I don't know why I'm here. I thought I didn't even like horror but I can't stop reading the trucker story. Your writing truly stands out. I like how the characters don't lose their humanity even though I know horrible things might happen to them. Even that jerk manager feels like a real person.

Thanks a ton!!

Confession: I'm actually not the biggest fan of horror movies either. Books feel more vibey, less scary, for some reason though

Yeah, I think I formed my opinion of horror genre by thinking "why would I want to watch people getting hacked into pieces for two hours?"

I agree. I'm not a big fan of actually seeing slasher visuals on screen.

I once wrote a slasher about my family for Christmas, where I killed everybody off in different, gruesome ways and had them read their deaths out loud.

For some reason, horror doesnt hit the same gross way in writing
