We're finally ready... I have a few seats filled but I'm looking for a Board of Directors for The Poet Tree. This will be monetized, so only the most dedicated candidates will be selected. With the right team, no one in the world can compete (we are already the biggest). I'll write up a full breakdown and display it on the Written Rock website as of Monday. This is the most important business I started, it led to Written Rock. I've put in over a decade of hard work, and no free rides for anyone. Let's .

Some news for our Night Owl fans (make sure to read to the bottom to see the future)... Audioh Canada Presents Inner-Views with Drew: candid conversations with cool people. Episode 01 - Catt Dahman will be released on Friday, October 27 as we cap off Hauntario. Catt is a highly prolific author, although if you were to ask her, she'd claim she "does it for fun." But come on, she's authored more than 40 books and holds an active role as a voting member of the Horror Authors Association. Furthermore, she's the founder of the publishing company JEA Press, making significant contributions to the horror genre across various domains for over three decades with her various stories.

Today, we're here to celebrate her Film Company, Ren Says Films, and their production of five films at different stages of development. However, this episode is not limited to discussing her work. We'll also find out her views on topics like hockey, various types of snow, international stereotypes, and much more. Mark your calendars for this Friday as we unveil our exciting new series, "Inner-Views with Drew."

In the upcoming episodes, we have an exciting lineup of guests and topics to explore. We'll kick things off by having engaging conversations with MidLogic and Keith Macklin, delving into subjects ranging from Edmonton to electricity and everything in between.

Next, we'll sit down with Ryan Harvey Macintyre, the founder of Indie Canada, to discuss his journey in the music industry and various entrepreneurial insights that he, as a fellow founder, can share. Ryan is an inspiring figure who has achieved remarkable success through hard work and humility, and we can't wait to share his story. Our Indie Canada coverage doesn't end there. We'll also have an in-depth discussion with Devious One about his new show, Indie Rotation, the art of vinyl record pressing, and his numerous accomplishments this summer.

In addition, we're thrilled to feature Jeremy Mac and April M. Hill, who will talk about their latest book releases and their current projects and we couldn't be more excited. We'll also raise awareness about epilepsy as we chat with Jasmine, the founder of Leopolds Event Planning, and explore potential surprises for our listeners to get involved in that episode. Our podcast is expanding globally as we take a journey overseas to talk with the Sound of Heartbeatx Team, who are making significant strides in Nigeria and beyond. And if that's not enough, we'll also have a conversation with Iron Wind himself, discussing the monumental task of assembling the 47 Ronin.

Inner-Views with Drew promises to be the podcast you've been eagerly waiting for, where we'll introduce you to the remarkable individuals we've had the privilege to meet, including family and friends who have joined us on this incredible journey. Thank you to everyone that helped us get to this point but it's time to take this to the next level.

Starting next week, we're diving headfirst into the captivating world of Ren Says Films. Our upcoming segments will delve into their movies, explore their profound influence on their audience, and, in general, celebrate the unbridled passion that both the cast and crew pour into the art they create. If you take a moment to click on the link below and browse through the images, you'll see that they're truly having the time of their lives, and that kind of enthusiasm is nothing short of inspiring.

At Written Rock, our driving force is sharing this very passion with an even wider audience because, let's face it, our world could use more of it. Given that Hauntario is a festival dedicated to all things horror, we couldn't have chosen a more fitting group to spotlight and celebrate.

This is just a taste of what's to come, but if you're curious to learn more about Ren Says Films and explore their remarkable body of work, it would mean the world to us, and undoubtedly to them as well. Your support will help spread the love for their art and contribute to the vibrancy of horror that Hauntario represents.

In the depths of the Arkansas Ozarks, a reclusive clan thrives, bound only by their own savage rules. Within their domain, they claim absolute ownership over the land and its inhabitants, showing no mercy to those who dare trespass. Their victims are hunted down like prey, their lives extinguished without remorse.

Amidst this desolate landscape, a group of friends seek solace from their own haunting past. Led by a professor of mineralogy from the University of Central Arkansas, they embark on a sanctioned camping trip. Eager to find respite and field experience, four friends, scarred by a traumatic incident that unfolded in a night club months ago, yearn for healing.

But their serene getaway quickly transforms into an unimaginable nightmare. The horrors they now face dwarf any previous trauma, shattering their fragile sense of safety. As the line between predator and prey blurs, their struggle for survival becomes a harrowing battle against the primal forces that lurk within the heart of the Ozarks.

In this chilling tale of survival and redemption, the boundaries of fear are pushed to their limits, and the resilience of the human spirit is tested against a backdrop of unspeakable terror.

***That was the synopsis for Jeremy Mac's latest literary creation, "Arkansas Woodchipper Massacre." While I haven't had the pleasure of delving into its pages just yet, Jeremy's storytelling prowess has consistently impressed us, and this Halloween season, he treats us to his newest masterpiece. Next week, I'll be immersing myself in its pages and sharing a comprehensive review with you.

If you decide to purchase this book and share your own review, we're thrilled to offer you a unique, custom piece of digital artwork as a token of our appreciation. Regardless of your choice, let's rally together to support one of the most exceptionally talented authors we've had the privilege of collaborating with over the past decade. Don't take our word for it; grab the book, savor the story, and leave your thoughts. In return, you'll receive a captivating read and a one-of-a-kind digital artwork.

As we continue to celebrate Hauntario, stay tuned for a possible treat in the form of a "special Spooky Stories Segment," where we may or may not delve into some of Jeremy's captivating short tales. Enjoy the book and all the thrills it promises to deliver.

TRICK or TREAT... Written Rock is thrilled to introduce an interactive adventure featuring not one, but two distinctive Interactive Stories. Participating in this experience offers you a rare opportunity to shape the very course of these narratives. Every week, on Mondays and Wednesdays, we open the door for our readers to cast their votes and influence the direction of both stories. Meet 'Trick' and its counterpart, 'Treat'—each offering a unique blend of suspense and intrigue. This Halloween season, we don't merely invite you to be passive readers; we implore you to become co-creators. Infuse your creativity, contribute, and witness the collective imagination of our community steer 'Trick' and 'Treat.' Embark on this adventure, and let's co-author these enthralling tales together!

But wait, there's more! We have some exciting plans in the pipeline, and while we're ironing out the finer details, here's a sneak peek: We're preparing for a "Trick or Treat" special where, through your vote, you can nominate someone to receive a delightful surprise or perhaps a playful trick, based on the story you've chosen. Think of it as sending a Halloween-themed valentine, complete with a charming image or a whimsical joke, to the person of your choice. Stay tuned for further updates as we bring this delightful concept to life! And remember, this is a family-friendly event. While some might find it cheesy, most people will appreciate a thoughtful gesture from someone they care about. Whether you send it as yourself or anonymously, the joy it brings remains the same. Visit www.WrittenRock.ca for more details.

We're upholding the tradition of "Your Story," but following Hauntario, we'll be evolving it into "Your Stories" because we now have three tales to share. Our loyal fans are already acquainted with MagnAmero, a narrative crafted through your votes, and we've crafted an exciting second chapter set to be revealed in the future. In honour of Hauntario, we've birthed two brand-new stories: "Trick" and "Treat." These dueling narratives will be shaped by your choices, and the interactive journey commences on Monday, serving as one of our kick-off projects for the celebration. Keep an eye out for the Trick or Treat announcement or visit www.WrittenRock.ca for more details.
