… Create a habit of prioritizing writing. Whether it’s a little bit every day, or a massive weekend writing binge every few months, test out different methods until you find what works for you.

As part of my interview series on the five things you need to know to become a great author, I had the pleasure of interviewing KC Grifant. KC Grifant is an award-winning Southern Californian author who writes internationally published horror, fantasy, science fiction and weird west stories for podcasts, anthologies and magazines. Her tales have appeared in Andromeda Spaceways Magazine, Unnerving Magazine, Cosmic Horror Monthly, Dark Matter Magazine, the British SF Association’s Fission Magazine, Tales to Terrify, the Lovecraft eZine, and many others. In addition to a Weird West novel, MELINDA WEST: MONSTER GUNSLINGER (Brigids Gate Press, Feb 2023), she has also written for dozens of anthologies, including Chromophobia; Musings of the Muse; Dancing in the Shadows — A Tribute to Anne Rice; Field Notes from a Nightmare; The One That Got Away; Six Guns Straight From Hell; Shadowy Natures; Beyond the Infinite — Tales from the Outer Reaches; and the Stoker-nominated Fright Mare: Women Write Horror.
