been thinking a lot about stories where the most important char is already gone, but their presence is so ingrained throughout and then u finally meet them
Horror is meant to be a place to explore darker themes in a safe and comfortable way. You can't expect people to trust you with their work when they see you promoting and supporting fucking genocide my dude
ICYMI, the digital version of Bound In Flesh will be free to download forever. If you want to buy a paperback, or send support myself or the writers, that's rad too! But we want this to be available for anyone who needs it.

It's the big day! My debut novella INSIDE OUT is finally here, ready to goop the world. You can get paperbacks from the zon or buy from Darklit directly, where the ebook is 99 cents!

HOIII I'm Lor!! weird lil dude, writer of body horror. My novella INSIDE OUT is all about gettin' goopy. I am the editor of BOUND IN FLESH from
@GhoulishBooks
. I also have a cat named Pierogi Platter. 🏳️⚧️💖🥟
I was due to have Inside Out published by D&T. I noticed their plans to use n/fts in November and immediately asked for my contract to be terminated. I hold no ill will towards Dawn but I could and cannot support an industry that exploits both artists and the world.
@yeenvogue
i considered Marika, and also Godwyn (to a lesser extent, you don't hear about him specifically but his reach is growing/he is introduced already dead)
Happy to announce my novella INSIDE OUT has found its forever home with

i've never felt more accepted and comfortable being my whole self as i do now, and i owe that entirely to my queer horror buds. i want that feeling for everyone.
@Arielle_Ivy
Around 6 years old sat in front of fireplace to dry after bath. Robe was melted to me and my entire back flaked off in huge chunks. Didn't tell my dad for days because I was scared/embarrassed (autistic). Months of aftercare
just started cryin again about how INSIDE OUT is actually going to be a book in less than 2 months. after two failed pub deals for diff reasons and a lot of stress and wanting to give up its actually happening
🖊️ NEW SIGNING
We are so excited to announce that
@lorelli_
has signed with Hear Us Scream Press to publish their horror novella 'Cosmic Dyke Patrol' in 2023.
HUS is so honoured to work with Lor on their new book! Keep an eye out for future details.
I'm autistic and have ADHD. I've been lucky to work with BOTH
@DarklitPress
and
@PressOrchid
and have had nothing but positive, affirming experiences with both. I think it's important to be open and honest about this stuff, especially in terms of inclusivity and disability.
Poe: guys we're going to have lor gislason tell a story tonight
Poe: and i want you all on good behavior
Poe: i don't want any jokes
Barker: no jokes about the slime person ok sure got it
Poe: first of all clive
Poe: yes
Poe: secondly the preferred nomenclature is ichor-american
I wrote a novella made up of loosely connected shorts all involving melting corpses and got a bunch of rad people to illustrate bits. It's called INSIDE OUT
I don’t know who needs to hear this but, tell us about the book you wrote.
I know marketing sucks but we want you to be successful. There are so many options out there and a post here and there really helps us.
I bought 3 books last week because an author promoted it
Soooo xmas morning our pipes burst. We have no water for at least a few days and it will cost thousands to fix. If you want to hire me to write for you now would be a great time haha.. or if you want to throw a few bucks our way
Just a lil announcement going forward INSIDE OUT and SICK! STORIES FROM THE GOOP TROOP will be part of
@GhoulishBooks
, alongside our fellow perverts and weirdos. 💖💚🪱
Looking for interview/podcast opportunities for my books current+future. (INSIDE OUT, BOUND IN FLESH, COSMIC DYKE PATROL, FLESH OF THE SEA, SICK! STORIES FROM THE GOOP TROOP) and gross horror in general. Anything you can pass along would be helpful.
Genuinely wouldn't be here without the love and support of Mae, she is practically family. I'm stoked to become a part of her family now too. Medusa Haus🩷
Pleased to announce Medusa Publishing Haus has officially employed
@lormaggot
