A BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO HP LOVECRAFT - A guide by me to help people appreciate the writing of the master of the weird. beforewegoblog.com/a-beginners-... @beforewegoblog.bsky.social @ericmalikyte.bsky.social @davidniallwilson.com #books #horror #lovecraft #cthulhu #horrowriting #horrorwritingcommunity
Before the 19th century in Romanian folklore, vampires were generally peasants and more of an ugly pest that occasionally sired dhampyr than beautiful predator. My theory is Dracula and Carmilla both paid their authors to glam them up due to being nobles who could afford it. #horrorwritingcommunity

I changed the ending of Cthulhu Armageddon because I felt it was better to end the book on a dark but ambiguous note versus a more hopeful one. #writing #WIP #writingcommunity #horror #horrorwritingcommunity

This week's writing prompt will make you feel like crawling out of your body. #writingprompt #horrorwriting #horrorwritingcommunity
Dracula is fantastic because it's a novel about English women being corrupted by sexy foreigners and only saved by an American as well as Dutchman. Plus one of the women themselves. Obviously, an Irishman wrote it. #vampires #Dracula #horror #horrorwriting #horrorwritingcommunity
My horror novel, CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON, is a post-apocalypse Mythos one so I mix the ruins of the Old World with the surreal almost Dreamlike quality of the risen Great Old Ones' alien structures. #horror #horrorwriting #postapocalypse #horrorwritingcommunity
Of Beasts & Bones by @robinknabel.bsky.social has confirmed publication date and you can preorder the e-book now!
I can't wait for you to read my own work, 'The Collector'!

I'm currently writing a CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON novella and it was inspired by them exploring a river-based set of ruins that contain a great pyramid. #books #writing #horrorwritingcommunity #horror #cthulhu #lovecraft
Menagerie is so, so close to hitting its year-end sales goal! Such metrics are hardly my primary motivation, but it's undeniably awesome to see people engaging with the book. I appreciate you all!

Hit 50K on CTHULHU'S CANYON which is the 4th/5th (including the anthology) book in the CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON series. It should be what wraps up the series, at least barring novellas and short stories. #cthulhu #horrorwritingcommunity #horrorwriting #horror #lovecraft

We need an IT video game. It should have a bad ending where you feed the others to Pennywise.

It's not making anyone's Wrapped list this year, but apparently folks have already spent 6+ hours this month listening to Menagerie on Spotify? Hell yes! I'm very grateful.
Should be on Audible soon!

THE BOOKS OF CTHULHU series started with the Tales of the Al-Azif and Tales of Yog-Sothoth. They were expected to just be two standalone anthologies but it's since blossomed to a twelve volumes. I think it's because my friends love horror so much. #horrorwritingcommunity #cthulhu #indiebooks #books
The UK Ghost Story Festival in-person line up has been announced and look who is joining the Confirmed Speakers. 'We Are The Ghosts, Mister' is on how to write about ghost characters hiding their identity and their motivations.

Vampires never evolved. They just got new names.
Modern vampires are just succubi/incubi.
Old school vampires are now called zombies.

I found out that one of my books came was on a best seller list but got beaten out by another author by two or three copies. The author was Poppy Z. Brite. I'm like, "as a Nineties Goth, I am okay with this." #Goth #writing #darkfantasy #urbanfantasy #horror #horrorwriting #horrorwritingcommunity
A hill I will die on: Vampires should have more weaknesses not less. The sunlight, garlic, invitations, and other shit actually forces them to be clever with their powers. #horror #vampires #horrorwriting #horrorwritingcommunity
#StephenKing is someone I will never turn against because my dream was always to be a writer but I had no idea how to begin until I picked up this book. The best advice for any new author I've ever seen or read. #writing #books #author #horror #horrorwritingcommunity #writingcommunity
