Last night's Horror Writers Chat got me thinking about uncomfortable scenes in my fiction. In one story I explore a prevalent societal problem, and what was absolutely vital to me was getting the tone correct. Proper research and sensitivity readers are vital in achieving that. #amwriting

I don't actually promo much of late but I will this time.
It's a domestic noir more than a horror: about menopausal ladies bumping off bad guys with poisoned tea.
It's quite irreverent and rather funny, I think. But there's something about the Aunties. I really like them.

Gus had something to say, he had the three words on the tip of his tongue for weeks, repeated them in silence like a mantra, but didn't dare say them aloud to the person who needed to hear them. Now he would. Gus looked at the man in the mirror. "You're good enough."

There's a time and place for fading to black and negative space, and there's a time and place for writing unflinchingly. Each can be incredibly effective.
When it's time for the latter, I crawl through the muck if I have to. My extreme horror is, by design, unflinching.

I'm not drawn to any horror topics that I find uncomfortable to write about, but I do write about real horrors. This genre is built to explore these, and they always leave a bad taste with me, and I'm glad when the story is complete.

This question is not about the comfortable places that we go with horror. But the uncomfortable ones. The ones that turn us inside out even as we write them. The ones that make us wonder who we are, at the end. #HorrorWritersChat
