Bram Stoker Award!

For My Heart is a Chainsaw! Could not be cooler. Couldn’t be more surprised. The ballot was so, so tough this time around. Will put a snap of the house here, when I have that little house (that time is now). Bram Stoker Award winners (or, @Tor.com) (or file 770) (or Library Journal)

Reaper ARCs

Sortakinda slipping out into the world, maybe starting here (Edelweiss) . . . And here’s who I heard it from:

Goodreads Nominee!

My Heart is a Chainsaw, swimming upstream. Which I guess is mixing metaphors. “Hitting it out of the park,” then? No, no. Um. “Firing on all cylinders?” “Making waves?” “Bringing home the bacon?” I would say “Leveling the competition,” as a way to, you know, be pretend-clearcutting a stand of timber, except . . .

Best of 2021 so far: for October

October was so, so, so busy with events &etc, much etc, that . . . I either wasn’t jotting stuff down for this, or I wasn’t watching a lot. I was reading a lot, but most of it doesn’t have covers yet . . .

Best-sellerdom

Making the LA Times list: And I hear Chainsaw‘s an Indie Bestseller, too — the slasher lives. The slasher can’t die.

Fangoria!

Could there by anything cooler than being in Fango again? Answer: yes. Being in the WEREWOLF issue of Fangoria! And getting to talk about slashers! Cool My Heart is a Chainsaw review in there, too!

World Fantasy 2020!

Which, for me, is mostly Friday, with one panel Sunday. Full schedule here (just search “Graham” on the page) (I mean, if you’re looking for my stuff) (but, really, go to EVERYTHING . . . ).

Cool mannequiny lists to be on:

My COVID Story

Which is the title of this series of interviews / this project, I believe. Happy to have helped the students at Watershed here in Boulder:

Oh, the fun you’ve have (online)

Which is to say: every step you take is into a rabbit hole. 2001 says “It’s full of stars,” but that’s not actually the future we’ve arrived at. It’s more: “It’s full of rabbit holes.” This is one, for me—the happiest one ever:

New Tell-All Interview!

Well, not even super sure what ‘tell-all’ exactly means. But I wanted to use an exclamation point, because this one was fun:

December Nightmare

Always cool to be in Nightmare’s TOC. Even cooler when it’s with people I know (Gemma, Carrie—only know Adam by reading):
