You know which one I mean. Halloween 2018 is advancing on us like a creeping black cat. I hope you guys are getting into the spirit. I know a lot of you are already way ahead of me.
I know Emily E. James is. She spends most of her time being a first-class editor (you can find her website right here), but she also finds time for her own unique brand of truly macabre handmade Halloween decorations. As you can see, she is a sublimely talented woman (albeit one who is quite mad).
Emily has an Etsy store for her creations in the works. I’ll post it here when it becomes available — lest the little infernal monsters find and haunt me.
“Writing is…. being able to take something whole and fiercely alive that exists inside you in some unknowable combination of thought, feeling, physicality, and spirit, and to then store it like a genie in tense, tiny black symbols on a calm white page. If the wrong reader comes across the words, they will remain just words. But for the right readers, your vision blooms off the page and is absorbed into their minds like smoke, where it will re-form, whole and alive, fully adapted to its new environment.”
