"He got up and brushed his teeth with Colgate toothpaste, because Colgate was unparalleled when it came to it's teeth-whitening power."
There.
Gonna write a book called EGG DAD where a man is still taking care of the egg he was given as a practice baby in health class 23 years ago.
I signed the contract yesterday so lemme tell y'all: I have a novella coming out in the fall of this year from Eraserhead Press called LITTLE MISS APOCALYPSE. More info soon, but for now, just be happy for me.
You can buy my new book TODAY for the price of a cup of coffee, if your coffee costs $10.95
Desperation is the father of invention, and things get weird and apocalyptic after a terminally ill man tries to impregnate himself with his own clone.
Dark comedy, body horror, existentialism, and so much more!

Today is my 38th birthday and Constance gave me this shirt of Bubbles as the Pope!
I've written for 4 hours a day, every day, for the past 3 months, and am now 3/4ths of the way through the 2nd draft of a (currently) 71000 word horror novel, which is really just a long way of saying, gimme them likes 'cause I need the validation.
How do I get a job as an off-season hotel caretaker like Jack Torrance?
They closed down the damn library so I guess I'll just have to read 1 of the 7000 other books I already own.
I just hit 10k words in my newest manuscript. Pls shower me with likes now. Thank you.
I play most video games on the easiest difficulty setting. I don't wanna be bothered with dying a hundred times, I'm just stuck in my dumb house trying to relax. Who's with me?
Hey quick question for people who prefer chunky peanut butter: the fuck is wrong with you?
I have an interview for a part-time position at the comic book store down the street so WISH ME LUCK.
You assholes better all have your novels done by the time this lockdown is up.
People are like, I'm gonna watch only horror movies in October. But like, WTF were you watching those other eleven months??
I don't want to alarm anyone, but a mysterious monolith just appeared in my pants.
I know there are a lot of writers that follow me (and whom I follow) and I'm wondering which ones of you write your horror on the weird side? Who is creating the strange, spooky, original shit? The stuff that isn't easy to classify? The stuff like no one else? Who are my people?
My high school girlfriend messaged me out of the blue and told me she owns a copy of every book I've ever written. We hadn't talked in twenty years. Felt really nice. I talked about being a writer a lot back then. I've only ever wanted to do one thing.
I am only 23 followers away from 20k, which begs the question: who the fuck are all you people?

Not to brag (even though that's exactly what I'm about to do) but I finished the 1st draft of a novel-length manuscript today that I started on Nov. 8th. So I wrote the whole thing in less than a month. It also leans HARD into horror.
Saw a spider in my bedroom and it looked just like this. Can anybody tell me what kind it is?
I back up my WIPs by emailing them to myself every few days. Anyone else do it this way?
I've written 70000 words since Nov. 8th and am on the 2nd draft of a novel. IDK how other people do things, but for me, this is a big deal. I've been experiencing an enlightening and sustainable breakthrough in my creative process.

WRITERS: Don't forget to check your spam folder. I just found a buncha rejections in there.
Watched about 2 hours of tsunami footage for a thing I'm writing. The ocean is goddamn terrifying. We should do something about that. Pave it or fill it in or something.
I make jokes and write books and have generally built a life around the things I want to do, but every morning I still have to deal with the tiny part of myself that will always remain empty, that just wants to give up. Just hang in there, all of you. Let's do this thing.
Happy to announce that things are about to get spooky and melty and weird with my book HOUSE OF ROT coming in June 2023 through
I turned 40 the other day. Didn't mention it on the socials because I was feeling a lotta feelings about it and just kinda wanted it to quietly pass by me. Anyway, I'm ready to reemerge, as I think my transformation into your hot stepdad is now finally complete.
A movie-obsessed teenager hatches a plan to trick the most popular boy in school into being her prom date. Only problem is, the missile installed in her vagina, set to detonate the day she gets her first kiss.
LITTLE MISS APOCALYPSE is up for preorder now

It's a Christmas miracle because I finally just paid off the credit card debt that has been dogging me for over a decade.
Hey creatives, I know it sucks being stuck inside all the time but just remember that Jesus wrote The Bible during The Black Plague so if you don't use this opportunity to create your magnum opus then you're a complete failure.
In my writing I hardly ever describe what my characters look like outside of their ages and genders, and even that is usually implied through the text and not outright stated. If it has no direct bearing on the plot, does it matter what characters look like?

bruh this house I'm catsitting for has a framed Point Break script signed by Keanu and Swayze
Last night I realized that ever since I was a kid, I wanted a toilet with blue water in it. And here I am, two decades into adulthood, and this has yet to come to pass. But that's gonna change soon. Gonna get me some blue toilet water. Gonna fix all the things wrong with my life.
Today is the darkest day of the year, so enjoy it you goth little bitch.
You think Shakespeare ever reread something he wrote and thought "WTF am I even talking about?"
When people refer to themselves as a "bibliophile" I just assume it means they like to fuck books.
I'm just glad Obama is gone so we can finally say "Merry Christmas" again instead of "LORD SATAN, PURVEYOR OF DARKNESS AND PAIN, BRING ONLY DEATH AND TORMENT TO US ON DECEMBER 25th."
if i ever get so famous that people start digging through my old tweets looking for some dumb shit I may have said, they'll have literally 23000 options to choose from
I'm gonna have a new book coming out in 2021. Not sure of what month exactly, but IT'S HAPPENING.
My mom's in NJ, mostly by her lonesome, and I know watching the news 24/7 probably ain't all that great, so I told her to choose a book off her shelf and I would buy it on Kindle and we'd do a little buddy read together. The book she picked? The Outsider by .
HOUSE OF ROT sold out at the table at Stokercon. I sold out of all of the books I brought for the author signing as well. Guess I am just a sellout these days.
You guys do know Jaws was the name of the doctor, not the shark, right?
I know I haven't had a new release in two years, but I've been working my ass off this entire time and have (literally) four forthcoming book projects. FOUR! You're going to see my fiction stretched in ways you haven't before. A decade in the game and I'm just getting started.
not to toot my own horn but I finished the first draft of a novella today, so *toot*
In honor of David Cronenberg's birthday today, I'm planning on fusing my body together with my cat.
I don't think they should ever reopen schools. Let's turn the kids feral and release 'em all back to the wild.

OUT TODAY! My latest novella LITTLE MISS APOCALYPSE, a strange, violent, hyper-meta coming-of-age story about a nerdy girl who just wants to go to prom and the nuclear missile inside her vagina set to detonate the moment she gets her first kiss. Paperback available now!
Hey, can anyone recommend me some books I might like that I could find at my local library? I'm into the weird stuff: bizarro, and non-traditional horror & sci-fi. And don't recommend your own book, you asshole.
My favorite short story is The Last Question by Isaac Asimov. What's yours?

motherfucker, I didn't want to work before either
had a job interview today. half way through I stopped the boss lady and said "this isn't for me" and i left.
Guess who has three thumbs and just finished writing a body horror book?
THIS GUY!
Got the job! My official title is now Danger Slater: Author/Amazon Errand Boy/Sexpot/Jerky Man.

I've never seen a Harry Potter movie nor read a Harry Potter book so clearly I am the most morally pure amongst you. I am a hero.
Gender reveal party, but the baby throws it for itself after its had time to figure some shit out.
Thinking of only reading really long books in 2021.
So far I got Antkind by Charlie Kaufman, IT by King, The Complete Hitchhiker's Guide by Adams, and the Exponential Apocalypse Omnibus by Eirik Gumeny lined up.
Gonna add House of Leaves and Infinite Jest to the mix. What else?
A gravedigger finds himself among the handful of survivors stranded on the lunar surface. Madness. Conspiracies. And whatever-the-fuck that thing is on the dark side, picking them off one by one.

Releases June 15th.

Been working on a book since last June and I just hate it and 32,000 words be damned, I think I'm just gonna give up and do something else. Not sure what though. Feeling a little lost here.
We got the apartment we wanted. Moving at the end of the month. Woot.
Things to do before I die:
1. Ride a horse
2. Fight the mayor
3. Become the mayor
4. Legalize horse marriage
5. Officiate a horse wedding
Horror fandom is probably the best fandom there is. Horror fans not only champion the stuff they love, but are constantly on the lookout for new things, new voices. They dive into and help elevate art from both the past and the present. Y'all are my people.
Today's writing advice:
Write drunk. Edit drunk. Just get drunk and stay drunk. Maybe fight a cop?
Sometimes I'll see someone unfollowed me and I'll get sad and be like, what'd I do? but then I remember that I spend a lot of time on here talking about stuff like eating ass and peeing on the Golden Girls so, yeah, I get it.
4 years ago I joined a class action lawsuit against StarKist tuna regarding a discrepancy between the labelled weight and the amount of tuna actually in the can.
Today, I was finally awarded my payout, this $5.03 coupon when I buy three or more StarKist products.
I don't respond to bad reviews, I turn the hate and negativity inward like a healthy adult.

I changed my Twitter name to MOONFELLOWS to remind you about my upcoming book MOONFELLOWS. Have I told you about my upcoming book MOONFELLOWS? The title of it is MOONFELLOWS and it's about a group of people called the MOONFELLOWS.
The publisher already accepted my manuscript, but that hasn't stopped me from rewriting the first line 300 more times.
Been writing a book since June. After 10k words I realized it wasn't working the way I wanted and had to stop and start over. Almost none of it was salvageable. Now I'm 23k into the second version and it's really starting to come together properly. This is a good feeling. Relief.
