#HorrorWritersChat Q3:

Local Entrepreneur Claims, "Missing employees are unrelated to nearby crossroad."

No worries, you'll have to post about yours when it's ready too. :D

It's sitting at 2nd draft right now. Probably a Halloween release, but I will definitely post about it on here when it hits announcement time. 😀

Double twist: Death is only the beginning...of writer's block!

I'm the same way. Even when I write in other genres, horror always finds its way in.

I mean, if I was a #multi-billionaire with many pet #velociraptors, I guess I wouldn't NEED to write #horror anymore (at least not for money). But I probably would still WANT to write horror. #horrorwriterschat

That would be the dream, though. You don't need to write about monsters if you can make them! I wasn't expecting Jurassic Park to be the answer, but I think you nailed it. 😆

That does sound pretty good...could always write fantasy, I guess. :/

#HorrorWritersChat Q2:

Tough one, writing horror has been a part of me since I was a little kid. I guess I could give it up for some incredibly positive global movement/change.

Or I suppose if I fell into some tragic/ironic curse scenario.

Sadly, I couldn't find a GIF from the Futurama bit. :(

Hi, #Horrorwriterschat!

I'm JL, and I write spooky books for tweens!

The most usual place to find horror inspiration? I'd say middle school, but they're pretty scary!

Hello, #HorrorWritersChat, I am a sad monster what writes disturbed fictions and my most unusual source of inspiration was my own creaking bones, I think.

Hi. I’m Ian. I’m writing Barbatachtian 7. I found inspiration in a bus stop in my twenties, I was very drunk. #HorrorWritersChat Q1

Hello, I’m Kimberly. Unusual place I’ve found inspiration… a hike I took when I was ten with a church group.
Became “To the Mountaintop” in Next Door.
#horrorwriterschat Q1

Question 1:

J.D. Buffington here. Learning that the Appalachian mountains are part of one range that broke apart from Pangea, and that the Scottish Highlands are part of the same range, I wondered, “What if something had a tunnel?” Then I learned about Erdstalls…

Hello! Karen here. Scandinavian, author of various fantasy novels and horror short stories.

I guess my most unusual source of inspiration has been my garden 😅 Dirt You Shall Become was crafted out of the frustration of gardening and spookiness of mulch and bugs.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 1: Progressive nerd writing nostalgic horror. And I once wrote a creepypasta based around my study sessions in college.

Hi everyone. I'm Tom Coombe, author of short, weird horror stories mostly set in eastern Pennsylvania. My most unusual bit of inspiration came from this scene on the Simpsons.

Sup, #HorrorWritersChat it's Yanni back with another week of fun. I write horror of all types and shapes, and sometimes the voices in my head let's me get a little dirty.

Most of my inspiration for horror comes from the messed up dreams I have, but once I got an idea in a laundromat.

I'm Amber, a horror and dark fiction writer from central Maine. I write all kinds of horror, most with cults or ghosts. Current WIP takes inspiration from my time as a library kid and my teenage babysitting gig, but I feel like that's pretty standard story fodder.

#HorrorWritersChat

My name is Martin Shannon and I'm a rare book author. I write word-processor-to-shelf, artisanal, non-GMO, organic dark fantasy and horror imaginings.

Most unusual place for inspiration? Watching my fingers melt to the top of a fiery toaster...

#HorrorWritersChat

Hello! I'm Rebecca Cantrell and I write a lot of dark things--mysteries, thrillers, and horror. I try to write bright happy things sometimes and it always goes dark. I found inspiration for a chapter in BLOOD INFERNAL at a cheery Christmas market in Berlin. It got dark. Hmmm... #horrorwriterschat

Big time gloopy. Weirdly though, they reminded me of globsters...I can't stop writing about ocean monsters.

Hi. I'm Anna. I mostly write cosmic and eco-horror. I once wrote a story based on a very depressing fusion cuisine all-you-can-eat buffet restaurant in Wimbledon. #HorrorWritersChat

Hi, I'm Beverley, a character driven dark fiction writer from the UK specialising in atmosphere and the build-up of dread.

The idea for the creature in The Ruin of Delicate Things came when I was watching a nature documentary with a preying mantis 😈 #HorrorWritersChat

#horrorwriterschat:

Q1: Hello. I’m WakahisaSensei. I usually write philosophical fiction with elements of horror/sci-fi/fantasy. I do have two horror side projects though.

Most unusual place I’ve found for horror inspiration? Works that totally lack horror, and imagining how they’d respond to-

I hear that one! I also have a fast-food WIP.

Hoi! I am J. Neira, cozy horror author, rural Minnesotan hicklib, & slush reader for Graveside Press!
The most unusual place I found inspiration for a horror work might me in fast-food places? They're not usually associated with horror, but I write a lot of fast-food horror.

Heyhey #HorrorWritersChat! I'm Emma, I write paranormal horror and the most unusual place I got inspiration from for a horror work was a carpark. Struggled all day with writing - read horror, watched horror, nothing. Went out for a day to eat ice cream, walked back to the car, and it just hit me.

I played the hell out of Warhammer: Total War, and I really get it. It's so easy to get lost in the narratives that emerge from games like that.

Hello! I am Matt, pen name MG Mason and I write mixed genre fantasy and horror.

I once had a flash of inspiration for a ghost story set during the Anglo-Saxon invasions while playing Rome: Total War. The WIP is little more than three sentences of ideas right now though.
