My story is free to read at Apex today, with my eternal gratitude to @apexjason, @LesleyConner, and everyone else at @apexmag willing to condone this bad behavior.

New short fiction today by @avgreenewrites: "The Monster Fucker Club"

[A.V. Greene @avgreenewrites]

I’m a longtime @apexmag reader, and they consistently publish some of the best dark sff out there. Also, as an Apex contributor, I can attest that the whole Apex team is so professional, transparent, and immensely respectful of human-created work. We need more Apex.

There are FIVE DAYS LEFT of our Kickstarter, and we are hovering just above $18,000. At $20,000 we unlock a fourth issue, can we do it??

Breaking my accidental vow of silence here, but I have a story in this one - Deus Deceptor, around 54:00 in the premium version.

@lindzmcleod @DantonSix @apexmag @JolieToomajan I mean, all are welcome in mine, just, you know, be sure you’re down.

[A.V. Greene @avgreenewrites]

(Kidding, kidding, I still cannot believe this story is in print, let alone in Apex’s incredible catalog - there’s not a story on this google doc that isn’t worthy of a win)

[A.V. Greene @avgreenewrites]

Okay, but I do bite.

[Sasha Brown @DantonSix]

It's the @apexmag Reader's Choice awards! I voted for Immortal Game by @lindzmcleod, Monster Fucker Club by @avgreenewrites, and All The Good You Did Not Do by @JolieToomajan. Now you three have to fight to the death, ok good luck

An honor to be included here, especially with so many absolute bangers on this list. Thanks @Wiswell!

[John Wiswell @Wiswell]

I write a lot of short fiction, but I also love reading it. Want to know what stories hit me the hardest this year?

Well welcome to my 2023 Short Fiction Recommended Reading List! https://t.co/gm9kkmXuL9

[John Wiswell @Wiswell]

As a guy with a whole novel about the love lives of monsters coming out next year, lemme tell you: this story by @avgreenewrites is eighteen different kinds of good.

[A.V. Greene @avgreenewrites]

@Wiswell Oo, I know what I’m doing in April 2024, because your novel looks amazing! (and thank you so much for reading 💚)

[A.V. Greene @avgreenewrites]

This guy has always really tickled me.

OK so we have been doing favorite fictional detective but who is your favorite fictional clergy person?

Here are five nice seconds with very nice sounds, for everyone else out there staring down the barrel of a difficult Monday.

I’m behind on everything in my life, but I did make this quiche today, and yes, there’s a reason I’m only posting an early-stage process photo of said quiche, and no, the crust did not work out, but I did take my best shot and that has to count for something, right?

[A.V. Greene @avgreenewrites]

Meow. This is great.

[hex @hexliterary]

The hallway reeks of cat.

“Meow,” barks the cat behind me.

“Babe, come to bed!” croons the cat inside my bedroom.

loving the hilarious horror of "My Dog is a Cat" by @xavier_agarcia , new today!!!

I’ve got a celestial cerulean code if anyone’s still in need of another social media presence to tend.

I took my daughter to the trampoline park this morning. It was a lot of fun, but I think most of my internal organs have been rearranged as a result.

[Filip Magnus 🐀 lousy role modelee @TheFilipMagnus]

Today's story is The Monster Fucker Club by A. V. Greene, published in the pages of @apexmag #139. Did not expect this subject matter to kick off the issue, was not disappointed.

(Ever wanted to fuck a monster? Think again, mebbie!)
