Does anyone know where or how to find beta readers? I would like to get some feedback on my short horror stories. I just don’t really have literary circles to exploit.

Does anyone else feel like they would have read a sequel to The Ruins by Scott Smith? I know that it would be hard not to be repetitive but I really wanted to see how Juan and Don Quixote would fare with their new Brazilian friends.

Has anyone else submitted a story to Tales of Horror the Magazine from Beyond?

I know I am a bit late to this one but I have just finished Adam Nevill’s The Ritual. What a ride! I had seen the movies before and now am feeling let down they didn’t follow through with the black metal band. What’s the verdict? Cult or Blood Frenzy? #HorrorBooks#AdamNevill#TheRitaul

It is starting to look like I may have to send a submission inquiry to Tales of Horror Magazine. Does anyone have any suggestions?

y’all know what one of the first nazi book burnings was right?

y’all know why they did it

y’all know trans people were one of their first targets and even the ALLIES left us in the camps when liberating everyone else

y’all see what’s right in front of you, right?

While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI:

At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

Or as I call it, spooky #writing weather.

Have a great day #skywriters!

If you write, you’re a writer. It’s that simple.

Is waiting for a response to your submission supposed to be harder than doing the writing?
