Newt's Nightmares
Greetings, my wicked darlings!
I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine’s Day last month. To commemorate this most romantic of occasions, I released Ocean Lotus (which I later renamed Love. Sex. Death.—the original title never sat right with me). My own Valentine’s Day was a wicked mix of overeating, vicious sniping, and Nosferatu. I know opinions on it have been a bit marmite in the community, but I loved it. It’s a slow burn, but the cinematography was stunning, the sound design atmospheric, and the acting magnificent.
The Hunger was released last month, and I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who wrote in about it. The response has been overwhelmingly positive, and it has single-handedly convinced me to write Tales of the Macabre, Vol. 4.
That said, I’ll probably end up writing a novel instead—I’m nothing if not contrary and darkly whimsical.
I’ve written the first drafts of one and a half stories featuring Dr. Blake from The Braemoor Incident. If I can clean them up sufficiently, I’ll release them this month. But knowing me, I’ll get distracted and then you’ll get to enjoy something bizarrely different.
What have you all been watching lately? What am I missing out on?
And did you enjoy Nosferatu?
Sweet screams,
Newt
