Author Paul! Lang

“The beast of the gulch is on the move. It hunts without reason. It kills without eating. Its prey is the sound of a beating heart. Within the shallows of the gulch dwells death.”

Book 9 of The Kingdom’s Disdain is available now!

  • WD 142 “Special Effects”

    A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. Special Effects  Chest pain Is a constant  A wall between myself and the body There is a chronology that I am separated from as I hover  Above the flesh, noncommittal Like a prince who can’t make up his mind You’re falling into the water You’re stumbling

  • Sunday Spooky

    Creator Journals 10/19/25 No writing today, just scary movies. Longlegs and Midsommar, and a little bit of Faith: The Unholy Trinity. What a great and spooky weekend.  Tomorrow I jump back into chapter 6, and I kind of want to make some rather significant changes, so wish me luck. I wonder, if I kept mailing

  • I Just Want to Play Blasphemous

    Creator Journals 10/18/25 The revision is coming along, but I’d rather be playing Blasphemous. The next chapter is taking a longer time to revise, or maybe I’m dragging my feet. I’m not really sure which. Either way, I think this chapter is coming out better for having a few more hours to cook.  I am

  • Octoberal Decline

    Creator Journals 10/17/25 Starting to drag my feet a bit. I think I’m a bit burned out on output. I was hoping this wouldn’t happen. I think I have just enough in me to finish and release CoD, but I’m gonna have to rest for a little bit after that. I get up at 5:30

  • Reborn on Gusher Day

    Creator Journals 10/16/25 Well, after about 170 days I finally missed one. I’ve decided that instead of trying to “Make it up” somehow, it would be better to just try and get past it and move on, so here I am, back on the horse.  Today is a personal holiday. I call it Gusher Day.

    Your voice in the windCalling in a way that can’t be silencedPerforates my eardrums Runs me ragged through the streetsAnd there is no place of silenceNo call to answerIn the halls of the deadWe walk onReap and sowShrink and grow In your memoryAlways in the shadowOf your damned memory

  • Facing Darker Layers

    Creator Journals 10/13/25 I got a haircut today and I don’t hate it. Haircut used to always make me feel weird, but I think I’ve locked down a style that I feel sort of comfortable with.  Off day. Took me all afternoon to revise chapter 3. I still feel like it could get better, but

  • Perfecting Vulture

    Creator Journals 10/12/25 I spent most of the day driving around for work. Tomorrow I’m going to sleep and I’m going to sleep so hard.  So, what has my literary journey looked like today? Well, I brought the Hellboy Omnibus to work with me and didn’t look at it at all.  I thought a lot

  • Saturday Scramble 

    Creator Journals 10/11/25 My actual job made me soooo tired today guys. So many people spoke to me.  If people speak to me too much, sometimes I begin to perish. I got chapter 2 revised but I’m not even sure if it’s good. Transitioning from comedy to horror is a sharp shift. I used to

  • Try Brain?

    Creator Journals 10/9/25 I was off work today, which means I got 8 hours of sleep instead of my usual 5! I wanted to spend the day finishing my very first revision of Beach Knight, but I got tired out and only managed to do like 10 pages. I’m supposed to be dedicating this month
