It’s our Halloween special on Indie Author Showcase! This week, we’re diving deep into the dark heart of storytelling — exploring how to create fear, suspense, and tension that truly stick with your readers. We break down the three tenets of horror, share techniques to make your audience squirm (in the best way), and discuss how fear can reveal the most human parts of our characters.

Then, we spotlight Extermination by Matthew Johnson, a pulse-pounding tale of survival and terror that perfectly captures the spirit of the season.

So light the pumpkin candles, dim the lights, and join us for a chilling episode that’s as insightful as it is unsettling.

For more on creating fear in your stories, see this video by Brandon McNulty
