Project Summary

In this interview, I seek to highlight a darker side of fiction by chatting with indie horror author and audiobook narrator,

S.W. Salzman.

S.W. (who I will refer to by his first name Shawn) is a close friend and an author I admire.

Because of this, I knew he would be a fantastic candidate to interview for this project.

In our interview, I asked Shawn questions pertaining specifically to horror fiction.

I set out to allow space for him to share why he is drawn to horror and what makes a story effective.

The listener/reader will get a unique dual perspective from someone who is both a horror fiction fan and who writes it.

 I attempted to keep the interview brief and concise while also asking Shawn questions that got into the heart of the horror story.

I also made a point to ask Shawn about any stereotypes that may exist around horror.

I have personally experienced these as a reader of darker fiction and appreciated Shawn's thoughtful response to that question.

Shawn is a talented author and I encourage you to check out his books on Amazon under the name S.W. Salzman.
