We have some rather exciting news regarding our publishing plans for 2027 🦝
The Halloween horror issue was so much fun, we decided we needed a horror-specific space in TCL.
Horror writers get ready for The Dark Alley 🖤

Launching with a themed sub call in February 2027

Some urban legends are terrifying. Others make you wonder who on earth came up with them.
Both have potential for a good horror story.

The most unsettling horror stories have one thing in common: they get inside your head and refuse to leave. ✍️💀

Anybody can write gore. A spleen here, a heart there, a slash there. Congratulations, you wrote a butcher's list.

The best writers will entertain you with the gore, but it's that one sentence they use that terrifies you.

Be a writer. ✍️
