I’m three chapters into the book I got in the Utah Horror Writers bloody elephant book exchange, and it’s absolutely delightful so far. I’ll report back on whether it sticks the landing later. Anyone else indulging in some holiday horror? 📚 😱 #booksky

I've updated the #HorrorWritersChat feed to ask people refrain from using the tag for anything else. If you're promoting horror books, I strongly recommend using this string of emojis 💙📚👀📢📚😱 That's all emojis for both general book feeds, and for horror feeds. Fewer characters and greater reach.

My starter pack needs more space than the 150 allotted so I’ll make a part two of horror folk, creatives, and evil doers. Also, why does Bluesky allow me to change the title of the pack but the graphic still says “horror writers”. Anyways, go celebrate these artists go.bsky.app/QBuj23L

Just finished playing through Thank Goodness You’re Here with a friend this fine Thanksgiving Eve. It’s hilarious, weird, and genuinely as much fun to watch as to play. Took us about 2 hours to play it all the way through, and I laughed out loud the entire time. Five stars / 10 bob.

I love this cover. Take a look at the cloud, I didn't see the face there at first, but it makes it that much creepier.

Hi, I'm Beverley Lee and I'm a dark fiction writer from the UK. My work specialises in atmosphere and the build up of dread, and is entirely character driven. This week I've been working on a new story, codenamed Birds, which is a folk horror/dark fantasy/revenge tale. #HorrorWritersChat

After visiting and becoming enamored with Astoria, OR, I set my gothic supernatural grief horror novella in one of Astoria’s gorgeous Queen Anne Victorians. The smell of the rain, the lumbering energy of the cargo ships on the river, the SEAFOOD - I love that town. #HorrorWritersChat

I’m Caryn, and I write horror blended with mysteries (sometimes more on the cozy end, sometimes decidedly not, nearly always with cats and ghosts). I’ve been re-plotting my new witchy thriller that I’m seriously behind on with hopes of catching back up over the long weekend. #HorrorWritersChat

What more do we need to say? Author @carynlarrinaga.bsky.social. These horror adventure concepts offer fresh terror to Arium: Flash's fill-in-the-blank goodness. Drop them into any ttrpg campaign, and you won't be sorry. Or maybe... you will?

I taught a horror writing class for teens and asked them, “Who wants to write light horror and take your readers on a fun ride?” Some hands went up. Then, “Who wants to ruin people’s lives?” All the hands shot into the air. We have a wave of very dark horror coming. 😂 #horrorwriter #horrorwriting
