“Horror is the liver of the literary body. You need the liver to process all your toxins.”

How gorgeous and insightful, am I right? And that’s only a tiny taste of what award-winning author Dawn Kurtagich has to offer in this fascinating, fun, and frightening interview. Join us as we discuss everything from the purpose of horror to the importance of writing rituals (I, too, wish I could cozy up on the side of a mountain at sunset!).

If you’re anything like me, then you’re not immune to the widespread recent interest in Mormon culture (anybody else love The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives?). Enter Linda Hamilton, an ex-Mormon and the author of The Fourth Wife, a deliciously chilling, historical gothic horror with a feminist slant where a young Mormon woman is haunted by a malevolent presence in the decrepit Salt Lake City mansion she shares with her new husband and his other wives. Join us as we discuss how history and personal experience can inspire horror, religious trauma in horror, gothic novels, and how to manage the writing life.

Linda Hamilton is an author and historian who is currently completing her Master’s in history at Sam Houston State University with a thesis on Mormon women in polygamy. Her debut novel The Fourth Wife (publishing March 31, 2026) is rooted in the real lives of women from her own family history and religious heritage.
