Very cool place! Great owner. Great books. They are super nice and knowledgeable. It’s very family friendly here. Just fair warning, The owner likes to dress like his dog. So, you may see him dressed in a dog suit from time to time,

Some pretty professional ghouls in this joint. If you don't have the pleasure of stopping in physically they have a great online store!

The staff are helpful and welcoming. Max, the owner is awesome (he is a horror author too)!! They have horror books that you won't find in other retail bookstores and a few signed copies. They carry spooky books for YA, middle, and kids too. This is my favorite bookstore!! 🤓🖤
Dog Ears Podcasts

Introducing DOG EARS…a new podcast about publishing, writing, and dogs

Greetings, ghouls! This has been a long time coming, but the Dog Ears podcast is finally live. I’ve been teasing this project for over a year at this point, I think, and I’m pleased to report the wait is over! Check out Luke Spooner’s logo artwork:

It is also an absolute honor to reveal the podcast’s theme song: “Telescope” by The High Strung!

Episode one, titled “Smiling As They Shovel Dirt On Your Face”—in which I share an amusing and embarrassing anecdote about my first short story acceptance—is out right now and can be listened wherever you download podcasts. I have big, big plans for this show. Please consider leaving a review on iTunes. It really helps!

You can also listen to the episode below:

In the debut episode of DOG EARS, Max talks about how a genuine lunatic published his first short story, and warns writers about common red flags when it comes to submitting to open markets. What is an anthology mill, and why should you finally start respecting yourself as a writer and stop settling for anybody just to see your name in print?
