On Writing Horror: A Handbook by the Horror Writers Association by Mort Castle

2.0

Most of these essays were written in the 80s & 90s, so they're addressing an industry that's basically as outdated as phrenology nowadays (I mean, even articles about publishing from five years ago seem outdated now). There were one or two articles I found interesting, but mostly they can all be boiled down to two basic premises: 1) Believe It or Not, Horror Fiction Can Be Good; and 2) If You Apply These Beginner-Level Principles, Your Fiction Will Be Better.
