🪲🪞 WRETCH by @eric_larocca is a devastating, haunting, queer body horror masterpiece, the nightmare incarnation of Billie Holiday's "Gloomy Sunday." The cancer of the soul is as insidious as the cancer of the flesh. Love well while you can. 5/5 💀 @SagaPressBooks

'Las cosas han empeorado desde la última vez que hablamos', de @dilatandomentes y @eric_larocca nos trae un terror psicológico, sutil, invasivo, que trata de personas rotas, algunas de forma manifiesta y otras de manera más velada. Aquí la reseña: windumanoth.com/las-cosas-ha…

This post would have been 100x less scary had I not just finished reading @eric_larocca new book "Wretch" this week.

I’m so excited to share my upcoming novel, WE TURN GRUESOME AT NIGHT, is now available to request on NetGalley!! 💚

It’s Happening! "ONE OF THE GREATS: The Folk Horror of Florence the Machine" panel will take place at #Stokercon. Join an amazing group of panelists: Rae Wilde, @christaqua, @daciamarnold & @eric_larocca (Me as moderator) @saralambert04, @inklungz, you're both invited!

These people think all media should just be propaganda. Like a fucking popup video when someone gets stabbed or raped and it just says in the corner "authors note: this is morally bad"

We are absolutely delighted that ANGEL DOWN has been named the winner of the 2026 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction! A massive and well-deserved congratulations to Daniel Kraus! 🎉

I like "problematic" artists. People who were messed up, went insane, struggled with addiction, were so obsessed with their work that they alienated everyone in their lives. People who believed things that are profoundly wrong, yet wrote about them with burning conviction.

Your mother is problematic. Your father is problematic. Your son is problematic. Your aunt is problematic. The cashier at the local Tesco is problematic. You've probably bought a cookie from a bakery made by hands that have done unspeakable things. Every chocolate bar you've ever eaten has probably killed a 7 year old child slave in Cameroon. The gas that drives your car is fueled by engines of death. Every person who has ever smiled at you in the streets has committed some act that if you knew about it, would make you profoundly dislike them. We have all been bad, small, petty, unlikeable, cruel, downright mean. Authors are not special "problematic" beings, they're just more public. Part of being an adult is recognizing that without mercy for our fellow human beings, and ourselves, we'd all be condemned to death. Reading fiction should help us understand that we're all irreparably tainted with evil, every system is corrupted, every line is broken. And like, that's okay. That's what it means to be alive.

Another birthday present.
