Jason Frederick Myers

Jason Frederick Myers (he/him) suffered from horrible nightmares as a child, so the irony of growing up to write dark fiction is not lost on him. As a young adult, he became obsessed with the writings of Shirley Jackson, Clive Barker, and Stephen King, authors from whom he draws inspiration today. When not reading or writing, he is likely exploring a secluded mountain or forest, as he only goes to town to acquire new Halloween decorations. A member of the HWA, he has fiction in or forthcoming at DarkWinter Lit, Black Sheep Magazine, Exquisite Death, Dark Harbor Magazine, Black Petals, The Horror Zine, and various anthologies.
