AuthorCon 3, Publishing updates, and horror happenings around the industry!
AUTHORCON 3: SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!
Scares That Care AuthorCon 3 preparation is almost done. Books are being delivered. Bookmarks have shown up. Other swag has arrived. See you all April 12-14 in Williamsburg, VA. Be sure to come say hi to everyone at the Uncomfortably Dark table. Authors Mike Ennenbach and Patrick Tumblety will be on hand to say hello, sign books and chat with readers. My family will be on hand as well as some of the Uncomfortably Dark reviewers and street team.
AUTHORS-SPECIAL NOTE FOR THOSE ATTENDING AUTHORCON-ARC COPIES
If you are an author attending AuthorCon 3, there will be a dedicated box at the Uncomfortably Dark table for your ARC copies, if you wish to bring us a physical copy. Several of my review team will be at the event, and all ARC copies that are brought to us will be logged and divided among the attending team before they leave, and the rest will be shipped to the other team members at home.
If you decide to bring a physical ARC copy for our team, please put a post-it note inside your front cover, clearly marked ARC, and if you wish it to be reviewed by the team or personally by Candace. Please no more than 2 ARC titles per author.
eBooks and PDFs are great as well. Feel free to use the Review Request form on the website to send those review copies to us.
UNCOMFORTABLY DARK HORROR UPDATES
EPISODES OF VIOLENCE by David Bernstein is live on Amazon today and can be ordered from Ingram Spark by any bookstore or library near you! Limited copies will be available at AuthorCon with signed bookplates.
CREMATED REMAINS by M Ennenbach is ready to go for April 10. Pre-orders for the eBook are live on Amazon now! Limited copies will be available at AuthorCon.
OLD TOO SOON by Brian Bowyer will be a sneak re-release near the end of April. Due to the unfortunate closing of the original publisher, this excellent novel by Brian found itself out of a home shortly after being published. We really want to get this back into the world for his readers, so that will be my focus as soon as AuthorCon is over.
I will also be focusing on our next scheduled release, WHERE THE DEAD DON’T DIE by Ronald J. Murray. May 21 on Godless and May 30 everywhere else.
The 2024 Dark Dozen Anthology theme is set, and invites have been issued! Stay tuned for that announcement over the next week as soon as all invites are accepted.
UNCOMFORTABLY DARK HOME PAGE FEATURES
This week we are featuring MUSE by LCW Allingham and the huge Kickstarter from Dark Lit Press for their DarkLit Sails series! Be sure to check both out on the home page!
We also have an interview with author JP Behrens on the Interview page.
Check that out here:
