Win $50! Turn in your scavenger hunt clues!
Authortunities #94 │December 28—January 25
Last Authortunities of the year, and what a year it has been. This time, 365 days ago, I had no plans to run for president of the Horror Writers Association. I knew I wanted something better than social media but I hadn't yet considered creating an online community. Authortunities Press existed, but flywheel publishing was still a half-baked dream I puzzled over. And now, here I am, and all these things are thriving realities. I blame you. 😂
Seriously, thank you for all the love, support, emails, messages, kind words, shares, subscriptions… every interaction from every reader has brought us to this moment. Whatever 2025 brings, we can handle it together.
Here's to a prosperous and productive New Year. May your 2025 be brilliant with joy!
🔎Time to wrap up the Book Fair Scavenger Hunt!
The first person to correctly answer all the clues will win a $50 Amazon gift card and be announced in next week’s Authortunities!

Do you send your pubs to Locus magazine? They review science fiction, fantasy, horror, speculative, surreal, slipstream, crossed genres, similarly themed YA, art books, and related nonfiction that is published or being published. All the details here.
The Authortunities Hub has reached 200 members in two months! Besides regular open mics, critique groups, writing challenges, and plenty of friends, in January we open up our publishing coach certification program and flywheel publishing. Did I mention the community is free? Join the NeighborHub here!
Speaking of free, this is the final week to enjoy all the calendar content completely free! I hope you’ve made the most of the extra submissions and discovered exciting new authortunities. Starting next week, the regular two-week freemium content will resume, with exclusive access to future weeks for paid subscribers. 🌟

There are thousands of monsters in myth, legend, and folklore that would scare Dracula and send the Wolfman running with tail between his legs! Workshop costs $50.
