Don't read THE TALES OF TERROR AND TORMENT. They're too dark, too gut-wrenching, too overwhelming and awe-inspiring for the average reader. Stay away. Stick to bland, by-the-numbers horror. I mean, why would you want to read stuff that rots your soul and breaks your mind?

It's the 13th and that means it's Dark Veil Society Day.
The DVS is home to an ensemble of unbelievably talented horror authors. If you've never picked up one of our books you've been missing out.
So go peak behind the Veil, and treat yourself to the very best of indie horror!

Continuing our merry Kingdom Horror Collective Q&A, and here we have the magnificent @AuthorHMRead, author of the sublime Feral Bloom.
Yet another KHC member who watched horror movies when they were far too young. Explains a lot, really.

I'm completely jealous you've managed to get your hands on this before me. π‘π€£
Half way through this, and it's got everything you'd expect from @starkterror88 - bloody kills, laugh out loud dialogue, and page-turning pace. The unique, Steve Stark blend of horror, humour, and sharp social commentary. Great stuff π₯

Okay, horror fans, Iβm simply describing an observable phenomenon here, nothing more, nothing less. Do with the information what you will. After all, no one wants to be forced into enjoying themselves.

Been mucking about on Canva, and here's the result.
Neville is out there, the bland, non-descript man you ignore on your daily commute. But if we're not careful, his silent screaming will soon become a roar!

Just 12 more days till my 50th. For just 99 tiny pence (or more if you fancy hardback or softcover), you can get hold of my award-chasing novel, Feral Bloom. Let's get me 50 sales by my 50th so I can tell mum 'hey, these guys are none too shabby,' Thanks. Here endeth the marketing stuff. Forever. ππ

I just have to say that I absolutely love the Dark Veil Society. Yeah the promoting books part is cool. But these authors have become some of my closest friends.
A group of people to help with questions, make me laugh, and vent to about the frustrations of⦠anything? Priceless
