I have nothing to promote aside from REPLICA.

So here's a (cool) moodboard/video I compiled for it!

In REPLICA my protagonist is her own antagonist. In one side she actively sabotages the other, a friction between her ambition and upbringing.

#HorrorWritersChat
Horror is known for having both natural and supernatural antagonists, like the landscape or a ghostly presence.

Q4 #HorrorWritersChat

In your current WIP or latest published horror work, who or what antagonises your protagonist?

My writing in REPLICA, explores the horror of wasted devotion. I focus on the bitterness of my protagonist striving for perfection while being abandoned by the entity that was supposed to lead her.

The fear comes from the realization:

You sacrificed everything for nothing.

Q3 #HorrorWritersChat

How does your writing style seek to instill fear, disgust, or otherwise unsettle your readers?

[See an example from Cynthia Pelayo in the graphic]

In REPLICA, the horror is heavenly abandonment. When the source of healing power fails, the terrifying reality sets in: God has stopped listening. A lifetime of devotion poured into a void, leaving only absolute, silent isolation.

“Horror comes from a violation of what characters perceive to be reality.” - Writing in the Dark by Tim Waggoner

Example: a haunted house violates the assumption that we are alone in our homes.

Q2 #HorrorWritersChat
Which perceived realities do you utilise in your horror writing?
January 14, 2026 at 9:07 PM
hello! i'm rey, and i'm currently writing a religious horror story titled REPLICA.

one of my biggest influences was the movie SAINT MAUD! plus the strangeness of BUNNY and the bleakness of DIABLO IV (not really a horror but close enough)

#HorrorWritersChat
Welcome to #HorrorWritersChat

i dont want to spoil too much, but my mc desires the ultimate form of perfection regarding her healing ability to the point that she is willing to forcefully summon the divine with occult practice even though it is not permitted in catholicism.

#AwesomeCharacters #WriteSky #WritingCommunity
Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

Let’s talk about dangerous goals and ambitions.

Do any of your characters wish for something that would destroy/hurt them if they actually got it?

Do they know this? Do the people around them?

the first character that my MC met was a little child who had never known god until she had preached about the word.

which i started my chapter with...

“Will God condemn me to Hell if I did not know of His existence?”

#AwesomeCharacters
Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

I had several requests for more side character questions! So, let’s talk about the first side character your MC meets on page.

Are they friend or foe? A stranger? Do they stick around or are they fleeting?

#JanuaryWorldbuilders the existence of other religions aside from catholicism! its kind of a plot hole (maybe not) but i want the story to be catholic centric!
#JanuaryWorldbuilders, good day! In worldbuilding, sometimes we get deep into figuring out how things work because we want to explain it to the reader. Today, I ask you for the opposite: what is something that you intend to leave mysterious? What doesn't get explained?

hi! im rey, and im working on a story set in a fictional island in venice called pax, a hub for catholicism and one of the most sacred places second only to vatican!
Welcome to a new year of worldbuilding! Let's kick off this year with Day 1 of #JanuaryWorldbuilders in which I ask you: tell me about yourself and the world(s) you're building. Just a general overviews. We'll get into the weeds throughout the year

#DecemberWorldbuilders, friends, how have your felt about your writing in general this year? Did you write as much as you wanted to? Do you *like* your writing? Or does this question make you look at your manuscript in despair?
December 30, 2025 at 12:48 PM

i always try to imagine them first, and then i go to picrew and use a bunch of character makers until i find the perfect one!
Happy Friday!! We made it!

Writers: If you imagine your characters, how do you visualize them? In a certain art style? Celebrity face claims? Or do you imagine nothing at all?
