DO YOU LIKE HORROR?
I do.
I read THE EXORCIST when I was about… 11? Couldn’t put it down. Followed it with THE OMEN and ROSEMARY’S BABY. Ha! Could be that I have a proclivity for devil-horror, but in the 70s there was also JAWS, and what is JAWS if not horror? And WHERE ARE THE CHILDREN? OMGosh, that one! Sooooo creepy.

My love of horror is one of the reasons why I run GRAVELIGHT PRESS, my horror imprint. We do an odd-year (of course) anthology, that includes the BEST in horror short stories, some of which are mine. I believe the 2019 issue has my reimagining of Bloody Mary, (My version is called Mary Wu) which I performed for Horrorgasm that year. If you have Kindle Unlimited, it’s always free to read.
And one of the horror authors I currently find myself returning to over and over again is R. David Fulcher. He runs SAMSARA: the magazine of suffering, and you can hear a great interview with him here.
David is doing a series on great and classic horror novels (novels not written by him) that you might want to read, to find your next great read. Today he has tackled CHILDREN OF THE CORN.
So, find out about David. He’s a great guy, amazing horror writer, and also really interesting in general.
