February is Women in Horror Month and Black History Month, so Nicole Kurtz and Eden Royce are proud to announce their intent to work on a novel project together.
Death’s Benefit (working title) is a chilling tale about a
young man with the power to give life. But when dark secrets about his father
are revealed, including an old evil, will he have the strength to take it away
from those he loves?
Reading is an engagement between the writer(s) and the reader. With Choose Your Own Adventure style stories, the reader's opportunity to drive the story is much more intimate--and frightening. Eden and I will demonstrate with this work, the diversity of Women in Horror and propel our work forward in the conversations surrounding women in the genre.

each author’s blog. Read the selections and follow Nicole (@nicolegkurtz) and Eden (@edenroyce) on Twitter and use the #chooseyourhorror hashtag to give the authors your
comments on the direction of the story.
