The hooded figure that accompanied us to the Welcome to Night Vale live show was actually a Christmas present I’d made for my friend this past year. It’s ever proof that with some fleece, reference pictures, and imagination, you can really do anything. I ended up using fleece from Jo-Ann’s to do both the body … More Project: Plush Hooded Figure (Welcome to Night Vale)
To mix things up, I thought I’d talk a little bit about a project I did recently. The friend who introduced me to Welcome to Night Vale is also who I went to the live show with, and we decided that just showing up wouldn’t do. This is probably the closest I’ve ever gotten to … More Project: Desert Bluffs Outfit (Welcome to Night Vale)
It’s always cool when you get to experience something you’ve loved from the periphery up close and personal, and not too long ago I got to do just that. If you’re unfamiliar with the Welcome to Night Vale podcast, go listen. Listen right now. Start at the beginning and just lay back and enjoy the … More Inspirations: Welcome to Night Vale
I love it when authors stop by to talk writing and process with me, and it’s even better when they write a whole guest post themselves so I don’t have to do anything. This week’s guest is a dude I love hanging out with and we share a mutual love of certain 80’s vampire movies. … More Writing Prompts Saved my Writing Life by C. Bryan Brown
Here’s something a little lighter for your weekend…I’ve been trying to catch up on my TBR pile: library edition before my entire life savings goes to paying off overdue fees.

So…I’ve been a little evil and kidnapped a blog. Heh. All this week you can catch my guest posts on horroraddicts.net Some are my thoughts on horror writing, some are personal experiences, there are some excerpts there…all sorts of stuff. I’m putting up links to posts thus far, but the handy dandy interwebz people make … More Mwahaha – I Kidnapped a Blog!
I want to mix things up and share a sewing/costume/artsy project of mine at least once a month. I talk about my artistic life often enough, but I haven’t really shown a lot of it, so that needs to change. Although we’re into March, this seems suitable for both February and Women in Horror Month. … More February Project: Broken Heart Purse
So all in all, this has been an interesting WiHM 2015. I have to admit, going in I had mixed feelings – I usually do. While I love having a chance to explore the genre I dearly love and am fascinated by, and I truly do feel that we need to explore gender roles within … More If only I was as Hot as Stephen King: WiHM 2015 Thoughts

Today’s Women in Horror guest is Susan Hicks Wong. I love hearing about people’s life experiences and how it relates to their writing, and she provides a post today that’s poetic, poignant, and a little unnerving in its intimacy. No wonder I like it. You can find Susan’s work in State of Horror: North Carolina … More Women in Horror: Susan Hicks Wong
