#WritingHorrors #Writing 1. Describe a monster from your setting or story.

<Snip>
The other woman was dressed in a white kimono that billowed strangely. It was as inappropriate as the light cotton housedress Shiomi wore. My blood ran cold, and I almost froze with terror at the unbelievable sight of Mikawa-san.

Long black hair, flying in a wind no one but she could feel, framed a blackened and bloated face. It was the face of a corpse returned from the grave.

A ghost chasing two women. See msg. for the ghost.

#writinghorrors 1. Describe a monster from your setting or story.

With a creak of leather and a gasp, Darius shifted suddenly. “I saw the eyes!” he shouted. “Down the gulch, toward the mine entrance. It’s a Yucca Man! Jesus heavenly Christ, give me the lantern!”

…Darius swung the lantern around wildly, showering the light on cactus, weeds, creosote bushes, rocks, a hillside, and more rocks.

#WritingHorrors #1 "Describe a monster from your setting or story."

I just spent Inktober telling the story of the Human Chair. It’s obviously inspired by Ranpo’s novel title but the story is quite different

Nuki Raccoon: The DEI Program of Furry Erotica

#WritingHorrors #1 "Describe a monster from your setting or story."

Jack shivered involuntarily as he watched the writhing of the multitude of connections, impulses flowing in and out of the visualization, bursts of terrabytes going at the speed of light. This was his third time beholding Collective in its place on the cloud, and still, he found even the simulation of his organic brain unable to process the scope of it.

Nearby, Nuki's avatar, a green dragoness covered in "magical" runes, hung from a set of wires made of pure light, jerking about involuntarily as the hivemind's thoughts flowed through it uncontrollably. He didn't understand the process beyond that, he didn't understand how someone could link to it and still come out comprehending it.

Then again, Nuki had been around for over a century, and the last few decades of that existence had been entirely virtual.

That said, these may not be relevant to every story: asking a character, “Have you ever killed anyone?” may not be a relevant question in your story, and that’s ok. Conversely, if you’re writing a story for mature audiences, you might ask why not: plenty of people kill people in real life, and not necessarily as a crime, and plenty of people who haven’t can tell you an interesting story of someone who has.

With all that said, go ahead and look at the tag for the first one...

Well, I've been saying all month that I need to roll this out, but every time I try to sit down and write out a whole thing, something like a hurricane shows up and completely derails whatever I'm working on. Between that and the election, it's already Halloween night, and I haven't even thrown down any description for .

So rather than waiting another year, I'm just going to blast it out...

(golly, I'm sure used to more than 500 characters on the non-writing account, lol)

So if y'all are interested, go ahead and follow the hashtag, and I'll try to toss in the first question in the next couple days!

Please the above post so more writers can see it!

Last year, I was talking about starting some sort of / hashtag for and , like or / , but this would be and ask questions about morbid topics within .

The post was writing.exchange/@raccoon/1103

I got very sidetracked at some point, but I'd still like to do it, and with / just around the corner, I'm going to try and start that up soon.
