My name is T. E. Woodard

And I welcome you to my small plot of the internet. I’m a horror author with a penchant for scarring the minds of characters and allowing discomfort to linger for both them and my audience. There are fates far worse than death, after all.

All of my e-format works are available for free, typically through PDF downloads or the occasional post on other websites. Enjoyment of literature shouldn’t be gated by economic factors, so read and share to your heart’s content. I do also have paperback/hardback versions available of some things for about as low-cost as I can reasonably make them if that’s your sort of thing.

Social Media

I’ve fallen off of social media for the most part after realizing I spent way too much time on it. That said, if you want to follow me on them, I’d prefer you at least have the correct links on the off chance someone tries to impersonate me.
