Dear Reader
As the nights draw in and a crisp chill settles over the land, many of us start turning to dark matters at this time of year (if only to delay thinking about the early-onset arrival of Christmas). With that in mind we’ve whipped up an intoxicating concoction of essential ingredients to help you cast a spooky spell on your readers: advice on what needs to go into a scary story, an exercise you can try with your writing group (or any other iron-willed volunteers!) and a look at a classic short story to show you how to get under the skin of your characters.
