I was very happy to hear that the writing website I created and co-administer with fellow writer David Niall Wilson, Storytellersunplugged.com, was just voted to become one of the finalists for the Bram Stoker Award in the non-fiction category by the membership of the Horror Writers Association.
Here is the complete list of categories and nominees. Winners will be declared at the Stoker Banquet, being held this year in conjunction with the World Horror Convention in Salt Lake City the last weekend of March.
