About Me and M.R.

My photo
Joe Nazare
I'm a former college professor (Ph.D., NYU) whose teaching and research often focused on American Gothic literature. My love for the Gothic, though, first developed as a child. I grew up on Scooby-Doo cartoons, Universal Monster movies, innumerable games of Clue, the books of Stephen King (and then anything in the horror genre I could get my hands on), The Silence of the Lambs and The X-Files. Perhaps not surprisingly, I work today as a writer in the horror/dark crime genres; my fiction and poetry can be found online and in print, in magazines and anthologies such as Shroud, Pseudopod, Harvest Hill, Death in Common, and Vicious Verses and Reanimated Rhymes. My short story "Midnights Drearier" (an American Gothic riff on "The Raven") is available as an ebook from Damnation Books (www.damnationbooks.com). I've formed this daily blog to express my passion for American Gothic, but I also hope to build a community of fellow aficionados--those who readily inhabit, and travel undaunted through, the Macabre Republic.

CONSTITUTION

"But, irreverently consorting with these grave, reputable, and pious people, these elders of the church, these chaste dames and dewy virgins, there were men of dissolute lives and women of spotted fame, wretches given over to all mean and filthy vice, and suspected even of horrid crimes. It was strange to see, that the good shrank not from the wicked, nor were the sinners abashed by the saints."--Nathaniel Hawthorne, "Young Goodman Brown"
