WORLD HORROR CONVENTION

If you're attending World Horror Convention in Phoenix this week (4/8-11), be sure to drop by my reading on Thursday at 3:30pm or the debut/signing of my short story collection, 100 Jolts: Shockingly Short Stories, outside the dealer's room on Saturday at Noon. I'll also be on two panels -- "Common Mistakes in Writing Horror" and "Dark Short Fiction" (unrelated topics, I assure you) -- and in the Mass Autograph gathering. Come on by.

Twisted Prompts for Sicko Writers

+ Describe a heart attack in first person viewpoint...one that occurs while the character is driving. + Write as if under duress. + The moon is full, but for some reason a lycanthrope is having enormous difficulties transforming. Dramatize. *** Instigation is a WEEKLY department in Hellnotes newsletter. If you publish something instigated by this department, let me know and I'll mention it here! Or if you're bold (and willing to forfeit electronic rights), post your response to a prompt at the new Goreletter weblog by clicking on the word "comments" below.
