Podcasts for Writers of the Macabre

Sorry it's been a while since I've written on my blog!  The "new normal" is taking a little time for me to get used to.  But something good has come out of all this.  After doing a little surfing on the web, I've discovered some horror podcasts for writers of the macabre!


Fear on Demand-A showcase for writers established and new, FOD offers the promotional value of having an original work produced.  In addition, they make every effort to promote their writers' works whenever possible.

Historical Mutilations/Arti Doll

I'm thrilled to announce that one of my plays, Historical Mutilations, will be produced this summer by Theatre Off the Square in Weatherford, Texas.  Along with Mike Byham's play, Arti Doll, my play will be produced on June 7-9, 2024, as both plays were winners of the 2023 New Works Contest.  I am so excited that such a prestigious venue as Theatre Off the Square will be producing one of my shows! Historical Mutilations is about the murder of Gary Hinman.  A hippie renaissance figure in the 1960s, as well as the Manson Family's "forgotten victim," Hinman was found dead in his home on Old Topanga Canyon Road eight days before Sharon Tate and four others were found murdered at Tate's Cielo Drive residence.  My play, a biodrama, depicts a possible conversation that Hinman and cult-leader Charles Manson may have had prior to Hinman's murder.  In doing so, Manson compares what is happening to Hinman to famous mutilations of the past, specifically the self-m...

Stage Adaptations of The Tell-Tale Heart

Most of my readers know I have a stage version of Edgar Allan Poe's classic short-story, The Tell-Tale Heart, published through Next Stage Press.  While putting together this post as a shameless plug for my work, I did a little research and found there are some other great versions of Poe's work floating around out there.  As such, let me turn you on to the following versions: The Tell-Tale Heart adapted by Robert Mason.  Turned mad by the sight of his neighbor's eye, Burke kills the old man and cautiously hides the body.  Despite his cleverness, however, will Burke be able to escape his own insanity?   www.playscripts.com The Tell-Tale Heart adapted Luella McMahon.  A young man plans and commits the "perfect crime."  But when a detective stops by on a quite different manner, the young man finds he is unable to stop the pounding of the dead man's heart.  www.dramaticpublishing.com The Tell-Tale Heart adapted by Paul Millet.  A series o...
