The reading period for Cursed Morsels: A Food Systems Horror Anthology was one of the more stressful ones I've had, primarily because there were only two pieces I really loved for most of the reading period, and only in the last week did six or seven others come in that truly hit for me.

What It Feels Like at Cornell Right Now
As a professor at the Ivy League school, Kate Manne has known many, many victims. There’s a palpable feeling on campus, she writes, that this is big.

I'm so relieved that Cursed Morsels: A Food Systems Horror Anthology has enough great submissions to make a mini-antho. I'll send the last round of rejections and all acceptances in a few days after I review the final submissions. Still got one to send in? Do it today! Last chance!

Here is the roughly-outlined vision. Any interest?
Horror Writing Bootcamp Curriculum Overview
Course Overview
This month-long horror-writing bootcamp is aimed at writers on a budget. The ideal student for this course is someone who has been writing for a bit but has only recently gotten interested in pursuing publication. On the scale of brand-new writer (1) to seasoned writer (10), this person is probably a 3 or 4.

Course Structure
This course will include four one-hour-long meetings spread out over a month. It would be open to ten students. Eight slots will be $100 each, and the other two will be free, reserved for writers who otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford the course. There will be minimal hoop-jumping involved in requesting a free spot.

Each course meeting will have a different theme:
Horror with a Fresh Face: Breathing New Life into Old Monsters
I’ve Got a Bad Feeling about This Place: Developing Atmosphere-Rich Settings
Stop Explaining So Much: Respecting the Strange … and Your Reader
It’s Showtime: Submitting to Short Story Markets

Students will have work to complete before each class—generally, one short story or article to read (freely accessible online) and one short writing assignment to complete. We will discuss the readings in relation to each week’s theme. I will also provide written feedback on the writing assignments. Periodically, we will do in-class writing exercises, followed by opportunities to share work and give peer/instructor feedback.

By the end of this course, students will have finished a 1,000- to 3,000-word story. I will provide one round of feedback on these stories, and students will find markets to submit them to after a round of revision.
