Your Monday Mourning Report #8
Welcome one and all to the latest incarnation of Your Monday Mourning Report in which I dig around the dark webs and return with bones to share at the table for all who enjoy a quick gnaw now and again.

Writing As Life by William F. Nolan:

Available now for preorder in ebook, trade paperback and signed & numbered limited edition hardcover.

Night Train by Thomas F. Monteleone — First Time in Hardcover, Signed by the Author.
One of Monteleone’s most original horror novels. This is the story of the hidden and unknown worlds beneath the streets of the City That Never Sleeps.
In the bedrock beneath New York, an ambitious TV journalist and a hard-bitten cop enter an eerie maze of abandoned tunnels, searching for a train that vanished with all aboard — a century ago. What they find is a world more bizarre and threatening than anything they could have imagined.
Under the city of skyscrapers and tourists, under the peep shows and the penthouses, within the clammy darkness, around the next turn . . . an un-imagined world of evil awaits.

The Silence by Tim Lebbon is now available for pre-order! Now a gripping Netflix movie starring Stanley Tucci and Kiernan Shipka. A suspenseful masterpiece from New York Times bestselling author Tim Lebbon. In the darkness of an underground cave system, blind creatures hunt by sound. Then there is light, there are voices, and they feed... Swarming from their prison, the creatures thrive and destroy. To scream, even to whisper, is to summon death. As the hordes lay waste to Europe, a girl watches to see if they will cross the sea. Deaf for many years, she knows how to live in silence; now, it is her family's only chance of survival. To leave their home, to shun others, to find a remote haven where they can sit out the plague. But will it ever end? And what kind of world will be left?

Sure, the Mourning Report has linked to this book already, but the final(?) Repairman Jack novel, The Last Christmas by F. Paul Wilson is almost sold out so last chance before they’re all gone. Or, at least all gone until the trade paperbacks come out.

Billie Martin via Facebook: I started rereading THE WORLD ACCORDING TO GARP last night. In his preface to the 2018 fortieth anniversary edition, John Irving speaks out against anti-transgender discrimination. Good on him even if he can be annoying as hell.

Jeremy C. Ship vi Twitter: Life is better with a book in your hand, a cat in your lap and Halloween in your heart.

Scott Goudsward vis Facebook: Things you don't expect to see in a CVS parking lot. Guy - drunk or stoned or both, trying to dance seductively to the Dive-thru atm camera. Hip thrusts and crotch grabs included!

Wrath James White via Facebook: Last night, I was onstage as one of the judges of the costume contest at Scares That Cares and got to witness how amazing this charity is as they interrupted the contest and brought a breast cancer survivor onstage and presented her with a ten thousand dollar check to cover her medical bills. They then brought a father and his son out of the audience, the man's son had physical and developmental disabilities, and they presented him with a check for ten thousand also, to help care for his child. Another ten thousand dollar check went to a burn victim who was unfortunately not present to receive it. I don't think the re was a dry eye in the place. That's why I support this charity.
Now in its sixth year, Scares That Cares is the only charity horror convention in America, and I am proud to say I have supported them since year one. One thing I learned this year is that I can, should, and will do so much more to support them. Great job, Joe Ripple. Keep it up.
