My plan for this month was simple: Blog every day, whether here or on Cemetery Travel. Write a bunch of guest posts for other people’s blogs. Enjoy the Death Salon and Litquake.
Being sick for two and a half weeks scaled that all back drastically. I kept up the guest post writing, but the blogging fell apart.
I didn’t factor in all the interviewing I’d get this month, which has been a fabulous surprise. I’ve told you about the Travel and Leisure piece, but there’s also a piece coming up on Boston.com this week, too.
Last month, I chatted with Cheryl Eddy, whom I’ve read for over a decade at the San Francisco Bay Guardian (RIP). Our interview about traveling around to visit cemeteries and Morbid Curiosity Cures the Blues went up on Monday at io9.com: http://io9.com/this-is-the-life-of-a-graveyard-tourist-1651350544
This morning, an interview I did with Natasha Ewendt went up on Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/7082805.Natasha_Ewendt/blog
In all the excitement, I think I forgot to tell you about my essay for the HWA’s Halloween Haunt’s blog, about the graves of horror writers, which was published last week: http://horror.org/halloween-haunts-horror-lies-loren-rhoads/
And you’ve probably seen my Horror Selfie, but just in case: http://horrorselfies.com/loren-rhoads/
It’s been a rich, full month — and passing by in a blur.
Do you have some spooky plans for the weekend? Why not go to a graveyard? I’m planning to.
