Do you like gothic horror with its melancholic mood and gloomy atmosphere?
What are you reading in your slice of paradise?
Extreme horror novel alert! 🫀
The third issue of Morina kutija is now out for the (Croatian speaking) world to read! 🥳
Just an aquatic horror novella vacationing in the town its set in. 🏖💀
I was not trying to copy @pannonian.mermaid, I swear (not that I could ever make something as amazing as she does). But @vesnakurilic took my phone and caught this moment and it was too good not to share. 😁
I'm not yet on vacation, I'm only making plans for my vacation tbr! Do you have a perfect vacation book to recommend to me? 🏖
I got Certain Dark Things by Silvia Moreno-Garcia for my birthday last year, and I kept waiting for the perfect time to read it. Which is the beach time, because it's the only time I like to have a paperback with me. 🏖
I love talking about inspiration behind stories I write. Especially when I get to share stories infused with Croatian history and folklore with a wider audience. Such is the chance with my short sapphic gothic story All Sweet Souls, to be published in Unthinkable: A Queer Gothic Anthology, this October, by joint efforts of @hauntpublishing and @nyxpublishing.
