Hudson Wilding

Horror novelists of Twitter, where have you been finding full-novel critique partners? I would love to find some writing partners with completed drafts in my genre but it feels rather hopeless in my usual haunts

Am I the only one who feels like the apple peeler in Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke was painfully underutilized in the climax?

@jack_klausner I definitely want to hear your take! It does some really interesting and innovative things with the genre and the performances are really compelling.

My Heart Can't Beat Unless You Tell It To (2021) is the best horror movie I've seen in a long time. Goddamn, why is nobody talking about this?

It's important to remember that the first step in any major revision is despair

"Are You Still There?" by @HudsonWilding (6/1/21) FIRST LINE: Chaplin admitted that he had a strange request, and if it made Milena uncomfortable, he'd never ask again. thedreadmachine.com/are-you-still-… #thriller #fiction #dread #horror

@sneaky_stabby @brecht_dp "The Hitchhiking Game" is one of my all-time favorites!

@brecht_dp Milan Kundera's "The Hitchhiking Game" maybe?

Look what just came in the mail!😍

I want to personally thank Guillermo Del Toro for bringing Nightmare Alley back out of obscurity in 2021 so when I go to query my film-noir-inspired horror novel about a freak show performer set in 1948 I will have a comp title people will actually recognize.

Not to brag but this time when CRAFT Literary Magazine rejected me I got a slightly higher-tiered rejection form than last time so I'm obviously on my way up in the world✨

Dear Olit readers, the writing in the Winter issue is so hot, it will melt away the incoming seasonal blues. Prepare yourselves. 🔥❄️

Looks like I finally had one of my stories about leaving the Jehovah's Witnesses accepted by a literary magazine. So much gratitude right now. #exjw

An anthology I'm going to be published in is having a launch party in the Kurt Vonnegut Library & Museum! I never thought I'd say this, but I kind of wished I lived in Indianapolis...

@sneaky_stabby Thanks so much! I could use some cheerleading. Novel writing is so different than writing shorts. I feel like I keep getting lost in the woods of my own imagination.

@HudsonWilding I don't have any advice since I've no experience but cheering for you as you overcome all the obstacles in your way!!!

60,000 words and 4 years in am I still supposed to be intimidated by my own novel or am I doing this wrong?

@OutcastPress Pretty excited about this press, which was co-founded by one of the most talented transgressive young writers I've had the pleasure of trading critiques with, Paige Johnson
