Comments:
  • The Horror Writers Association (HWA) is a worldwide organization of writers and publishing professionals dedicated to promoting the interests of writers of Horror and Dark Fantasy. It was formed in the 1980's with the help of many of the field's greats, including Joe Lansdale, Robert McCammon, and Dean Koontz. HWA now has members throughout the United States, Canada, South America, the Caribbean, Europe, and Australia. (from the HWA's web site, 2000)
  • The Bram Stoker Awards are given for achievements in the horror writing genre since 1988. While film and TV related achievements were occasionally nominated in the 'other media' category in 1994 and 1999, a 'screenplay' category has been introduced in 1999 and been dropped after the ceremony in 2005.
