One last guest post we have to get in, but I wanted to include a piece by my friend and fellow NBP author Zillah Anderson! *** Horror in the Everyday So often we think of horror involving the foreign or the supernatural. Vampires, zombies, werewolves, ghosts, demons, giant animals, monsters…even the killers we encounter a … More Women and Horror: Horror in the Everyday by Zillah Anderson
I wanted to make sure that my co-conspirator got a chance to get in on the horror discussion! This post is by S.H. Roddey, a very talented author that you don’t want to meet in a dark alley <g> The Subtle Approach So I’ve been promising Selah a blog post for over a month. I’m … More Women and Horror: The Subtle Approach by S.H. Roddey
And so we come to the post that I’ve been dancing around for a long, long time. I wasn’t sure if I was going to open my mouth and go here, and I wasn’t even sure that I’m qualified enough to do so. Like everything else, all I really have are my opinions and how … More Women in Horror: We are Not Meant to be Labeled Victims
Today Ellie Potts is back to share some tidbits from some of the stories in her book Flight of Delusions! This is a nice little inclusion as we wrap up Women in Horror month, since a lot of these stories fall into one dark category or another. If these bits are any indication, this is … More Excerpts from Flights of Delusion by Ellie Potts

Before we begin, now that I definitely have your attention, I want to preface that I’m talking about sex in horror with this post. Although a lot of writers have horror elements, we won’t wander into True Blood or Anita Blake or Dresden territory (if I do it’ll be really quick, I swear), because technically … More Women in Horror: Let’s Talk About Sex
Now that I have your attention… So I’m sitting on my couch taking a break from working on a manuscript. I’ve avoided working on this post and others like it all day, but after getting other things crossed off the to-do list (and some copious chocolate), I’ve decided I’m going to go for it. I’ve … More Women in Horror: Getting Naked
So one of the questions I’ve been asked off and on, whether on Twitter or at panels I’ve mediated on the topic of women in horror is one that slightly surprises me. “Is there really a need to even address the need for recognizing women in the horror genre? There really isn’t a problem, is … More Women and Horror: Is There a Problem or is it Just the Genre?
Rie Sheridan Rose was kind enough to put together some words about horror, and what a collection of words she’s put together! I love it when people are so enthusiastic about their passion for writing, but also the darker genres. It’s nice to find like-minded gals who aren’t afraid to say they love writing horror! … More Women and Horror: Rie Sheridan Rose
I wanted to take a look at another type of gal who we find in some horror stories and movies. By innocents I don’t necessarily mean victims. These are the women who are a little more reactionary. Maybe they’re prey to whatever is going on, maybe the events help them to find a stronger part … More Women in Horror: Innocents
