Seeking Contributions from Artists with Dark Aesthetics!

ATTENTION AUTHORS, FILMMAKERS, AND OTHER ARTISTS!

If you work with horror, the supernatural, the surreal, or other unquestionably “dark” aesthetics in prose fiction, poetry, film, or other media, I probably want to host you for a guest post or interview.

GUEST POST? I am open to suggestions, but a guest post would likely be about a distinctive angle on your work. Promote freely, but avoid mere plot summaries and plaudits. Examples: How does the work challenge its (sub)genre? What’s compelling about its inspiration? You’re a creative. Be creative!

INTERVIEW? Send me (publishable) descriptions of the one or two work(s) you want to focus on, along with a brief bio, and I’ll send you 5-10 questions that I’ve attempted to tailor to you and your work. The goal is to promote you and to find angles of interest a little sharper than typical blurbs.

Posts should run 1,000 words or fewer. I might reject a piece for poor writing or excessive length. I don’t intend to interfere with style or content, but I will edit for grammar, etc., and except in rare cases, I won’t seek author approval for my edits. R-rated language is fine, but I reserve the right to reject a piece for using hate speech and related material. Otherwise, I want to accept everything I can.

I do not pay. I do not charge. This site does not sell ads or otherwise generate income. I do provide sales links; if you’re a guest, I hope you’ll provide sales links. My goal is to make connections and share a promotional space that I’ve just invested in updating and don’t want to keep underusing.

If you’re interested, contact me about your interests, and we’ll go from there. I hope to hear from you!
