Valkyrie Kerry on Writing and Sanity

-
  What is sanity? That is the question posed in 'Equilibrium.' what is sanity, as opposed to insanity. As an author, my writing initially examined emotion as a fine line between health and illness. This question, combined with a personal love of the horror genre, guided my work into the realms of horror and all of its sub-genres. I could discuss this further, but this anthology relates directly to life during the pandemic. Rather than examine the horrors of the pandemic, I would rather tell an uplifting story in this blog. Let's shift the bleak moods of late to a genuine fairytale. Writing, for me, is more than a career; it is a vocation. As such I produce work across multiple media platforms. My primary genre, as discussed, is horror. In April 2020, one month after lockdown, my largest work; a book called 'Horrotica' was released and subsequently became an international best-seller. During the month of May I was engaged in book promotions across most social media. ...

Happy Anniversary!

 It's been a full year since we published THE GATES OF CHAOS.  A lot has happened for a lot of us. Tim Eagle (who published his story as Jim Falcon) has taken the publishing world by storm.  He's written 9 different books (10 if you count his combined edition of the three stories related to Stevats, including the one published in TGOC).  Tim's on fire! He is publishing on Godless and on Amazon. James Miles was the first writer to get his story done for TGOC.  James has done well too, publishing a novella and a short novelette, also both with Amazon and Godless.   Jesse D'Angelo has written and published three novels and a short story collection over the past year.  Jesse has been another very productive writer first published in TGOC.

Wayne Hartshorn on the Resilience of the Horror Short

  Out of all the books I own, the ones I've read the most, the ones I cherish and will never, ever part with, are a stack of beaten and dusty horror anthologies. Some of the covers are well done, stylish pieces, professionally illustrated with pictures of werewolves, ghouls and witches. Sharp graphics that juxtapose against the murky depths of the deep blacks. Others are cheap and garish things, leering clowns and vibrant blood. It's quite a collection, there's stories by Shirley Jackson, Robert Bloch, essays on the werewolf trials and a hundred others bits and pieces that I read when I was a kid in Benalla. That's where I first read most of them, in books I borrowed from the small catholic school library and later from the larger one in the town, books I'd read and return, one or two of the stories would stick, sometimes I thought I'd imagined them when I recalled them, but years later I'd find a horror anthology in a second hand place, read through, it...
