Author Nate Atkins won Crystal Lake’s most recent flash contest and has agreed to host. Here is the new theme:
“Eco-Horror! This month, it’s time to plunge into Eco-Horror: stories rooted in ecological dread, nature-based curses, primeval forces tied to the land, your own raging kaiju creation. Think melting icecaps, mass extinction, poisoned water, forever chemicals—whatever keeps you up at night as you ponder humankind’s looming demise. Maybe it’s the price of deforestation, factory farming, or gutting Mother Earth for oil and lithium. Or maybe it’s all fake news, and you’d rather just f*** up some whiny tree huggers. The choice is yours. Just make it scary.”
