If you've ever read my 2022 #HorrorNovel HELL SPRING (and made it past the first chapter), you'll understand why I immediately snagged this old calendar page at The Great Junk Hunt event in Nashville today. #Marilyn #MarilynMonroe #1954

Curious about the novel? Visit my site via the link in my bio.

Just read a couple Jennifer Thorne books back to back. I really like her writing style. She does amazing dialog and interpersonal conflict.

Lute was especially great. So good that I immediately decided to see what else she'd written.

Diavola got off to a fantastic start, but petered out a bit after the midpoint. Still worth a read, but I personally connected with Lute more.

Travelling companions on the train to dad today: Philip Fracassi's quite excellent The Autumn Springs Retirement Home Massacre, and some Dave Brubeck on the headphones.

There was a brownie too, but it has been munched already.

If you are looking for feminist horror novels, book blogger Willow has some interesting recommendations. I have read "Natural Beauty" by Ling Ling Huang and I can recommend it too.

I started reading "Silver Nitrate", a horror novel by Silvia Moreno-Garcia, set in Mexico City in den 1990s.
I got curious about it when a bookblogger recommended it.

"The trees shook from the downpour as thunder cracked the sky. Streaks of lightning shot across the clouds like veins of the gods. A wolf howled within the woods. Its soaked fur sent drops of water all about as it set its legs into motion. The wolf dashed around the trees until it came to a small patch of earth that seemed to have been dug up and covered over recently. The soft soil was muddied from the downpour.
The wolf stood on a rock over the brown patch and began to growl. It scraped at the rock with its claws as it bared its teeth, its eyes alight with fury. A pale hand reached out of the ground."

Won't be around socials much for the rest of the day, so I'm leaving with this.

I started reading "Home Before Dark" by Riley Sager yesterday, a Haunted House novel and so far, I am enjoying it (blurb in the picture).
You might argue it's not really the season for scary stories, but I am a goth and I like my horror and ghost stories and such all year long. 👻

I love that image I generated by AI. It made me wonder how good were those times in century XIX. I got so many new ideas for my future book, thanks to that image.
I wanna find more. Again, I loved it.

Past midnight now...
And in my writing mode. I have so many images in my mind to convert them in words to place on the book I wanna publish in a near future. Hope I make it in God's will.

And nothing better to make my night great with a dose of Goth Rock music, while I think about my favorite character in my future horror story.
