Hey, did I hear someone say that there are no women writers in horror? Obviously whoever said that hasn’t been to Australia. I’ve just done a post over at SFAW for this year’s Australian Shadows Awards. The five nominees in the long fiction category include Deborah Biancotti, H.N. (Honey) Brown, and Kaaron Warren. The other categories have women in them too. Just sayin’…

As much as I personally loathe it, much of the Vampire Romance (which, shudder, can be included in horror perhaps more properly than splatter) seems to be written by women. Or at least marketed under female author-names.

Damn straight! 🙂
Thanks for pointing that out, Cheryl. We are quite proud of our women in horror.
