🩸 Workshop Update: Double Feature Before I Head Off 🩸

Hey everyone — quick note before I vanish for a few days!

Belgium is calling for my yearly Aikido course 🇧🇪🥋 (yes, I promise not to come back with too many bruises).


Since I’ll be away, this week’s session will combine two workshops in one — and they’re both absolute essentials for anyone serious about writing and submitting horror professionally.


📘 1. The Submission Package: Crafting a Polished Entry for Horror MarketsThis guide breaks down everything editors look for — from formatting and file types to cover letters and bios that actually get read. If you’ve ever wondered why some stories are dismissed within seconds (and how to avoid that fate), this one’s for you.


✍️ 2. Claiming Your Voice: Write with Confidence, Consistency & Creative BoldnessOnce you’ve nailed the technical side, this one’s about unleashing your individuality. It’s all about finding and trusting your writing voice — that mix of tone, rhythm, and worldview that makes your stories unmistakably yours.


These two lessons go hand-in-hand: one teaches you how to present your work like a pro, the other reminds you why your unique voice deserves to be heard.


Both PDFs are now live — take your time with them, and feel free to share your thoughts or questions in the comments.



I’ll check in when I can, but you’ve got plenty to work on while I’m rolling around on tatami mats.


Keep writing, keep submitting — and remember: the best horror doesn’t just haunt editors, it impresses them too. 💀
