“Dark Side” Giveaway!

SniderWriter has now reached 10,000 hits!!

You guys, you don’t even know. You’re fabulous, the whole lot of you. I came home just now, saw this, and instantly my crappy day turned awesome again. Thanks so much!

I want to give you something back, so I thought I’d hold a little draw.

I’m giving away five digital copies of Dark Side: Seven Repulsive Stories, my first collection of horror shorts. There’s a little something for everyone: zombies, a psychopathic child, a naked Boogeyman, and of course blood and guts everywhere, just like we like it.

Comment on this post and tell me your favourite horror movie to enter. That’s it. That’s all. And even that’s only so I know who wants in. You have until 8PM EST Saturday October 20th to enter. I’ll pick winners at random and notify you by 11PM EST Saturday, so you can stay up late and get your scare on. Please make sure I have some way of contacting you: email, twitter, blog address, SOMETHING, because I’ll be sending the winners an exclusive code for the free download.

Good luck! I hope you like it!

“Cupcakes”.

Morbid? Disturbing? Violent?
“But…but those are children’s characters! They’re harmless little ponies!”
Not once the internet gets a hold of them, they’re not.
Enjoy!

(PS: Damn, that’s a catchy song. I’ve been humming it for hours. Let us not reflect on its lyrical content, lest we become concerned for my mental health.)

A Reminder from Art Student Owl

I love this blog (tumblr? Is it called a “blog” or a “tumblr” when it’s hosted on tumblr? If it’s the latter, pretend like I knew that and take “I love this blog” as a reference to THIS blog, sniderwriter, which I do, in fact, love. Some clever bitch writes it.) ANYWAY.

Fuck Yeah Art Student Owl is a collaborative…thingy…detailing the lives of overworked and underloved art students. Most of it is visual-arts specific, though there’s some carryover with the arts in general. I like to read it because no matter how busy I am, I will never be as busy as these guys seem to be. It nurtures my inner chain-smoking misanthropist.
