#HorrorWritersChat Question 4: "Took them long enough," I answered.

Does she have an alternative?

#HorrorWritersChat Question: When they embrace their dark side they don't change, they realize who they were all along.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 2: All my characters have one of three dark flaws: seeking power because they think they know what's best, refusing power because they don't trust themselves, or seeking power because they don't care what's best.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 1: Penname Victor K. Sanders. I write horror based on old movies. And, honestly, I think most people's dark side comes down to a desire for power, it just takes many forms.

It is time to end the billionaire class. They created this. They rob us daily. They own our lives and livelihoods through technology. They own the politicians, and they stoke this violence to distract us from ever realizing that we outnumber them 300,000 to one.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 4: Noll, Anya, and Maria looked at each other. Could they really afford to fail National Hugging Day again?...then they remembered none of them were U.S. citizens and moved on.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 3: None of my protagonists would be caught dead in sweatpants.

This is why Doggie Heaven is also Squirrel Hell!

Q2: Definitely International Squirrel Day. Those little stinkers are plotting things for sure. Could also combine it with Granola Bar Dayโ€”squirrels getting bloody over the Nature's Valley. Raiding Costco en masse, tearing out throats, shredding faces...

#HorrorWritersChat It was International Squirrel Appreciation Day! My favorite holiday! Everyone's favorite holiday! Because if we didn't appreciate them, they might do it again...

How do you define Cosmic Horror? I never tried to get too specific in my definition until I started asking myself if my writing qualified for Cosmic Horror Monthly, lol.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 1: Penname Victor K. Sanders. I write horror inspired by old movies. And...I don't know a favorite international day. Halloween?

Trump Backlash Is Fueling A Leftward Culture Shift Trump's disastrous immigration crackdown will go down as a self-own for the ages

Trump thought immigration was his superpower. Instead, itโ€™s fueling a leftward cultural shiftโ€”and a full-blown backlash he canโ€™t control.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 4: I don't think I've ever done a non-supernatural antagonist.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 3: While I don't pretend to be on his level, I tend to use a lot of flashbacks and internal monologues to develop characters and build dread, kind of like Stephen King.

Problem with that is creating a different world that's scarier than ours.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 2: The world I've been writing stories isn't simply a place where monsters are real. It's a place where they're provably real, but most people are too lazy to look at the evidence. So, I violate the assumption that they're even bothering to hide.

14.01.2026 19:27 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 16    ๐Ÿ” 8    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 1

Better to be basic than get too full of yourself.

#HorrorWritersChat Penname Victor K. Sanders. I write horror inspired by old horror movies.

My latest story was inspired by Hills Like White Elephants by Hemmingway, mixed with a lot of Robert E. Howard and a touch of The Cats of Ulthar by Lovecraft.

Tweet from โ€œBest Of Minnesotaโ€ @BestPixMN:

Minnesota troops defeated and captured a confederate flag from Virginia troops during the Civil War. To this day, Virginia keeps asking for it back and Minnesota keeps telling those losers they can't have it

Good week for a reminder about the confederate battle flag Minnesota refuses to return to the south

#HorrorWritersChat Question 4: Most commonly by injuries. Sometimes their bodies change. Their souls, very much the same.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 3: If we define "sacrifice" as something given up voluntarily, my characters rarely do that. If they did they wouldn't be in the horror story they found themselves in.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 2: Usually their tolerance for bullshit goes way down.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 1: Pen name Victor K. Sanders. I write stories based on old horror movies. And with my wife expecting, I would never want to give up the part of me that already loves my child.

#HorrorWritersChat Question 4: With a heavy heart, Noll laid aside the pistol Anya had given him before he left. He didn't need it, there were many ways to take a life. But, he missed the girl.
