Sad news about a former speaker at Rural Gothic.

This post is unavailable.

Big news! @DeadsetP will be publishing my #gothic novella about a weird group of women in a weird building during a #Melbourne heatwave.

Our first announcement of 2023 is that Deadset Press will be publishing @madeleine_deste's novella 'RADCLIFFE' in the coming months. Madeleine is horror author whose writing is beautiful and powerful, and the characters and mystery in this gothic novella will surely draw you in.
