#HorrorWritersChat Q4

Some pieces I write only for myself, channeling rage or whatever feelings I'm overwhelmed by.
Writing can be my therapy, and at those times I'm in complete control and the world cannot intrude without my permission.
Rebellion imo is denying what the world seeks to impose on us
#HorrorWritersChat Q4
Now to The Horrors.

In his blog post
CREATING PERSONAL MEANING IN A DARK WORLD IS HOW WE TAKE A STAND,
Matt said “finding joy in being a creative person is an act of rebellion.”

Share a creative outlet that brings you joy and/or feels like an act of rebellion.

#HorrorWritersChat Q3

My short term dream is to get anything published in the traditional route. I'm currently focused on a short story I wrote called the Chimera, but also juggling a few novels at various stages pf the revision process.
#HorrorWritersChat Q3

This one is going to be hard.

One of the last things Matt asked us at Horror Writers Chat was to share a horror writing related dream.

This can be;
> an actual dream that inspired you.
> a dream you have for your writing career.

Interpret this any way you’d like.

#HorrorWritersChat Q2
Horror means consenting to feel uncomfortable, to question the world and yourself, to questions assumptions and to embrace the freedom to ask why.

It's also for goofy little guys getting up to mischief.

Its so much to so many, and from that it draws its greater meaning.
#HorrorWritersChat Q2
This is one of Matt’s favourite questions to ask us:

What does horror mean to you?

#HorrorWritersChat Q1
Hey all, it's been a while since I've been focused on editing/submitting short stories to publishers, but I had to come back in honor of Matt.

Matt carved this space from nothing, bringing his full self week after week to provide a platform and community for authors.
#HorrorWritersChat Q1
Thanks for attending our gathering today.

First, introduce yourself & share the horror subgenres you write.

Then, please share a happy memory you have of Matt OR a happy memory of being part of this community he started.

If the feelings are too raw right now, post a candle 🕯️

You're telling me that after dealing with the stress of three successive cancelled flights in ONE day, merely an hour after I boarded the Amtrak for a 38 hour trip cross country, the Democrats decided they no longer stand for healthcare?
Garbage, this party is garbage, throw them all away.

BlueSky is automatically hiding posts with cuss words in them.
You may want to adjust your settings:
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

Matt's responsible for bringing so many great horror writers together. He's given so many indie authors a spotlight for their work, and the weekly celebrations of horror writing provides a welcome refuge from the horrors of real life.
Help him out if you can.
I don't normally do this, but I've been burning the candle at both ends.

Other half had a major op earlier this year and now I'm in hospital for an investigation.

Regardless of what's wrong, I need rest, but I've had little work this year.

I'd appreciate if anyone is able to help out.
