Veterans in Horror Spotlight 2023: Chance Fortune

Chance Fortune Biography

I’m an active service member and noncommissioned officer in the Army National Guard with twelve years of service and one tour overseas to the Middle East and Southeast Asia. I have a degree in writing and media communication from the University of Wisconsin, followed by five years as a broadcast journalist. I also serve as a co-chair for the Veterans in Horror chapter of The Horror Writers Association and contribute bi-monthly to their newsletter. Currently, I work as a digital marketing and communications coordinator for one of Oregon’s largest nonprofits. I’ve self-published one debut novel and am currently seeking representation for two others.

Book Recommendation: In the Web of the Spider Queen

I’d be remiss if I didn’t take this time to promote my debut novel In the Web of the Spider Queen. This novel is not military related though I do take some inspiration from my knowledge of combat casualty care and firearms to add some level of realism and horror to the story. If you like haunted houses, cursed towns, creepy crawlies, and cult horror then this is the book for you.
