃

There is a chapter in here about witches, and werewolves in Catherine Crowe's literature by yours truly. So proud to be part of this fantastic collection. Congratulations to the editors and contributors!

Co-editor book-mail. Big shoutout to my partner in Lunar-gothic-crime Elana Gomel, and a huge welldone to all the contributors for their terrific essays. 😃

@baconetti Looks fantastic. 😍

Danny Trejo hugging the Swedish Chef has to be the best thing I've seen in a long time 🤗

So thrilled, I was able to meet one of my favorites at The Last Toy Store last weekend. Both @choptopmoseley and William Forsythe were lovely, friendly people. They were definitely worth the three hour drive!

I loathe the final stage editing process, especially when word removal is needed...it feels like murder.

Have you sent in a proposal for Monster Fest yet? eventscalendar.smu.ca/smuhalifax/det…

I'm appalled. I'm now receiving unsolicited AI generated "reviews" about my varied published works from such supposed academic sites as Academia.edu. Why is this being promoted? When are they going to realize that AI is slowly destroying creativity & critical thought?

@baconetti I love the cover 😍

Ooohhh….super exciting. We finally have a cover for “Uncanny Doubles: Doppelgängers, Twins, CLones and the Gothic”….not too much longer before we’re on proofs and hopefully out before the end of the year! 😃
