It’s October and you know what that means – all the horror writers come out to play.
Right now the Horror Writers Association is getting into the swing of things by launching its annual Halloween Haunts blog series and now Horror Selfies.
Horror authors from around the world are pushing the literacy bandwagon by encouraging people to pick up a horror book to enjoy.
I contributed my Horror Selfie HERE. I’m a bit scary-looking, but hey, I’m a horror writer 🙂
I’ll also be participating in Halloween Haunts later in the month with a blog post about how I am celebrating Halloween in Australia – a country which is only just catching on to the fun.
Head over to the Halloween Haunts blogsite to read some very inspiring articles to get you in the mood for Halloween!
Another initiative, started by Neil Gaiman, is All Hallow’s Read, which encourages people to give someone a horror book as a gift on Halloween.
