I wrote about Daniel Tam-Claiborne's novel, TRANSPLANTS and how intimacy and connection (and sex) can make fantastic things happen in fiction.

I wrote about Amanda Lee Koe's phenomenal SISTER SNAKE, (and couldn't stop myself from a light musing on fairy tales because you know me).

These gargoyles aren’t worried about explaining themselves to a human reader; they’re just trying to survive.
I wrote about Tara Campbell's fantastic CITY OF DANCING GARGOYLES and an opening that unsettles.

Here's me writing about one of my favorite things again...
How do YOU sustain wonder (or horror) in your fiction?

I wrote about an interesting prologue. So let's talk about prologues!
Not whether you love them or hate them--but what they are uniquely able to do. What's the difference between a prologue and a first chapter? What is the function of a prologue? And what's the fun of it too? How do you think about whether to include one?

An aspect I'd also love to talk about it is how you do something unusual without it seeming accidental--at least to your first readers. When you play with something like perspective, workshops and beta readers are so likely to get on your case. But it's really worth defying them.

This time I wrote about JACKAL (by Erin E. Adams) and a really fun and unusual POV. It's an "I" that hides from you, knows way too much, and emerges in a deliciously creepy way.
What are your favorite strange POVs?

I wrote about a story from Farah Ali's The People Want to Live and the way a simple description can come to life through the layering of seeming contradiction.

I wrote about the opening chapter to Erika T. Wurth's WHITE HORSE and how it pulls together the mundane and the creepy to both situate & get the story moving--and also do weirder things like evoke the uncanny & make brain explosions.
