Los
Angeles, CA, February 1, 2013 – The third annual Women in Horror Month is now
upon us with dozens of ambassadors and events! WiHM is a part of the Viscera
Organization, a 501(c)3 not-for-profit, and aims to simultaneously support and
celebrate underrepresented female artists in the horror genre across the globe
while educating the public on the impediments that female artists face.
While
the festivities culminate in February of each year, Women in Horror Month also
spotlights the creative endeavors of female artists all year long in articles,
social media, and its brand-new podcast. Guests on the first episode include
filmmakers Jovana Dimitrijevic, Rebekah McKendry, Rebekah Herzberg, and Tonjia
Atomic, Sandra Katsuri from ChiZine Publishing, musician Ghettosongbird, Fem
Furry and Meredith Widnoon of The Whorer Podcast, as well as Chelsea and Ava of
La Petite Morgue.
Women
in Horror Month February 2013 events take place both online (podcasts,
interviews, blog series and discussions) and at actual venues, and include
giveaways, artist gatherings, film screenings, and more. Women in Horror Month
donates all proceeds to charity and all events feature the “pink kiss” WiHM
Seal of Approval, created to ensure that all events, media, and online material
are official and philanthropic. The WiHM Seal was graciously donated by Rue
Morgue Magazine.
The
full roster of 2013 sponsors include: ChiZine Publications, NikytaGaia
Photography, Hot Chick Physics, Sourpuss, Diabolique Magazine, Rue Morgue
Magazine, Too Fast Apparel, The Dark Art of Mike Vanderhoof, Ghettosongbird,
Matt Orsman, Irene Langhorn, and Fangoria Magazine.
