Do not pander. Do not dumb down. Trust your audience to be smarter than you. Trust them to be curious. Don’t erase your own voice for spurious bowing down to factors that bring nothing to the stories you need to tell. #Writing

Bound by ideas and history, even rust tells tales.

New Year sun burns the frosted memories of last year in final attempt for us to misstep. The way ahead is warm and lit for you.

Not wishing to bore with repetitious mentions, but my novel, BOOK THIRTEEN (written as A William James), is now available via Audible. My two LEEPUS novels will follow in due course, once my vocal cords are restored. www.audible.com/pd/B0G5D2FX4...

#HorrorWritersChat Hi. I’m David Southwell. I do Hookland. For me the industrial past holds more horror in its soot cicatrix because it’s not only root of the modern ecological terror we find ourselves living through, but as I working class writer I would still echoes as intergenerational trauma.

Good people.

Well done everybody. Surreal it’s over so soon. Amy and Martha are the best. Will write more when it’s processed in my brain.

We wake to mornings of cold magic. Exhale dragon-breath, crunch frost-frozen leaves as we walk. The year is dying. We feel it as rush of ghosts, a shivering that foretells the blade of ice upon its neck. No wonder this is the season where folklore burns bright. – #DAKilroy, 1982 #Folklore
