Yesterday the Royal City Literary Arts Society (RCLAS) published two of my pieces in its online magazine, Wordplay at Work (read them here). The first piece is called More Regard for Dogs (page 18). The RCLAS awarded me an honourable mention in the non-fiction category of their Write On! Contest 2022 for this piece, which discusses violence against women in film. The second piece, entitled The Columbia Witches, is a Halloween story set in Revelstoke, BC, and can be found on page 44. Happy Halloween! Copyright © 2022 Alline Cormier

My new article in Feminist Current shines a spotlight on the Halloween franchise and Universal Studios' Halloween-themed haunted houses in Orlando and Hollywood (read it here).

Copyright © 2022 Alline Cormier  Yesterday Women Making Films published my article on Halloween horror classics, a roadmap of sorts for female viewers (read it here). In this article I discuss Psycho (1960), The Exorcist (1973), Carrie (1976), Halloween (1978), The Shining (1980) and Friday the 13th (1980), shining a spotlight on some of the ways they fail female viewers.
