Hey authors! Describe what you're currently working on/writing, or if you're not actively writing what ideas do you have? What do you want to write?

I’m working on a supernatural slasher horror as well as a series of science fantasy space novellas.

The horror is still in the planning stage. It’s about a creature called Creepy Crawly who visits kids when they’re being abused. I’m going to start the first draft this week.

The novellas are about a shuttle crew who transfer people between a space station and a planet. I plan to write the first three or four books and then rapid release them.

I'm working on a Greek mythology book (series???).
I'm really excited about it because it's so different from what I've done in the past!

I love Greek mythology! That sounds great. Which myths will be in the book? 😊

I'm also working on a series of three novellas loosely based on Greek mythology. It's a stretch for me too. Megan, maybe we could do a first draft swap and see the difference and similarities in our works and styles?

Exciting, Chad! Which myths inspired your novellas?

I didn't necessarily use myths, but most of my characters are based on Greek Gods. Zeus, Hades, Poseiden, Ares, Aphrodite, Hera, Demeter, Hermes, Hestia, Appolo, Eros, are all represented. It's called Cerberus (the three-headed dog will be metaphorical). To make it stranger, it's told like a spaghetti western.

Chad, that sounds amazing! I love the idea. 😁

Psychological Thriller/Horror called Redacted almost finished. Plan is to cause the same reaction to social media as Jaws did for the ocean. I have a background in Profiling and Network Security.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back online…

Interesting tag line. The killer paints his face like a psychotic mime, with a cross over their eyes.

Sounds good. Great visual for the movie poster. 😊

That and probably the serial killer's trophy.
