Silent Scream

Using your fears to create terrifying, memorable fiction.

Award-winning writer Kaaron Warren

Join Kaaron as she explores the nooks and crannies of one of the most haunted areas of Mayday Hills. We’ll delve into what scares us, and let the ghosts watching over us whisper in our ears.
People think that horror writers are scared of nothing. Quite the opposite; we’re scared of everything, and that’s how we write fiction that stays with our readers.
