    2020 in Review

    Every year, I do a review blog where I catalog all the writing and festivals and horror-related activities I have accomplished in the year. This year, frankly, I just don’t want to. 2020 was a shit in show. In 2020, I survived. There will be a wave of blog posts this week, next week that…
