Vote Now For The THIS IS HORROR AWARDS 2018

EDITOR’S NOTE: I’m turning this column over to the friendly (and fiendish) folks at This Is Horror to tell you more about the Annual Awards, now open for voting by the public. I’ve been following the website and podcast for many years, and appreciate the expert approach they take to the subject matter: horror in books, film, comics, television and all media. I’ve included some links so you can explore further and/or support their endeavors.  I’m a Patron at the $4 level and don’t regret the decision at all . . . . . . . . .

Hey, friends! The This Is Horror Awards 2018 are now open. Please send your votes to awards@thisishorror.co.uk with the subject line ‘Awards 2018’. To cast a vote simply write the category and your vote for each award. You may vote for your top two in each category. For example:
