Two Free Scholarships to Dark Dreams

EDIT: By the way, the two winners were picked and their emails sent off to Tananarive and Steven! Congrats, Micah Southwood and Katharine Dow! Expect emails soon, I wager.


HEY. You. Horror-writing-in-training!

Courtesy of Tananarive Due (the “Queen of Black Horror” and author of the truly vital The Reformatory) and Steven Barnes, I’m giving away two scholarships to Dark Dreams: Writing Horror That Kills.

(You can learn more about the course here: www.fearmasters.com)

This is a 3-hour intensive on how to craft haunting horror fiction. How to write horror that lets characters take the lead? What’s the plot framework look like? How the heck do they do it, and how do you do it?

(This class will be live both on Zoom and in person in Southern California.)

Way to be a potential winner —

Drop in the comments below.

Just tell me two things:

a) What’s your favorite horror novel from the last ten years?

b) What are you reading right now (doesn’t have to be horror!)?

Do this by Thursday, noon EST, and I’ll approve all comments and pick two random winners from the commenters to receive those scholarships.

Easy-peasy, blood-a-squeezy.

Just make sure that your account here is using an email address someone can use to reach you; otherwise, you won’t know that you won!

Get it? Got it? Rock on.
