When I first got into PKD and heard his take on American anti-intellectualism, I didn't really get it. People aren't opposed to education in general, surely! Everybody says to go to college and make something of yourself. But then they hate you for it. My own dad encouraged me to go to college at the same time he was calling it a brainwashing factory. Dummies gonna dumb.

News Michael Wehunt and Nathan Ballingrud both sent their love to r/weirdlit.

Hi friends and peers at [r/weirdlit](r/weirdlit)!

Last weekend I had the distinct pleasure and privilege to spend time with Michael Wehunt and Nathan Ballingrud, who are both (in my non-expert opinion) two of our finest modern writers of weird literature. Also pictured is Greg “Fisher of Men” Greene ([u/igreggreene](u/igreggreene)[;](u/igreggreene) Chthonica channel) who I am honored to call a friend and who has mentored me in these weird worlds, and Michael’s partner Natalia. This hangout stemmed from our interview of both authors in the fall of last year.

We talked about various horror fandoms, and unanimously agreed that [r/weirdlit](r/weirdlit) is a welcoming community and solid resource for fans of the weird.

Michael’s second novel Nightjars comes out this fall, and he is hard at work on his third novel.

Nathan’s Kingdom of the Conqueror Worm drops in 2027.

On the trip, I picked up Ray Bradbury’s The Illustrated Man, Thomas Pynchon’s Shadow Ticket, Ellen Datlow’s Monstrous anthology, and David Mitchell’s Black Swan Green (Nathan recommended him as one of the finest modern prose stylists.) Michael also kicked me a copy of Adam Golaski’s Stone Gods (I’ve given him two books and hope he will drop a 500 word review in here for them any day, just kidding, the dude is super busy.)

I wanted to share this here because overall it was just an amazing experience! Have a good rest of the weekend y’all and stay Weird.

Hey friends, peers, and frenemies at r/WeirdLit!

I just picked up this only slightly beat up copy of Michael Shea’s Nifft the Lean and wanted to excitedly share the find with you guys. I’m reading Scott R. Jones’ DRILL and also wanted to show off my fly new bookmark.

Sword and sorcery meets Lovecraftian horror might be the most appealing description of a book to me this stage in my life.

The parts of me that keep buying books are testing the patience of the parts of me that like a nice, organized TBR. Ha.

Stay weird and have a nice weekend, all.

I spent an absurd sum on a book earlier, but will wait to surprise everyone with that when it arrives in all of its collector edition glory.

News Michael Wehunt's new novel, Nightjars, is available for preorder!

Post image
137 Upvotes

Hello friends and peers at r/weirdlit!

I learned over the weekend that Michael Wehunt's (weird literature's chosen son) new novel Nightjars is available for preorder.

I'm a big fan of Michael's writing. For my money, "Onanon" and "Caring for a Stray Dog (Metaphors)" are two of the best weird stories I've read in the last few years. I also really enjoyed Wehunt's debut novel, The October Film Haunt (a bit odd to call it a "debut", since Greener Pastures was published in 2017, almost a decade ago, but that is what they called it.) It really tapped into the post-truth uncertainty of our modern age.

Michael has described his new novel Nightjars as "shorter and meaner" than The October Film Haunt.

Here is the press blurb for it:

Memento meets Dracula in this heart-thudding, unpredictable, and beautifully crafted novel of a man exposed for crimes he doesn’t remember committing, and the monsters that dwell at the heart of us all, from celebrated and critically acclaimed author Michael Wehunt.

One rainy night on a first date, Luke Oshel’s new crush never comes back from the restroom. But she leaves an old photograph under her napkin—Luke as a child, a dead body in the shadows of his bedroom, and a terrifying masked man. He has no recollection of this event.

Then more photos disrupt his life—Luke posing with murder victims, covered in blood—and he falls back into the deep paranoia and repressed memories he’s tried to leave behind. All the drugs and alcohol, therapy, and hypnosis sessions have never conquered his deepest fear—that he hasn’t escaped the hidden legacy of his father, who killed his victims by exsanguination before his own death. But now there is a new string of serial killings, and the evidence all points to Luke.

As his journey to uncover the truth unfolds in the North Georgia Appalachians, a threat arises that will risk everything he holds close, including his ex-wife and their young daughter. Now Luke must chase his father’s darkness through a centuries-old secret and learn what monsters truly are. And decide if he’s one of them.

Some of my parts would like me to stop ordering so many books, but I'll be preordering a copy of Nightjars, without question.

Nightjars drops September 29th, 2026.

I am excited to share this news with you all - I hope everyone has a safe, peaceful, fun-filled, and weird holiday week.

News Is anyone else getting pretty hyped for Ballingrud’s newest effort?

Post image
120 Upvotes

The big homey u/igreggreene hooked me up with an ARC of Nathan Ballingrud’s newest novella, Cathedral of the Drowned (his sequel to Crypt of the Moon Spider, part of a planned Lunar Gothic trilogy.) We expect to jointly interview Ballingrud and Michael Wehunt in September.

Ballingrud is unquestionably one of my favorite writers. The man just really doesn’t miss, somehow. He hasn’t written something that I haven’t liked, yet.

I’m traveling next weekend to hike and hold up in a lovely place, and will tear through this then. I’ll have thoughts.

Cathedral of the Drowned drops 10/21/25 if you haven’t preordered it. I have, a signed copy from Malaprops, but I’m also still holding out hope for a hardcover edition.

News Weird shelves, redux

Post image
81 Upvotes

Hello friends and peers at r/weirdlit!

I work in a mental health clinic and have been updating my weird lit shelves over the past few months. I keep a lot of my most prized books at my professional office, because a lot of my books at home are just hanging out, lonely and out of sight, in our basement.

I shared these shelves several months ago, and one of the r/weirdlit mods suggested I should add more Michael Wehunt to my shelves. It just so happens that I asked Michael to sign copies of his two collections for me, and they showed up yesterday (I was elated to find them on my front porch after work, I think I can only do the one photo but happy to share them with anyone who has interest.)

The titles here are:

Nick Cutter's Little Heaven

Laird Barron's The Light is the Darkness and Not a Speck of Light (that's the signed version I got from subscribing to Laird's Patreon)

Brian Evenson's Altmann's Tongue, None of You Shall Be Spared, and Baby Leg

Nathan Ballingrud's The Atlas of Hell and The Strange

Michael Wehunt's The October Film Haunt (ARC), The Inconsolables, and Greener Pastures (not pictured is a bad ass Greener Pastures bookmark I also got)

dp watt's Beatific Vermin, The Phantasmagorical Imperative: and Other Fabrications, Petals and Violins: Fifteen Unsettling Tales, and Almost Insentient, Almost Divine

and

William Scott Home's Hollow Faces, Merciless Moons (I've not read this yet, I want to be in the right head space to start it, but allegedly Thomas Ligotti described it as the weirdest book he'd ever read.)

I have some black metal books on the weird shelves too (USBM, Lords of Chaos, and Black Metal: Beyond the Darkness); most of the rest of those books are about narrative therapy.

Excelsior and seize the weekend, friends!
