Update on my mini capybara bungalow project. I added lighting, tiles, and some greenery, working my way forward. It’s looking pretty rough right now, but I’m trusting the process. #miniatures #roombox #miniatureartist

"Do You Believe in Miracles" by Wils Hosken “Do you believe in miracles?” What? “I said, do you believe in miracles?” It asked again, its voice hollow and vacant, as if its throat was down a long tunnel, where it could only speak in...

Our next story begs the following question: If you woke up to find a strange entity in your house that asked you if you believed in miracles, what would you say?

I do as much research as I can. Sometimes I spend too much time going down rabbit holes, and after all that only a tiny percentage actually ends up in the story.

I’ve written nonfiction, thrillers, romance. I wrote an Indiana Jones-style adventure (it’s shelved right now but I’ve thought of maybe reworking it). I journal everyday.

Hi #HorrorWritersChat ! I write horror and sci-fi horror.

This week I watched Thrash 🦈 on Netflix (it was silly but fun) and I’m currently reading GIRL DINNER by Olivie Blake. I’m enjoying it so far.

The secret movie at my theater tonight was Normal. I knew nothing about this film going in, and it was so fun! Everyone in the theater was reacting to the wild twists and chaos. This is what I love about going to the movies! 🎥

A monster terrorized her family when she was a child.

Years later...it's come back.

This time it's after her son.

I recently started back with my writing group after a long hiatus. I missed hanging out with other writers, reading their work, and learning from them. I always leave meetings inspired and energized, and feeling not so alone as a writer.

The techniques I use the most are sensory details, setting, and my character’s internal dialogue.

There is usually overlap in my favorite stories, like The Babadook movie, and Whalefall by Daniel Kraus. I just saw Project Hail Mary last night and the isolation the main character felt physically and mentally was so intense.

Hi everyone, I write horror and dark sci-fi.

COLD ETERNITY by S. A. Barnes is one of my favorite books that features isolation. It’s about a woman who takes a job as a custodian on a cryo ship. It’s so creepy.

Who would like a tiny PALMETTO BOY book?

I'll 🐌 mail a mini book to the first 15 people who like or comment. They're handmade and you can't open or read them, but they are very cute. 📚 I'll DM winners April 12th. U.S. addresses please.

A progress pic of the “bungalows” I’m making to display the miniature capybara figurines a friend gave me.

I’m almost done painting trim and designs, and then I can move on to lighting, flooring, plants 🪴 and disco ball 🪩 The vision is coming together!

I stare at my exposed ulna bone. They want me to fashion a key out of it. Using my teeth, watching myself as if from a distance and numb to the pain, I gnaw the end to a lethal jagged point, open the lock, and fight my way out.

I think imprisonment is a primal fear. Being trapped, helpless, lost in the dark, or completely dependent on, or at the mercy of someone, who might not have your best interests in mind, with no way out, is so scary. And then you have your mind racing in dark places.
