Special Callout for Women in Horror (WiH) Month!

Happy #WomeninHorrorMonth — celebrating women in the genre, be they writers, reviewers, editors, publishers, movie makers, etc.

I'll add to this each day, but there are many more than 28. Follow, bookmark, either way, come on in… the women are dark and lovely. 🖤☠🔪#WiHM pic.twitter.com/dTCzbBQrVR

Holy wow! It was so nice to wake up to this lovely list, which features work from lots of friends, 4 pieces from Nightmare, and mind-bogglingly enough, a novella by me.https://t.co/AjbincqBjm

Happy people are enjoying the ARC’s of Slice of Paradise/Beach Bodies from @DarklitPress.
My story ‘The Scorching’ is included in the Beach Bodies volume, inspired by slasher and Italian giallo flicks. It’s a touch bonkers, like myself. Excited for people to read these books! pic.twitter.com/8fGiCBfJcP

@TimeOutLondon📍Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá, Colombia

This fully-functioning Roman Catholic church has been carved beneath 200 metres of salt, rock and minerals. The light filters through it magnificently, filling the chambers and tunnels with an almost neon-like haze of blues and purples https://t.co/2ReUdzfWsN
