I hve communed with the Great Ones (contacted Laurel and Keene) and received their blessing (they've agreed to co-host again). After consulting the stars for the most auspicious date to live the scream (compared calendars), it has been revealed that DECEMBER 13TH at 7 PM EST is the appointed hour! 😱
We are so back, baby!

Remember last year when a bunch of authors got together for live readings, lots of laughter, and a good cause? Together, the horror community raised $1,800 for the ACLU. What do we think; do we want to do it again? LIVING THE SCREAM 2025?

This new effort to end Section 504 for equal access for disabled people to gov funded spaces is vile, but nondisabled people need to understand this is not the 1st step in trying to kill us:

Ever since you were told “only the vulnerable” need to worry about Covid, so you stopped— you paved the way.

But centrists, leftists and progressives need to ask themselves - who else would they sacrifice for normality? What other vulnerable minorities would they be fine with destroying if it meant that they could keep their nice social lives? Because the last five years have showed it’s not no one.

I just…have my suspicions about the revolutionary capacity of a left-wing population who abandoned disabled and high-risk people at the drop of a hat for an assurance of their own normality.

But it’s not to late to fix that particular choice (except for all the dead and disabled people who can’t)

LIVING THE SCREAM was filled with delicious horror, hilarity, and deeply-sweet cheesiness and hope.

We are all stronger for standing together.

Over $1700 dollars raised for the @aclu.bsky.social!
