Classics are fine. I like deep dive folkloric ghosts, and things outside the norm because I like learning about different cultures, and unique experiences are more fun. #horrorwriterschat

Listen to the Symposium’s finest vocalist, as their tenor bends the living into unnatural angles and swivels them into the air! Tell us, what ghosts do you prefer? Of the folkloric tradition, or those invented by authors? And why?

Question Three

Art by Jelle Husson, featuring a haunted monastery of many sharp-tipped towers scraping at the midnight sky. The largest is in the centre of the structure’s roof, whose walls are painted white. The monastery is located above a hilly terrain of dark stone and dark green moss. A stony, twisting road leads to the monastery.

It is always a delight to see our violinists perform! How the living bend their splintering bones as they float above us all! Tell us, our ghostly compatriots – which of us are better? Of the folkloric kind? Or invented by our shadowy creators?

Liminal is a fantastic word! I love it 🥰

Whoops, didn’t read the actual question. All these still apply, and maybe add retail/doctors office when empty. I’ve worked my share of retail and love the ambiance of alone at night. A coffee shop ghost would be welcome

Liminal spaces like empty gas stations, coffee shops always, woods, and cemeteries the rare chance I can. #horrorwriterschat

Now, let us begin! Let the flutes bleat and the trumps blare, snatching all the souls of the living away! What are your favourite haunts? Mausoleums? Lavish estates? What secrets do their wraiths protect within?

Question Two

Ah, the performance has begun! Behold the souls of the living darting into the flutes and trumpets! Now, as you sip your ectoplasmic wine, tell us – what are your favourite locations for ghosts? And why?

Be welcomed to the ethereal music hall! A stringed aperitif is in order… do tell the Symposium what do you write, from where… and what IS, indeed, your wraithful visage for tonight?

Question One

Come in, come in! The Phantasmal Symposium has just begun! Settle in the ruined music hall, and tell us – what do you write, from where, and in what ghostly visage have you arrived at our askewed doorstep?

It's #bannedbooksweek!

We all know the famous banned books. LOLITA. 1984. CATCHER.

What are some lesser known banned books that need support? Especially with living authors who still write.

Just a note that there will be a call for submissions for readers to submit photos of themselves in front of lighthouses for the Southern Reach coffee table book, but please don't be preemptive as the guidelines for what's needed will be precise. For example, poor Lowry here got it wrong. No masks.

Cover reveal!!!

The Hospital at the End of the World will be released on February 3, 2026. This HarperCollins sci-fi medical thriller will be my first novel!

It’s a near-future exploration of AI’s impact on medicine and my own return to the joys, fears, triumphs, and horrors of becoming a doctor.

As I make my way through Swords in the Shadows, I must shout out Osanobua’s Garden by Justin C. Key. First work of the author I’ve read. Fantastic fantasy and horror and worldbuilding.

“He’s not doing anything.”

Certainly looks from this snippet like it was completely unprovoked

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Hey pals. I have a friend right now who's going through it with Crohn's Disease. After putting her in the hospital, she now needs a surgery that they're demanding 30% up front for or they will cancel it. Her husband's income is now at the mercy of the government shutdown.

She really needs help. 🙏
