Expecting things to get #weird as usual watching the @newkirkmuseum Christmas Eve livestream tonight. But I really hope Derek decides to join the festivities. Seems like a fun dude. #iykyk #paranormal #estesmethod #illustration @nuekerk @Weird_Dana

I didn’t set out in 2023 to become a #horror #author who also goes on #paranormal investigations, but here we are. In a week, I’ll be on my fourth investigation, and the first one that I’ve run on my own. Can’t wait to share the experience here! #ghosts #paranormalinvestigator

[L. David Hesler @LDHesler]

My newest print #book, “Where Shadows Prey,” is available now on #Amazon. It’s a fast-paced story full of #horror, as well as some #scifi elements. If you like mind-bending #lovecraftian terror, you’ll be pleased. Order it now or get the #ebook today!

You know your #creative life has taken an interesting turn when you find yourself having serious conversations about the best local #graveyards for conducting a #paranormal investigation. #ghosts #research #novel #amwriting #paranormalinvestigator #halloween

I’m looking forward to the next time I get to do this, and I can’t wait to share this #novel about #ghosts with you next year.

In the name of research for an upcoming #supernatural novel to be released in 2023, I spent the night at The 1889 McInteer Villa this weekend. It is very #haunted and the whole night was, in a word, AWESOME. #spirits

In addition to relevant responses during the #Estes session, I felt physical manifestations that included stomping sensations on the floor around my chair and what felt like fingers tapping my hand.

@Weird_Dana Your perspective on the paranormal world, and spirituality in particular, continues to inspire me. #TheUnbinding is such a great film. Two days later and I’m still astonished. 🙌

[L. David Hesler @LDHesler]

The #paranormal documentary “The Unbinding” is spooky, striking, & sincere; but above all, it is so incredibly beautiful. @WeirdHQ @nuekerk @Weird_Dana

[L. David Hesler @LDHesler]

My #ebook “Where Shadows Prey” is free on #Amazon for the next five days! If you’re a fan of #horror stories, you’ll love this mind-bending tale of #Lovecraftian terror set in a world where the #multiverse exists. Get it now at https://t.co/EJWh5gOxb8

@thecreativepenn During the pandemic, as my output slowed, I got it into my head that I MUST outline my work. I recently did a marathon listen of your podcast and realized I’m a discovery writer. Yesterday I blasted through 8 chapters of a new #book. Thanks for the inspiration!

[L. David Hesler @LDHesler]

I’ve slashed the prices of three of my ebooks on #Amazon for #CyberMonday. They’ll go back to regular price on Wednesday evening and are at their cheapest today only. There’s a little something for everyone, so go to https://t.co/lpnsIY6G85 to learn more! #ebooks #indieauthor

If your life is a plot in someone else’s #novel, what #author would you like to be calling the shots? Bonus: what’s the big twist? #WritingCommunity #amwriting

Day 2 of #inktober: “Scurry.” Dante, of my Three Little #Zombies, has a detachable arm that’s known around town by the nickname “Scurry.” It has a mind of its own & it tends to go on its own adventures if Dante gets distracted. #inktober2022 #inktober #kidsbooks #childrensbooks

[L. David Hesler @LDHesler]

For the first #inktober prompt (Gargoyle), I present Gary. He lives in on top of the local library and he loves playing tag with the Three Little Zombies. Prompt 2 is coming later today! #inktober2022 #childrensbooks #kidsbooks #amdrawing #inkdrawing
