Happy Pride, and thank you to everyone who came to visit and buy books at our table at Salem Pride in the Park! We thank our publishers and authors for providing these great books, too!
We sold out of a couple titles and sold several more books, so here are a few links for those who asked if they can buy the books from the publishers or elsewhere:
- The Divine Darkness Trilogy by Lee Mitchell, on Amazon
- Little Key Press
- Claw Machine edited by Elle Mitchell
- Weird Fiction Quarterly
This chapter of the HWA celebrates, supports, and promotes the work of Oregon and southern Washington horror writers and publishing professionals.
- Our chapter meetings are held on the third Sunday of each month at 6 p.m. via Google Meet.

We also host private and public in-person events for our members and the community, and our table with information about how to join our chapter and our members’ books can be found at various events throughout the year.
