Heading to Atlanta in a few hours for the World Horror Convention and Bram Stoker Awards weekend. This is going to be an action-packed con for me. I'm moderating 3 panels (The Importance of Beta Readers, Horror and the Headlines, and YA Literacy), co-presenting the award for Superior YA Novel with the great Christopher Golden, and doing two book signings. In between, it's lunch with my editor, Don D'Auria, hanging with friends, and maybe hitting the jacuzzi. I'm also launching 2 books at the event, The Cure and Winterwood.

Addison So here we are in February, Black History Month and I’m a triple threat: Black, Woman, Horror Writer. I’m old enough to remember a time when these descriptions weren’t celebrated. The thing is that I’m a quietly, stubborn person. I realize now that I was like that as a child so I wrote my weird stuff regardless. I wish there wasn’t a need for a Black History Month or Women In Horror Month or Black Women in Horror Month, but unfortunately it’s sadly clear that they are needed. Too many peop...

She’s won more than 5 writing awards and been nominated for several others. Her short stories are frequently features in annual Year's Best Horror anthologies. She is a font of knowledge about writing, but in today’s blog she’s talking not about the craft of writing, but the life outside it. ====================================== Live in the Moment by Yvonne Navarro             So here I am, having agreed to write a blog (again) and with no concept of what to write about (again).   I’m a writer, so I should write about writing, right?   Please.   I’m one of the Old Ones.   No, I’m not ninety years old (although sometimes I feel like it) and banging this out on an antique Remington typewriter where I hear a ding! and have to use th...
