Ooooo, I’m intrigued. Haha!
Well, whatever you end up doing, I hope you’re happy doing it. At the end of the day, that’s what’s important.

I’ll happily donate any proceeds from book sales from now till the end of March (I’ll probably also throw in £50 on top).
I know times are hard, but if you can spare a few quid, I know it would mean a lot.

Thanks for hosting a great #HorrorWritersChat! 😊 Following some new authors and got plenty of inspiration!
A friend of mine is raising money for Bliss, a charity that provides help and support for premature and sick babies. And anyone who knows me will know that it’s a cause close to my heart.
I’ll add it to the “buy if I find it cheap in a second hand bookshop” list.
I’ll try and watch Nope after I finish some freelance work (which I’m supposed to be doing now haha).
Your pulse shudders to a stop. The dark agony of death is replaced by a hollow, bright white nothing. There is no pain. There is no sound. In all directions, there is… nothing.

It really is. There’s an afterword that explains how big Hell is, and it’s terrifying.

Not sure if “favourite” is the right word for it, but Hell in “A Short Stay in Hell” has stayed with me ever since I read it.
A place so bafflingly large and repetitive it’s impossible to comprehend.

Oooo, good question…
You know what, thinking about it now, no, I don’t use dreamscapes. The environment in my stories are real and mundane, and the weirdness comes from the body horror, or mental breakdown that’s sure to follow.

Hey all, it’s been a while since I’ve done one of these!
I’m Stephen, and I write mostly psychological and body horror.
As a child, I had a reoccurring dream where I was in a cage being attacked by a gorilla. Sounds silly now, but at the time, it was awful.
#HorrorWritersChat
I’ve been away from socials for a little while and this is the first I’m seeing this. Saddened to hear it, but totally understandable.
Just bought your 2 novels on Lulu and will be proud to put them on my bookshelf.
Wishing you the best of luck in whatever your future holds!
Yeah, I think it’ll be next on mine, too.
17.02.2026 12:11 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Tempted to go with Sharp Objects, but I’d take a recommendation, too. lol.

Same. I hate it. 😂
I tried to deactivate it, but I think you can only make it marginally less awful.
Yesterday, I finished reading The Book of Witching by @cjcookebooks.bsky.social
Reading the editor’s note at the end turns this book from a good one to one that will be hard to forget.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thanks Mary for a great #HorrorWritersChat!
If any of y’all fancy a short story or four, here’s my author page on Amazon: www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Steph...
Thank you for another lovely week, Mary!
Today, I'm not going to promote myself. Instead, I wish to promote this hashtag's founder, @chaoticauthor.online, who needs all our love these days. Do check out his works 💝

👀 one of my favourites (from a WIP) is the vampire that skins people in order to “collect” their tattoos… if he’s knocking on my door, I’m in trouble. 🤣
#HorrorWritersChat
I’ve had some very random sources of inspiration; a thumbnail to a YouTube video, the outro to a music video, a quote from a movie, the name of a song.
Can’t think of 4 for a single story or WIP, though… 😬
