Well, #HorrorWritersChat, tbh, I'm a mere spooky pickle. Not a evil one. So I can't say I'd make my hexes go too far beyond mild pettiness and discomfort. But in stories, weeeeell, it really depends. Some have to give up their soul. Some lose dignity. Limbs. Memories. Those sorts of things.

Help, I've been cursed! If ten people would just click on this link and pretend to look at my website I'm SURE the curse could be lifted... martin-shannon.com #HorrorWritersChat

Behold, the cover of Book 2! It's not coming out until next summer, but you can still add it on Goodreads and pre-order if you'd like. No curses or hexes if you don't. I just appreciate the support! #HorrorWritersChat

Ah yes, greets #HorrorWritersChat. It is I, a spooky pickle. I cast jarring hexes from the towers of Castle Brine. As for curses that frighten me most? The curse of improper seals! Oh! and paralysis and rotting hexes.

My short horror story collection “Tales From The Parkland” and my horror/dark fantasy/mystery “The Candy Witch” are now available as audiobooks. I would really like to thank, Sean Drc Cordry, @veloxbooks.bsky.social, and @spokenrealms.com for bringing my books to life. www.amazon.com/stores/Ronal...

New flesh will grow nicely around it. Dedication will be key, but in a few weeks, life will spring forth. Now, blood is needed for nurturing. Thankfully, there are many retirees without loved in the neighborhood. #HorrorWritersChat

Thanks for a fun one! I'm working on a collaborative horror story with new chapters each week with a poll where you decide what happens next. For this week, we're trying to hide from giants, so you just have to pass a stealth check, D&D style. #horrorwriterschat open.substack.com/pub/writesin...

#HorrorWritersChat Coming soon: My story THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR appears in THE LIZZIE BORDEN HOUSE ANTHOLOGY. There will be a party at the haunted Borden B&B in Fall River, MA in Nov. My story A TWIST OF FATE appears in PRETEND YOU DON'T SEE HER: THE INVISIBLE WOMAN.

It is your choice, good sir, my dear, to lose your voice or shed a tear, but should you claim a tooth too much, instead we'll maim and take the bunch. #HorrorWritersChat

#horrorwriterschat - here’s a link to my last horror film. Red Herring’s Found Footage Nightmare: Black and White Version youtu.be/Ga8-2qFXxh0

You rip out the tooth, its blood gleaming with opportunity. No. Disappointment hits like a spike of mortality. The pleasure never came. You will never know, never see what they see. All the pale bodies around you laugh, drunk in ecstasy, splattered in blood. You die aware. 🧛‍♀️ #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat Coming soon: My Horror Zine Interview with John Russo, who co-wrote NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD with George Romero. Also interviewing punk rocker/director Ani Kyd Wolf and actor Casper Van Dien who are working on SPAWN OF THE LIVING DEAD. Braaaains! LOL

I really enjoyed editing the YA scifi book last week. I would like to edit a book a month. I'm really good at it and I love to do it. It's a weird kind of joy, to take a book and make it even better. #developmentaleditor #editing #amediting #horroreditor #horrorwriterschat

Last week I quite enjoyed SHIVER by our own @bertpiedmont.bsky.social . Mermaids and sharks and shark mermaids. Loved the main trio! #horrorwriterschat

The quality of light contains the meaning. A narrow glint, as if spied from a door ajar, signals risk and a need for caution. A rude, stinging glare is prohibition. But this glimmer means you must seize your chance. By your victim's whimper, the tears in his eyes, he knows it too. #HorrorWritersChat

Fantastic job with the questions, Gree! Well, since today’s theme is about curses, my short story, Demonstration Not For Sale, is about a cursed record! You can read it on Chain Letter’s Substack. Plus, there’s tons of creepy stories there! #HorrorWritersChat open.substack.com/pub/weeklych...

#HorrorWritersChat Finally, I'm working on a new short horror story. It involves an angry young woman with post-partum depression and pica. She has swallowed a Pez dispenser, a pen, a ceramic turtle, and an eyeglass screwdriver. She's just getting started.

They’d have to face themselves. Truly face themselves, the demons within them, the cost of their actions. And more, they’d have to go deeper, understand the why…why do they do what they do? Why are they the way they are? And then remove that from themselves, whatever it is. #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat My book The Assassins Raven is out on Amazon. A cozy Fantasy/Horror. A female Assassin ☠ A soldier ⚔ Elves 🧝‍♂️ Some Zombies 🧟‍♂️ Need I say more?

You rip out the tooth, it's blood gleaming with opportunity. He saw a disc lodged inside, where he always knew it would be. The finely etched symbols full of his blood. Somehow he knew that if he wiped them clean, the curse would consume him. In the bloody vial however, freedom. #horrorwriterschat

Such a good book, get the tissues ready 😭

“You rip out the tooth, it’s blood gleaming with opportunity. Clamp your mouth over theirs and kiss… hard and deep… sucking… tasting the copper tang of their essence as it fills your mouth… as it’s slakes your lust… and burns you to life again.” #HorrorWritersChat

Harrowfield is heading towards publication day Oct 1st! Folk horror with an isolated village, standing stones, long barrow, Midsummer traditions and a Michelin-starred pub. Come, walk the path of green and gold ... mybook.to/Harrowfield #HorrorWritersChat

You rip out the tooth, it’s blood gleaming with opportunity Offer me beautiful stickers and pens, then I will reward you a curse immunity. #HorrorWritersChat

Not much, mostly they just have to exhibit signs of actual, heartfelt repentance🤷‍♀️ Ego death can be exceptionally painful. Some crimes may require the sacrifice of some crime related body parts, too. I don't make the rules. (shush) #horrorwriterschat

They'd have to give up one of their senses, touch🙌, sight👁️, taste 👅or hearing👂. Either way, it will be a gruesome sacrifice for I'm a petty bitch 💋 #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat Question 3: Continuing from my last answer, I wouldn't need a sacrifice. They'd have to give good reason to believe they wouldn't hurt anyone else if released.

"You rip out the tooth, its blood gleaming with opportunity. Sunken candles connect pinpricks of ambition in your eyes with it, dancing in the small, earth-laden room. "You lick the flow of blood from the hole in your gums. Your smile is tinged in red." #HorrorWritersChat

"You rip out the tooth, its blood gleaming with opportunity. Beware: even in your dreams, you can't escape the rule of three." #HorrorWritersChat

I hand the bloody tooth to the black-robed man, who takes it and eats it, the bone crunching like a solid scream shattering into shards that fly back at me, lacerating my mind. In the pain of it, I see the future, as promised. But I see nothing of myself there. #horrorwriterschat

you rip out the tooth it's blood gleaming with opportunity, forever defanged, preventing mutiny, no longer red in tooth & claw the public shaming demands much more & so you pick up the pliers again and say 'open wide' to the accursed fiend. #HorrorWrittersChat

They would have to face the thing they fear most — themselves. I would make them sit across from their old selves and explain why they were wrong to be so hateful and hurtful. Then, they need to do the work of correcting that. No blood, all soul. #horrorwriterschat

Their mask. That’s the only thing painfull enough besides death. Let people see them as they really are. They won’t be able to look them in the eyes after that. #HorrorWritersChat

Make them buy me all the journals, pretty colored pens, and snacks all year long. If they refuse, then the annoyance hex will keep going. 🙃 #HorrorWritersChat

I'm pretty sure that after I subdue my enemies, they're either dead or wish they were. That's the consequence of letting fury or the Beast have its whole way. #HorrorWritersChat

For my previous two curses? Nothing, that just about settles it. Now in my ace wakwak story, it’s actually natural for most of her kind to tear themselves in half. It does not come natural to her. She’ll have to do it manually, to remove the asexually reproduced offspring too. #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat Q3: Serious answer: make billionaires give up all their money. Fun answer: Now that they are being hunted by the primordial wraiths of long-dead beasts, the only way out is to create new energy. We'll call them penance bikes, and they will spend their days cycling electricity.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 1: Pen name Victor K. Sanders from the rural South. I write stories inspired by old horror movies. The scariest curse is one that hurts your loved ones as much as you.

They have to inconvenience themselves for someone else. Such as taking a friend to the airport during rush hour traffic. Or going to an event even though they don't want to. But they would have to do it honestly. Doing it to get it out of the way is not enough to break the curse. #HorrorWritersChat

Their own hatred. How? I have no idea. Maybe by some way of bearing their soul to all. #horrorwriterschat

#HorrorWritersChat Q3: For a rich person to be free they would have given away at least half of their wealth, and I think doing 6 months community service in a low income school, and their kids would have to go there, seeing how hard it is to get educated with no money would be a good punishment.
