Egads! February's almost over already. How'd that happen??

But it's not quite over yet, and my fellow Women in Horror have been quite busy. Here's what the rest of my Hounds have been up to:

Diane Dooley posted this interview with Nicole J. LeBoeuf, author of several short stories, including "My First Breath," which appears in the Ellen Datlow anthology, Blood and Other Cravings. If I haven't mentioned this here before, Ellen Datlow is my favorite horror anthologist, and deserves a mention on her own.

Ms. Dooley also put together this helpful index of some of the other bloggers and participants in this year's festivities--including yours truly!

Sara Jayne Townsend has two blog entries to commemorate the month: Part 1 discusses the traditionally male focus of the genre, and the perception that women just don't do the horror thing; Part 2 is a roundup of some of her favorite horror writers.

Lastly, horror writer Foinah Jameson talks about the difference between fear and viscera, and the importance of gallows humor here.

As for myself, I have submitted "The Candelabrum" to the first magazine on my list. (Help! Help!) That's the most exciting writerly thing I've been up to lately, but I will keep y'all posted on any further developments.

Hi, there! Nice blog ^_^. I've got all mine over on Wordpress, so it wouldn't let me have a name or "follow" you or anything, but I got your letter like... a month ago, and due to moving-to-Texas insanity, I only just now managed to wander by. Did you get the copies of Kinlea Keeper and Curse I sent to your e-mail over the years? Have you heard from Negar recently? I'm horribly out of the loop... anyhow, hugs! Also, I am checking a different e-mail more often than the one I gave you back in London (though I'm still checking that one intermittently, too). I didn't want to slap it publicly into your blog, but it's on my website at http://worldsofwords.org (specifically at the tops of both resume pages), and I'd be elated if you'd drop me a line. Heck, we could totally beta-read each other! Take care- Elisa/Eri-chan/Creator of the random hug attack

ERI-CHAN!!!

*hug-attack*

I'll totally email you at your new address--and I'm so glad you got my letter! I do have your Kinlea Keeper stories, but I don't think I have the Curse ones. Not a word from Negar, and I have no clue how to get in touch with her either. :(

Great to hear from you!!
