David Rider ✅<p>We had a great time today at FAN EXPO Chicago. Here’s our crew from the HWA Chicagoland panel “Craft of Creating Horror,” and also our full table crew. (Flip back and forth to figure out which of us didn’t do the panel.) Fun fact: it was storming behind us, which lent to the spooky mood. Doing a great job in her first time as moderator was Grace Daly.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/FanExpo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FanExpo</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/FanExpoChicago" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FanExpoChicago</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/HWAChicagolandChapter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HWAChicagolandChapter</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Horror" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Horror</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/IndieHorror" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IndieHorror</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/HorrorCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HorrorCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/IndieAuthor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IndieAuthor</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/SupportIndieHorror" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SupportIndieHorror</span></a></p>

B.W. Conway<p>Think of yourself in a concert hall listening to the strains of the sweetest music when you suddenly remember that you forgot to lock your car.
