Some readers will be aware that Chaosium purchased Cubicle 7's backlog of Call of Cthulhu-related material a short time back, meaning that all things 'Cthulhu Britannica' including 'Shadows Over Scotland' are now Chaosium property. I can tell you that I had the pleasure of revisiting Shadows and updating it for 7E. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you when that might return in print as I know Chaosium's publication pipeline is full bursting with goodness, but let's just say the stars will soon be right. (less)

Writing Horror and the Transformative Potential of Fear

All artwork here is copyright Cubicle 7 Entertainment. Links below.'Why do you write horror?'
It's a question I have been asked frequently at conventions, through email, and on Facebook. And after nearly 10 years of it, I'm still writing horror, so perhaps the question is all the more relevant. So, let me take you to a dark place and tell you how I use fear in writing horror fiction and games. Read more of this blog post »
