WRITING WORKSHOP: Harness Your Fears to Craft Spine-Tingling Horror with Stephen Scott

What scares you the most? The unknown? Sharks? The Dark?

Or is it something else? Whether rational or irrational, fear is the oldest emotion that stirs the most frightening parts of our imagination.

What is the difference between fear, horror, terror, or dread? How you define them can really make a scary scene scarier.

How do our senses react when we are scared? What scares our senses of hearing, sensation, taste, and smell. How does our body react when terrorized? What does
our heart do? How can you describe fear in your chest, or head?

Just in time for the start of spooky season, we’ve partnered with Stephen Scott for a spine-tingling workshop on harnessing your fear to create horror fiction. Whether it’s a short story, novella, or novel, the possibilities are open to wonderfully terrifying nightmares.
