As a fledging writer, I think my favorite accomplishment so far was having Kasey narrate one of my short stories, TALL TALES ‘N’ TREMBLIN’. My only regret is that it was only my second accepted piece, and I wish the writing had been better. If you are interested in hearing it, or reading it, here’s a link: kaidankaistories.com/ju…. The story was published on the podcast, Kaidankai: Ghost & Supernatural Stories by Linda Gould (@kaidankaistories.com/ju…). The podcast is available on all the major outlets.

Kasey Lansdale has her debut novel out next year—FIRST CHANCE, from Blackstone September 2026, so get it pre-ordered now. It is ALWAYS a great way to support a writer. A pre-sale helps further sales. They show publishers the work is getting buzz and that the author is working to help promote their book. If you can’t do that, share the word. Talk about the book here and online. Get your library to order it. Kasey has a few ideas as well. See her post here: kaseylansdale.substack.… She may be visiting your neck of the woods when she goes out to promote her book.
