Complete Stories

Can anyone suggest some contemporary horror writers on a par with C18, C19 and C20 writers eg Poe, Shelley, Stoker, Machen, Jackson. Thanks Maxine

1. Yes, way more than I should 🙈 I‘m pretty sure I‘ve forgotten some but I‘m doing #eagerforedgar #lmpc (it kind of counts 😋)
A horror read along (forgot the #) and reading House of Leaves with my boyfriend.
2. I‘m not sure honestly. To something far prettier than my current name. I feel like my name is pretty boring 😅
3. This answer changes daily, but right now it‘s Square Hammer by Ghost.

The Complete Short Stories | Edgar A Poe

I joined a book club. (After 8 months in a new city, it's probably time to make some friends.🤷)
My first meeting is tomorrow night when we'll discuss 5 stories by Poe. 🦇🕷️
So tonight I'm playing catch-up.
Tommorow, I will be a bit nervous. 😬

krismlars It‘s hard to make new friends, I‘m in the same boat. Have fun! 7y

mcipher Have fun! Book Club means at least you'll have one important thing in common right off the bat, even though it's scary. Plus there's always chocolate and/or wine. 👍 7y

batsy Good luck and hope you have fun! And it's Poe! Wine is always a friend during these things 😁 7y

JacqMac Bookish friends are the best kind. I hope it goes well and you have fun. 7y

BarbaraBB How brave of you! Do you like these short stories? I didn‘t, which would have made me extra nervous 😉 7y

merelybookish @krismlars Thanks! It does seem to take more effort as you get older. 7y

merelybookish @mcipher @batsy We meet at Whole Foods so maybe 🍫🍫but no 🍷🍷. 🙄 7y

merelybookish @JacqMac Thanks! I'm hopeful! (Just sometimes my introverted side kicks in.) 🙂 7y

merelybookish @BarbaraBB Thanks! I think I'm more desperate than brave. I do miss having girlfriends! ☺️ I'm okay with Poe. Mostly I like the ornate 19th c. language and he does create a good unreliable narrator. But I don't care much about the plots. 7y

BarbaraBB Having some girlfriends makes life better, I agree. A book club seems perfect to find them. I hope you have a great evening! 7y

Tamra Good for you! I bet it will be fun. 👍🏾 7y

mydearwatson I love Poe! Have a great time! 7y

merelybookish Thanks @Tamra and @mydearwatson ❤️ 7y

Sarah83 Good luck 🤞 7y

Cathythoughts Oh good luck. It's always difficult ( I think) walking into a new situation, I hope they are all really nice & friendly. ❤️❤️👍 7y

quietlycuriouskate I hope you have a lovely time! 7y

Ms_T Have fun! 7y

mcipher One out of two ain‘t bad. 😂 I hope it was fun!! 7y
