Make money doing the work you believe in
Welcome back Macabre Monday folks! Double posting today because I’d like to invite the participants to join me in a fun writing project! We choose a horror topic and return in 2 weeks (October 9th)to see our unique spins in short story format (3k words max). Our theme for this round is “liminal space”.
Forbes describes liminal space as a “place a person is in during a transitional period. It's a gap, and can be physical (like a doorway), emotional (like a divorce) or metaphorical (like a decision).“ In Internet culture, however, it refers to a certain aesthetic: that which is simultaneously familiar and alien. See this article for examples:
With so many unique minds at work in the SubStack horror/dark speculative fiction community, I am so excited to read what you guys have in store. I’ve tagged the usual suspects (and some newer ones 😀) but you don’t need to be tagged to participate nor should you feel pressured to join if you are tagged! Give me a shout and I’ll be sure to include you on the list of links when the ddl comes around.
Quick summary of the rules:
3k words max
horror/dark spec fic
close date is midnight (EST) 9th of October, 2023
include themes of liminal space
Good luck!
Honeygloom (I love your style so much btw)
