Hartmouth Horrors

This Monday morning, my mind is on the fantastic Kingdom Horror Collective, the writers’ group I’ve been helping to set up these past few months. It was finally launched on Friday and I’m ready to crow about it now. First, a few words on the group and our ethos. We are six British authors united by our love of gritty horror with a focus on integrity, honesty, and the bravery needed to tackle tricky topics regardless of the fact some readers might be offended.

And that’s my penny’s worth for today. Until next week, happy writing to you all.
