"A Presidential motorcade is driving from Texas to Oklahoma in bad weather" sounds like a premise for a great little indie horror flick.

Look at old completed art piece -> "Wtf how the heck did I make that? I can't do something like that again" -> make another piece of reasonably similar quality -> look at that piece after some time has passed -> "Wtf how the heck did I make that? I can't do something like that again" Repeat cycle 🔁

I was out running errands earlier and spotted a house with Halloween decorations on display, most notably a pair of full size human skeletons, one of them in a bridal gown. Best time of year. #Halloween

I choose to believe that this bear was told how awesome farmers' markets are by a recommendation from the robot car that recently drove through one in Denver.

Y’all, look at this absolute *unit* of a sycamore tree I found in the Pennsylvania woods. This giant was an absolute specimen. Over 200 years old. A trunk that dwarfed little ol’ six-foot me. I named it ‘Tree Rex.’ That’s an elder, man. An ancient. I do love me an old tree.

On Oct. 1, 1958, NASA officially opened its doors and began a new era of American space exploration. 🚀🌎 68 years later, Crew-13 launched toward the ISS on the same date, a remarkable birthday celebration written across the decades. ✨

Without NASA, the United States' space program could look very different.

I suspect that one reason Jack Smith won't be AG in the next Democratic Administration is that it'd be hard to prosecute these Republican dirtbags when so many of them can say "You should recuse yourself on account of we were absolute vile shitheads to you so you might lack impartiality."

Taking time each night to read Poe this week since we're within the anniversary of his final days, that span when no one knows what exactly befell him in the days leading up to his death. What a talent; what a complex and interesting man.

Apparently it takes a little effort to bypass the safeguards, but then "it will talk about any topic, it will even freely offer up recommendations about other topics that are also nefarious and it will be inventive and creative." I'm sure this is fine.

The thing about this book is that I wrote it from a deeply personal place-- it takes place where I went to hs, the main girl looks suspiciously like me-- about the rape culture I experienced at the age that was unacceptable. And all I've ever wanted for this book was its cultural irrelevance.

Hey authors fancy doing something fun for Halloween text in the alt description

Hi
Every Halloween week, Ginger Nuts of Horror likes to do something daft. This year it's the Halloween Author Interrogation: five silly questions sent to a batch of horror writers, with the best answers run together in one piece on Wednesday 28 October. We'd love you to be one of the accused.
There are no wrong answers, only answers your publicist might wince at. Answer as many as you like (three or more is perfect), and keep each one short, anywhere from a sentence to about 100 words.
1. You're allowed to keep one cursed object from horror fiction or film. Which one do you take home, and what everyday job do you put it to?
2. Which horror death would be the most embarrassing to explain to your mum?
3. Your house is haunted, but the ghost only has one complaint about you. What is it?
4. Which horror villain would make the worst flatmate, and what does the first passive-aggressive note you stick on the fridge say?
5. A demon offers to write one scene of your next book in exchange for your soul. Which scene do you hand over, and is it worth it?
Along with your answers, please send:
• A one-line bio
• Your latest or upcoming book, with a link
• An author photo we can use
• Your social handles, so we can tag you when it goes live
The deadline is Friday 16 October. Just reply to this email with your answers.
Thanks for playing along. It should be a lot of fun, and a nice way to get your name and book in front of our readers in the scariest week of the year.
Best wishes,
Jim McLeod
Ginger Nuts of Horror
