😱😱 Such a thrill to be part of a magazine's first issue! My gritty little nightmare story "Between the Blinds" is now haunting the pages of The Phantom Pulse!

I have a new story out in Kaleidotrope! In "Once Upon an Invasion," all your favorite fairy-tale princesses make first contact! Think Close Encounters of the Third Kind abducts Disney.

Plus, discover the REAL fate of the Big Bad Wolf...

How surreal.

This Way Lies Madness has been officially nominated for the Bram Stoker Award! My story Nothing in the Boy is included in this anthology. I'm so honored to share pages with such powerful, haunting, unsettling voices. Horror dreams come true are strange things!

P.S. Remember when I said I'd be better about posting exciting news? That was a lie, because I've known for weeks that This Way Lies Madness (the Flame Tree anthology featuring my story Nothing and the Boy) has made it onto the preliminary ballot for the Bram Stoker Awards!

I've got a new story out in Dark Matter's latest anthology, Little Red Flags, and WOW was this one a head-trip to write!! A small town medical examiner, a rock-n-roll cult, and a mummified cult leader still feverish to the touch.

Kinda in love with this sick little story...

My novelette, After the Solstice, comes out today!!

A dreamy sci-fi romance about two mysterious strangers and a love that only appears on the longest day of the year.

@StephenKing Another fun fact: lately, I’ve been really super bad about celebrating the little-big things I’m proud of, but I’m trying to do better. This feels like a good place to start.

Kicking off the new year with some awesome news! Two stories from my short story collection, Saturday Fright at the Movies, were included on Ellen Datlow’s recommended reading list for 2024.

“Ashes Upon Ashes Upon Ashes” and “Salting the Meat”

[Amanda Cecelia Lang @FinalGrrrl333]

Both are found footage horrors that capture very different human monsters. Fun fact: that second title was inspired by our old friend Pennywise and his nightmare-fuel MO, so yay for @StephenKing!

[Amanda Cecelia Lang @FinalGrrrl333]

Hey, kids! Does anyone anywhere know where I can find a copy of @StephenKing's Before the Play? Uncle Steve, any advice? 👻👻👻

[Amanda Cecelia Lang @FinalGrrrl333]

So honored to have a story in this one!

I'm so excited to have a new story out in The Deadlands!! "For Those Who Stay Buried" is a dark fantasy about broken love, feral hope, and taking back your power, however imperfectly.

Also, there's a three-legged fox. 🦊

They’ve already invaded your head, all they needed was a screen. "This is How You Die | Don't Listen, Change the Channel!" is now broadcasting on The Daily Tomorrow! A split-screen experimental sci-fi horror—aliens, TVs, and things that can’t be unseen.
