HAU

About Me

A collection of Professional and Amatuer horror writers coming together to share ideas and communicate on the genre. We are here to promote horror as a form of legitimate literature and as a place to network with all writers of the weird, terrifying and macabre. ..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5

My Interests


Please feel free to visit and join our HAU Group here at MySpace. We try to keep up ongoing topics about horror writing and the genre. Share your favorite authors, your publishing woes, interviews, articles, and all types of support. ææ

I'd like to meet:

If you are a horror writer and/or artist and would like your work featured here, please contact us. We are always looking to meet new creative people and help the up-and-comers."Everybody is a book of blood; whenever we're open, we're red."Clive Barker said that at the beginning of his classic series of short stories, "The Books Of Blood." HAU is here to help find and promote the Barker, King, Rice and Lovecraft in all of you out there. Once you become a friend, you may submit your short stories to us for the possibility of getting posted here in the blog section. While we can't pay you (not yeat at least!) we want you to be able to share your works with as broad an audience as possible. Blog/short stories will be rotated once a week, or as frequently as we get new submissions.*GUIDELINES* We only have one editor right now, and he's overworked as it is. So be kind to him and make sure you proofread carefully before you submit your work to us. While your concept may be incredible, your inability to use spellchecker will get your piece tossed. Just send it to us in a message, with the subject "Submission." Make sure to give us a title and your pen name! Keep your work between 1000 and 10,000 words. We like short pieces that will be easy to read and post. We are a horror and dark fantasy site here on MySpace, so keep with the program. However, needless gore, swearing, and sex will get your piece tossed, too.We don't care if your piece has been published before, currently published, or never published - as long as it's good! We don't care what age you are, where you live, or what your status is as a writer - everyone is equal here. HAU also has a Group Forum for discussions and topics. Feel free to join up there, too!Remember, the last letter in HAU stands for UNITED. Together, we can grow stronger as a community of writers..
