You may know him as Nick Cutter, the mind behind horror classics like THE TROOP and THE DEEP, and the under-read but absolutely deserving LITTLE HEAVEN https://t.co/DO9itdWMi9

three years ago Nick Cutter & I started writing a short story about an eerie DIY home improvement YouTube channel. This story eventually became THE HANDYMAN METHOD - a novel about algorithmic possession & self-destruction. Now we're giving away copies on the demon site itself. https://t.co/6EoUgCXQHZ

our friend @reid_iain is no longer a Canadian secret. You've read I'm Thinking of Ending Things, Foe, and We Spread. You've seen his work adapted into film. You know he will continue to surprise us. Iain was one of the first people to read the ARC and I am very grateful. https://t.co/2ijFpc86Pq

we circle back to Kevin Barry, the second entry on my list and second to last here at the end. NIGHT BOAT TO TANGIER illustrates Barry's capacity to weave the surreal into the mundane, reminding his reader a story is not just built from what happened to who - but how it is told. https://t.co/PyffgzVkB1

A bit further out, Nick Cutter and I tackle the modern haunted house, following in the footsteps of the greats like Anne Rivers Siddons THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR, Robert Marasco's BURNT OFFERINGS, and Richard Matheson's HELL HOUSE with a little bit of Adult Swim https://t.co/lU72vZDyAg

Don’t have a copy on hand because, like City of Bohane, this is one I keep giving away. The Factory by Hiroko Oyamada is a haunting novella about the self being subsumed into the job, the grind of daily labour taking and taking until the worker becomes a single minor function. https://t.co/nFHw1K2n3y

we are still watching The Marigold spread across North America, thriving in times of waste and plenty. #TheMarigoldGrows means getting yourself some great books like PONTYPOOL and art made by my friends for this polyphonic novel about what happens when you build over the dead. https://t.co/jh64aNcN1M

Eka Kurniawan's BEAUTY IS A WOUND coils surrealism and satire around a brutal depiction of colonialism and chaos following independence, viciously alive and charmingly aloof at times. I finished it off in a sitting - a stack of tragedies held together by pitch black humour. https://t.co/Thi7ZljRul
