Midnight Pals: Hugo Drama

Hugo Gernsback: hey everyone its me, hugo gernsback Gernsback: editor of Amazing Stories and namesake of the hugo awards Gernsback: perhaps you've heard of them? Clive Barker: oh buddy Barker: buddy Barker: we've heard all about them ha ha

Stephen King: they're named after you? i thought they were named after victor hugo Gernsback: ha ha a common mistake Gernsback: but that's fine Gernsback: i'm not mad at all that victor hugo keeps getting the credit Gernsback: i think its funny Gernsback: in fact i'm laughing

Gernsback: ah yes my precious hugo awards! Gernsback: the most prestigious award in science fiction and fantasy! Gernsback: a place for serious business Gernsback: certainly no room for shenanigans here Gernsback: no room for tomfoolery Gernsback: no room for clownish buffoonery

Gernsback: The Hugo -- an award whose very name rings with integrity & honor!   Gernsback: it is no mere nebula! no paltry clarke! Gernback: the stoker, the howard, the lambda - none can compare! Gernsback: the L Ron hubbard writers of the future award? pah! dust before the hugo!

Gernsback: only the choicest cuts of science fiction and fantasy would ever achieve the lofty hugo award Gernsback: an award forever untainted by shenanigans or hijinks! Gernsback: now to take a big sip of coffee and read this  file 770 report!

Gernsback: what the--?! Gernsback: my beautiful hugos!!! tainted by the foul stench of corruption!!! Clive Barker: yeah boy i bet victor hugo's just sick about it Gernsback: Barker: just sick about what they did to his award Gernsback: Barker: ha ha Poe: clive leave him alone

Gernsback: my hugo!!! you were supposed to be a thing of beauty... not this monstrosity! Dean Koontz: gosh he's so sad about his award Koontz: do you think it would cheer him up if i gave him my nickelodean kids choice award? Poe: i think that would be a very nice gesture dean

Chris M Barkley: [thrusting microphone] Mr gernsback! mr gernsback! a statement for the press? Jason Sanford: [thrusting microphone] how do you respond to the allegations about your award mr gernsback? Gernsback: confound these intrepid newshounds of the 4th estate!

Gernsback: [wiping brow] don't worry, we will be taking measures to fix this Barkley: what are you going to do mr gernsback? Sanford: the people demand an answer mr gernsback! Gernsback: we'll uh Gernsback: we'll nominate an essay called 'Dave McCarty Can Fuck Off Into the Sun'

Gernsback: what a debacle! i cannot believe my good name will now forever be associated with such shady practices! HP Lovecraft: hey when are you gonna pay me for my story you ran? Gernsback: new phone, who dis?

Gernsback: you know who this really hurts? Gernsback: worse than the nominees secretly disqualified for politics? Gernsback: worse than the entirety of Chinese science fiction secretly disqualified for being Chinese? Gernsback: worse than the winners whose awards are now tainted?

Gernsback: the person that this hurts most of all Gernsback: is clearly bitter karella Gernsback: for reasons i can't articulate Gernsback: everyone should immediately go and heap conciliatory praise on bitter karella Gernsback: truly the most wronged person of all

Bitter Karella: [bravely holding back tears] no no it's not about me Bitter Karella: [voice cracking] my only thought is for the hugo community who has been through... so much... Bitter Karella: [stoically gazing into distance] they're the REAL heroes

Gernsback: look how bitter karella keeps a brave face... for our sake! King: god bitter karella is so brave... and so modest! Poe: truly a great goblin Poe: possibly the greatest Koontz: why? what did they do? Poe: dean! show some respect!

I think I just really like stories where a couple is killing people together. For example-

Interview with the Vampire, Heathers, Lisa Frankenstein, Sweeney Todd, Santa Clarita Diet etc…

I just realized this after seeing Lisa Frankenstein and loving it.

[freddysglove]

i love slashers but i know 90% of them don't brush their teeth and i don't know if i'd be able to handle that stank mentally

[cenobitebf]

Incredibly funny how your first date with Reese has him showing you Noroi: The Curse, turning into the Jersey Devil, devouring his mother, and then permanently locking your romance in, all within one evening. Bro I need time to think about this

top 5 horror book recommendations? it's spooky season and i need to get my read on...

Hell yeah! Gonna break this down a little. First an obligatory rehash of books I always recommend for this, these are like all-time faves for me

Wounds/North American Lake Monsters by Nathan Ballingrud - can't choose between these two, so they're tied for my favorite single author short story collection. Nathan Ballingrud is one of my favorite writers of all time

Her Body and Other Parties by Carmen Maria Machado - a very very close second for my favorite single-author short story collection. Machado is a beautiful writer and finding an author writing such powerful horror from a queer woman's perspective was world changing for me.

The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson - COME ON!!!! You might have already read this but consider reading it again! Absolute classic.

The Cipher by Kathe Koja - dark, fucked up meditation on art and addiction and toxic relationships. I think about this book all the time. A guy finds a weird hole in his apartment basement and then everything goes wrong (first slowly and then very very quickly)

Red X by David Demchuk - talked about this a lot before too but I really do love it. Fictional story inspired by real life serial killings that took place in Toronto's gay village over decades. The author inserts essays throughout the book that makes it part memoir as well. A supernatural story about real queer trauma.

--

Okay with that out of the way, here's some recommendations for stuff I think would be fun for Halloween specifically

Echoes edited by Ellen Datlow - OKAY CHEATING I ALSO RECOMMEND THIS ALL THE TIME BUT IT'S A PERFECT OCTOBER BOOK!!! Fuck-off huge ghost story anthology. Huge range of tones, pretty diverse group of contributing authors, it's my all-time favorite anthology.

Slewfoot by BROM - this one's got major autumn vibes. It's a story of a woman in Puritan New England who's accused of witchcraft. It's also a story about the devil. Kind of. The print version has really amazing paintings by the author, but I've heard this is also good in audio.

Come Closer by Sara Gran - this is a great little novella. Possession story that really packs a punch. I can't really say much more than that, but it's not a huge time investment and I think it's really worthwhile.

Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan LeFanu - if you can, get the version edited by Carmen Maria Machado (she adds in some great footnotes and it has some neat art too). This is a classic and also quite a brisk read. The original lesbian vampire story.

Silver Nitrate by Silvia Moreno-Garcia - here's a new release for you! I always watch a ton of horror movies in October, and if you're anything like me maybe you'll want to read a horror novel about horror movies. This story follows a female film editor in 90s Mexico and her washed up actor friend as they help a retired filmmaker complete his famously unfinished last film, which he had been making with a former Nazi occultist before strange misfortunes and the occultist's mysterious disappearance forced production to shut down.

Okay that was double the amount of recommendations requested so I'm stopping here. Haha don't look in the tags don't worry about it there's nothing there you're crazy

YEAR IN REVIEW:

Excluding comics and my own fiction, here are all of the books that I read in 2023, in the order that I started them. Some of the collected stuff I’d read before. I’m not quite finished with Seven Shades of Evil.

Alinghi has bought more coaching talent…

Kiwi and Aussie know how.

Jason Waterhouse and Phil Robertson joining Dean Barker. None of them can sail due to nationality rules, but it will be interesting to see if this trio can transmit their know-how.

Horror Movie Review: Hellraiser (2022)

"Hellraiser (2022) breathes new life into a franchise that was barely on life support with the plug about to be pulled".

It has been 4 years since Hellraiser: Judgement released, you know what that means. That’s right, it’s time for another attempt at somehow recapturing the magic of a film that released 35 years ago. As a huge fan of the franchise, I’ve been pretty forgiving to each new entry but even I have my limits. Revelations was a massive low point and then Judgement tried something different which led to…

DC & BATFAM MASTERLIST

Note: not all the DC/Batfam fics I've written, most only exist on my Ao3. Not currently being added to.

Tim's Pet Fish(/es) ~ Because everyone knows that fish are the easiest pets to keep. Or; Tim's experiences with pet fish over the years.

BatRules ~ The full list of rules that the Bat Family has, for both their civilian lives and their night lives. It gets a little out of hand. Just a little. [list!fic]

Tell Me Why The World Never Fights Fair ~ Welcome to the worst nightmare of all: reality! - Clive Barker.

Or, Three vigilantes (Bruce, Jason and Tim) don’t have that great of a time. It gets better. It just takes a bit.

If It’s Too Much Trouble… ~

TIM DRAKE (outgoing to JANET DRAKE): if it's too much trouble, I'll walk home.

He will actually do it, he will walk home, even if his legs are jelly and he feels like he's seconds away from ruining his dry clean-only school blazer.

THEY/THEM JASON SERIES🌟

Don't Talk To Me Like I Don't Know What You Are Feeling ~ Tim’s eyes are stormy. “I never replaced you, Jason. I was the Robin that got replaced, not you.”

To Be On the Receiving End of a Hug ~

Jason *being hugged by Dick*: This is terrible I hate you.

Dick: I can leave—

Jason, with a gun: You stay right the fuck here.

EVENT FICS🌟

The Concept of Christmas ~ Freshly-arrived-from-the-future Bart Allen did not understand the concept of Christmas. Plain and simple; he hadn’t grown up with it. Over the next seven years, he learns what the holiday involved through a range of holiday traditions. Not-so-freshly-arrived Bart Allen-Drake thought that he had a handle on the whole Christmas thing. [2023 Christmas!fic]

Of Shish kebab-ing and Brothers ~ Tim pays for Damian's defiance. [written for Whumptober 2022 prompts 'defiance' and "better me than you"]

Hot Potato, Hot Potato ~ Have you ever wanted to play hot potato with your littlest brother who has been magically turned into an iguana? The Batkids did. [written for Whumptober 2022 prompts 'manhandled']
