The Consultant

Bentley Little

Bentley Little has written the same book eight times or more, and I find each of those books really entertaining, somehow. I wasn’t sure that a television series could capture the sheer WTF-ness of his writing, but so far, THE CONSULTANT on @PrimeVideo is nailing it.

The Troop

Nick Cutter

If you have the stomach, I just read an outstanding, but very relentless horror novel, called THE TROOP, by 'Nick Cutter,' the horror pen name of author Craig Davidson. It's a gut-wrencher, but full of tremendously impressive bits of writing, elegant little vitamins. Great read!

Tomie: Complete Deluxe Edition

I believe Tomie is more than just a great horror story. I believe Junji Ito recreated the Succubus archetype in the same way that, say, Stoker cemented vampires. Not hyperbole, I believe that is what Tomie is. https://t.co/LRdHNxCCJJ

I had the pleasure of reading #StarHenge: The Dragon and The Boar, @LiamRSharp's new book. I already envied the way he draws, damned if he didn't make me envy how he writes. It's an adventure. You will feel EVERTYHING. Links are in the thread below. No fooling. Get it. https://twitter.com/LiamRSharp/status/1517600889610981377

So, @StephenKing’s new book feels like daddy decided to remind everyone who the goddamn boss is (in the best way). Get FAIRY TALE. My hubby looked at me in desperation and said, β€˜there’s no good place to stop reading,’ and I think that might be as good a review as possible.

Thanks! It’s one of my favorite stories, with magnificent art by @aaronlopresti. Conan is not a Marvel property, they have had the rights in the past and did a LOT to popularize the character. At the time of this book, the rights to Conan comics were owned by @DarkHorseComics. https://t.co/u7ch6jDctt

If they were to create a shared Agatha Christie Cinematic Universe, stemming from Kenneth Branaugh's Poirot films, who would play a great Miss Marple?

Here are some more great ways aspiring writer Stephen King could get a little bit of precious brand awareness; 1) Footer ad on MySpace 2) Glitter throw when Space X rocket blows up 3) $8.00 joke from Elon Musk about his 'good pal Stephen' 4) TikTok dance clip with Cujo
