“Bad Advice” is brought to you in large part by by my patrons , who received an early, expanded version of this episode. You can join our Fabulist community with a pledge as low as $3 a month!
The most recent “Main Character” on Writing Twitter is doling out the bad advice: a woman flat out said horror can’t happen in space. If the story is in space, no matter how scary, she argues, it’s automatically science fiction.
This means space beats zombies, if you’re keeping score. Also, cross-genre isn’t a thing apparently.
Now, aside from bringing the Internet down on your head when you say stuff like this, blanket advice is harmful in other ways, too.
