It's not much of a milestone, but I'm hitting roughly the halfway point of my MG zombie tale now. Creepy things are about to happen!
Glad things are going well for you
Enough doom and gloom for once! Friends, tell me your good news! Let's celebrate our milestones together!
I'll start. People are enjoying my books, I have a lot to look forward to these next few months, and my life is pretty stable despite what the world throws at me!
Sounds fun, I will do my best to make it!
Good day, #HorrorWritersChat! Spring is just around the corner, and at this time, I'm happy to be hosting tonight's event once again!
I hope you won't mind that this is going to be a self-indulgent one tonight! Because it involves a subject I specialise in and love.
The catharsis of Action Horror.
Head's up!!
ARC's available for this MISS MARPLE meets THE SHINING eco-folk horror coming out Sept 2026. Contact me or get your copy from booksprout.co or booksirens.com and soon on NetGalley (publisher Independent Book Publishers Assoc). Thanks for your honest review! #folkhorror #bookreviews #horror #gothic

Thanks for another great #HorrorWritersChat!
If anyone's interested, all this month I'm running a showcase for morbid art and fiction and their inspirations. There are daily prompts and weekly chat questions, and writers are very much encouraged to use both to self-promote.
Phengaris, surrounded by a symmetrical pattern of butterflies and beetles
Thanks, Eryn. LOVED this topic.
Phengaris, takes its title from a very innocuous little blue butterfly, which parasitizes ants in a fiendishly inventive way.
A great deal of the horror is about arthropods, but also the ways humans can parasitism each other. #HorrorWritersChat

Thanks Eryn! #HorrorWritersChat I am beyond honored that my short story "The Static Man" will appear in the anthology dedicated to the memory of our friend Matt Mason, "The Shadows That We Carry." I cannot wait for you all to read it.
#HorrorWritersChat in the mood for something Gothic this spring? How about a story about a maid who goes to work for a mad scientist? Think Frankenstein and Crimson Peak had a baby together. Available in paperback, ebook and audio book.

Thanks Eryn
This is always fun
Check out my books
Any one of them
Hell, all of them
I need to know if I'm writing tripe or not
They're thrilling
They're funny
And as my dear departed grandma would say
They're proper filth!

If you liked my whale answer to Q2, please check out my poem “Aqueous” in Mausoleums of the Eye and other poems. I channeled all of my fear of whales into that piece!

Nothing of my own to promote today, but I did quite like @erynmccee.bsky.social 's novel FORBIDDEN TEA. Charming, well mannered, but oh so deadly. Justice delivered with biscuits. #horrorwriterschat
This week, #HorrorWritersChat, I want to highlight a Kickstarter I’m doing for a bank robbery horror anthology! If we meet our funding goal, there will be some spots open for submissions as well! Appreciate any shares and support!

#HorrorWritersChat Thanks, Eryn. Cool questions.
Is it ghosts haunting us, or are we haunting the dead?

Thanks for the great questions, Eryn. Love a creature feature!
With the theme in mind I'd like to showcase my short story The Ritual: www.patreon.com/posts/ritual...
The image showcases the animal phobia in play, haha.
This story is free to read and getting a sequel soon!
Thanks for another great #HorrorWritersChat As always you can check out my horror on my website: dangerouswhenbored.com/collections/...
Seems like a perfect day for OUT OF CURIOSITY AND HUNGER, a short creature feature novel I would describe as The Very Hungry Caterpillar x National Geographic, but make it horror. #HorrorWritersChat
www.amazon.com/Out-Curiosit...
Thank you Eryn!
I am also very excited to be included in the #HorrorWritersChat
Anthology with my story "Car Crash."
My writing has improved immensely in the last year because of this group. Thank you so much! 💙
Full cover of A Fragile Thing. Back is black and white version of front. Front shows a caped figure walking away from view against a backdrop of tall gothic buildings. A golden glow from lights spill out against the dark night. Blurb on back: Victorian London. Isaac Bercow is a man with great aspirations, nothing to lose, and an offer he can't refuse. Determined to make society notice - and believe in - his powers of mesmerism, Isaac finds himself caught in a trap of deceit, danger, and diabolical dealings. The mind is a fragile thing, and fragile things are easily broken.
Thank you! This was fun, even with the slugs 😅
Pre-order is up for my new gothic horror, A Fragile Thing.
1888. Whitechapel. A predatory hypnotist seeks to climb the social ladder. In doing so, he lets the monsters out ...

Cover of Revolve by Kimberly Davis Basso (horror shorts, Door Volume II). Inverted glass marble reflecting an inverted wave on a beach in shades of blue. Cover of Next Door by Kimberly Davis Basso underwater infinity door with a woman swimming up towards the surface. The words Welcome to the Neighborhood float above the waves.
Thanks Erin! Since we’re talking wildlife today, my collection Next Door has tentacled terrors and earwigs by the thousands, and Revolve includes many critters in those stories, like the lovely, meaty snails I mentioned. 🐌🐌🐌.

The Shadows That We Carry, an upcoming horror anthology which will raise money for charity. Cover depicts an out of control fire surrounding a smiling face
Thanks Eryn, really fun questions!
The cover of upcoming #HorrorWritersChat anthology The Shadows That We Carry has been revealed; for anyone who doesn't know it's in memory of a beloved #writingcommunity member and proceeds will go to Macmillan, so it's going to be a very special book
So tiny and pretty. You'd never suspect a hummingbird
