A letter from the President:
Hi, folks. I wanted to take a moment and welcome you to the Horror Author’s Guild. The idea for this originated because we wanted a place where everyone in the horror genre could get a chance to be recognized for their talent. Across all media, we celebrate the horror genre. We wanted to include everyone who enjoys the genre and give them a voice and a place to showcase their work. Here your work will be appreciated on one thing and one thing only… talent. No political agendas, no personal axes to grind, no bias based on anything but the writing. In a tumultuous world of uncertainty, too many people are quick to dismiss others for being different. You won’t find that here. We celebrate the horror genre for what it is, not what it is not. So, come join us as we delve into all media of horror and appreciate it for the quality of the work. Nothing more. Welcome to the Horror Author’s Guild.

A letter from the Vice-President:
The idea for HAG came after years of hearing people complain that they can’t get noticed because they aren’t “big” enough to get bigger. Many feel frustrated. We encourage diversity, but we will never sacrifice talent for representation; the very idea of such insults everyone. A writer/poet/artist MUST be recognized and valued for nothing more and nothing less than talent. We must evaluate someone based upon the work produced. Our membership requirements may seem unusual. They are. Sometimes authors sell a million dollars worth of what many call “weak” or “poor” writing. Others sometimes struggle to get sales on a wonderful book. Our goal is to have a place for people to feel included.
