A little late with this post, but we were at the pumpkin patch with the kids and it’s been an awesome and busy day. So here we are with the final Five Links Friday of the month. And it’s a horror theme, of course. Enjoy!
1. Let’s start off with not an article, but a graphic. Novel-software.com has a nice sample of the three-act structure for writing horror. Print it off and hang it on the wall when you’re writing.
2. Need help writing spooky stories? Here is Karen Woodward with 17 Ways To Write A Terrifyingly Good Horror Story.
3. And while on the topic of help for horror, here are 31 Horrifying Writing Prompts to Help You Scare the Bejesus out of Yourself This Halloween from Hobbylark.com.
4. Rachelle Ramirez at StoryGrid has an awesome post on Secrets of the Horror Genre for you to read.
5. Finally, here’s a post on finding Inspiration for Horror Writers by Kira Butler, just in case you need more 🙂
That will close out the week. I hope this month has been well for you and your writing. Be sure to check out Theme of Absence next week, as we’ll have not only the winner of the Halloween contest posted Halloween morning, but also the two runner-up stories on Monday and Tuesday. So it will be a busy week on our sister-site.
Have a great weekend, and see ya soon!
