I’m married to a beautiful woman and we own a bizarre amount of animals, currently the number is sixteen, but please don’t let that scare you away! We have a farm, so it’s at least somewhat justified. My passion for extreme horror developed from my curiosities in my adolescence, I would often look up the most extreme horror films I could find with my friends and watch as many as we could stomach. Looking back on it, I think viewing those movies set a standard for me that most contemporary horror could rarely achieve. It wasn’t until I found extreme horror literature as an adult that my needs for the extreme

Sylvester Barzey
Hey Survivor! My name is Sylvester Barzey and I am a best-selling horror and fantasy author. I grew up in the Bronx, NY, lived in the smallest state in the country for a while, and then transplanted to Lawrence, GA.

I’m a military veteran with an addiction to all things horror. My overall goal is to shine a spotlight on BIPOC characters within the horror/fantasy genre. From a young age, I was obsessed with horror movies, mostly Slashers. The mythos of the “Final Girl” trope was always something that appealed to me. The act of taking someone and watching them overcome the greatest odds to be the ultimate survivor has been a strong attraction to the horror for me.
But, what I didn’t realize growing up was all these survivors were White. Seein -

Hello Fleshbags,

I'm a self proclaimed Horror Aficionado, Self Published Horror Author who loves any and all things Macabre. If I'm not writing, I'm geeking out on space stuff or watching Horror Movies. I can spend hours talking about the universe, or how horror has shaped the entertainment industry as we know it. I have a deep rooted love of anything zombies thanks to the king Mr. George Romero.
Outside of the fascinating deplorable world that is my imagination, I......well.......I don't really know cause my imagination is my world. If it involves go fast automobiles, gearhead/petrolhead, dark disturbing horror, or space, we will probably get a long just great.
As always, thanks for your support. Without you, I would be another blade of grass -

Mark M.J. Green
Bald, bearded and bumbling, Mark likes the spooky side of life and things that go bump in the night. Although that's usually him wandering into something as he didn't bother to turn a light on.

Mark writes horror stories in a variety of styles within the genre and enjoys spending time with his family - including his day who may, or may not, be demonic.
He's also a bit of a nerd and when he hasn't got his face buried in a book can be found playing video games and board games.
Take one, Mr Potatohead. Attach his angry eyes - preferably placing one of them at a slightly different angle to the other. Affix a beard and leave the head barren of growth.
Congratulations. You now have your very own Mark M.J. Green.

Hi. My name is Jesse and I’m a compulsive writer
Buy books on Amazon
I can’t help it. I write prolifically. I write because I must! And luckily for you, my dear reader, the stories never stop.
What do I write?
I write fantasy because the world we live in can feel like a trap.
I write sci-fi because I like to toy with worlds, universes, and cultures. I like to play god. I write horror as a kind of decadence. I mean, who doesn’t like writing that bleeds?
Regardless of what type of speculative fiction I write, you can expect that it will be dark. Whether my inspiration comes from a shiver crawling up my spine while darting across a dark parking lot, a fascination with Gothic heroines and their delightful kidnappability, or a desire to build a world to suit a spiffy MM -

My wife and I bought a bushland property on the Burnett River near Bundaberg a vibrant town of 100,000 people in regional Queensland, Australia.
I had write a book on my bucket list and after 2 years of retirement, I decided if I was ever going to write a book I better start.
It was one of the most challenging activities I have ever undertaken, it is fair to say, writing did not come naturally to me.
Eventually I finished my first book “Innocent Assassin”.
I have enjoyed the creative process of writing as well as the personal growth from forcing myself out of my comfort zone.
I have since finished the Sakura Bianchi trilogy and commenced writing a horror trope.
I hope you enjoy my stories.
