Not sure how many of my fellow writers feel this way. But sometimes storytelling feels like a curse. I'm trying to stay focused on my WIP and my mind wanders long enough to dream up a whole new world. Guess I'll get to that one in a few years? #writingcommunity #horrorwriter #horrorstories

The Rattle of Bones is on sale til the end of the month for $2.99!! If I sell ten copies, I'll... do something. No clue what. Eat a hot pepper on camera? Post my feet? Go find a wild possum and put a hat on it? No clue! ebook: books2read.com/u/4DGOAQ

I'm taking a short break from anything Land of Gold-related, as I've focused on it the entirety of October. Instead, I'm going to once again promote @chaoticauthor.online's wonderful work, as he has been a founder of this incredible hashtag community! bsky.app/profile/chao... #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat Q4: As the scroll unfurled, I could feel it, like the cold satisfaction of a rival. Some permeating, undeniable pain. Scanning the cyclopean symbols, a second horrible realization: Not only was the pain growing, but the source was not the scroll. It emanated from behind my eyes.

#HorrorWritersChat Q3: That everyone's preferred choice of pasta is meaningless, damnable even. Spaghetti is the best one, it's written in the stars, and if you listen, you can hear it in your fragile bones. But if everyone knew they might take mine, so I will suffer linguini in silence.

Late to the party as always... I'm Katherine Silva, Kat for short and I write sad horror that edges along the abyss to existentialism. For the first time, I'm not sure how to answer this question. If I told you, wouldn't it be revealing the terrible truth hidden from humanity? #horrorwriterschat

Hello! Matt from the hospital here where my first dose of chemo has just finished. I write as MG Mason, lots of ghost stories. The terrible truth? The manner by which humanity will destroy itself: petulant stupidity. But hope always accompanies, it can't be killed. #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat Q2: I don't know about ideal, but my favorite is the classic forbidden book. One of my few life goals is to have a proper library-style study in my home, so I can showcase and study my haunted books and objects. If I ever go missing, I died the way I lived. Reading weird shit.

Greetings and helllooooooO! I be Eryn, I write psychological and supernatural horror. My seal contains just one terrible truth, a simple and haunting one. When you look for monsters, you're looking in the wrong places. #HorrorWritersChat

Good evening! Stephanie Ellis, Wrexham-based, writer of dark fiction esp. folk horror, gothic, post-apocalyptic. Terrible Truth? We are nothing but AI, our origins so deeply buried we have forgotten.& one day, the Programmer will wipe the registry & we will disintegrate into bits. #HorrorWritersChat

Good afternoon, Doctor. I love what you've done with the place. I'm a multi-genre author, always trying new forms, styles, themes, and subgenres. I regret to inform you I no longer have such a seal--I broke it years ago and set my Terrible Truths free to prey on humankind. #HorrorWritersChat

Greetings #HorrorWritersChat What a treat to be here together with Dr Bedlam! Mary, writer of cosmic, gothic and weird horror at your service. My Seal has been handed down to the eldest daughter in each generation. Its meaning? Unknown. But none dare break the seal and be named a Disappointment

#HorrorWritersChat - I'm Trish Wilson, Media Director for The Horror Zine. I write quiet horror and horror comedy. The seal containing my Terrible Truth is carved into a sigil I wear around my neck. If I don't wear that sigil, I go mad. Either that, or I sing "Prayer For The Dying" terribly offkey.

Hey #HorrorWritersChat, I write grim horror tragedies and horror-coms, but also dabble in dark fantasy / sci-fi. I don’t get the “seal” thing, but I do own a meteorite shard made of an unknown element, and the thing is, it’s started… well, humming… and I’d swear I can hear a whisper under the hum…

Amanda M. Blake, purveyor of dark fiction, quiet to extreme. My seal is lost somewhere in the cosmic black hole of my closet. No one remembers what it is for or even what it looks like. I think half the reason I don't clean my closet is bc I'm afraid I'll toss it by mistake. #HorrorWritersChat

Hello #HorrorWritersChat. My name is Rami Ungar, I write horror and dark fantasy, and my mouth has to seal itself shut multiple times a day to keep me from spilling uncomfortable truths... like love is just a series of chemical reactions in your brain designed to get you to breed.

#HorrorWritersChat & I'm HD Beird, sexy weird This week HD stands for Halloween Dweller, cause if they can stary advertising Christmas in November I'm staying in October F'ck it! I write horror set in a secondary world sci-fi setting, full of smut and cynicism Seal? Uh, I like Kiss from a Rose

I'm Amber, a horror and dark fiction writer from central Maine. I write all kinds of horror, most with cults or ghosts. The seal I have is the deep black of the void and ... sparkly? #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat Hello! I'm Artemis Quinn, and I write dark fantasy and paranormal horror. My seal is one that is seemingly made of wax, but if you touch it, it drains your blood to reveal horrors beyond your comprehension. It also seems to react to whiskey.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 1: I write horror inspired by old movies. And terrible truths don't need to be hidden, humans just deny them anyway.

Greetings, I’m Kimberly Davis Basso. I write horror that sneaks up on you. I’m not entrusted with a seal, other than one of those envelopes that you lick and then ten minutes later that awful taste blossoms, igniting your saliva glands so you have to swallow a slick of ick. Q1 #HorrorWritersChat

I'm Beverley, a dark fiction writer from the UK specialising in atmosphere and the build-up of dread. My seal translates the language of felines (and their domination over all humans) but unfortunately it's written in invisible ink... #HorrorWritersChat

Greetings, esteemed colleagues. I am E. D. Jones, author of the weird, the cosmic, the unfathomable horrors that lie beyond the veil of madness. My seal contains the truth that the working class possesses a magical, eldritch power to overthrow an unjust world. #horrorwriterschat

#HorrorWritersChat Jez, very nearly 60, based in Aberdeen, Scotland, I write ‘kitchen sink horror’. I’m afraid I don’t understand the rest of the question.

#HorrorWritersChat My name is Rosé Black. I write horror and horror comedy. The seal of truth I possess is so horrible that if it were to ever be released, nobody would be able to look at donuts the same way again.
