Workshop Your WIP: Show Us Your Scary Bits!
Share your freakiest fictional moments in The Community Corner
Hey there, writerfolk.
This month’s Freaky Flash workshop is all about how to make your writing genuinely, pants-wettingly scary — from classic horror movie jump-scares to the subtle, unsettling moments that (literally) creep up on you…
And sometimes the best way to learn is by seeing what others have done, so do your classmates a favor and share: What’s the scariest thing you’ve ever written?
Maybe it’s a poem so frightening you had to bury it under the floorboards
Maybe it’s a scene from your work-in-progress that gives you the shudders every time you look at it
Or maybe it’s not something ‘traditionally’ scary (zombies), but is real life terrifying (doing your taxes)
Tell us all about it, and if its published online - drop the link!
Was it fun/difficult/spooky to write about? How did you achieve your desired level of creepiness? Or do you need some community brainstorming on how to make it even more horrific..?
👻 Share your fictional scares in the comments! 😱
P.S. Oh, also, don’t forget the incredible resource that is our Community Skill Share post, which contains a wealth of knowledge from your fellow workshoppers on real life scary subjects like night terrors, cemeteries and nuclear power plants.
Now go join in with the Freaky Flash workshop and write something spoOooopy…
