‘Love The Sinner’: Fall Into Hell With Mo Moshaty’s New Short Story Collection
Mo Moshaty is a modern horror renaissance woman. She’s a journalist, lecturer, screenwriter, co-founder of the Nyx Horror Collective, and fiction writer, among many other things. Most recently, the multi-talented writer released a new collection of short stories called Love The Sinner, examining the nature of sin. If you’ve loved Moshaty’s previous work, you won’t want to miss this collection from Brigids Gate Press.
Read the full synopsis below:
According to Dante, sin is the misdirection of love—the human will, or essentially, the direction of our beings. Love the Sinner is an examination of just how those sins can kaleidoscope into horrific consequences creating a distorted and deadly landscape. These stories stand stark before you in full glaring misstep and macabre to show the human psyche in all its twisted reality.
From grief and its rage to bleeding a dying man dry to bloody revenge within a quantum leap, these stories seek to solidify one absolute truth: man is the scariest monster.
Moshaty said of the collection, “As I was piecing this collection together, sin by sin, it was apparent to me that the Devil never weighs heavily on any of the stories, and you think he should have at least a small footing in stories regarding sin, but it became apparent that man truly is the scariest monster.”
She added, “We can justify any heinous act, if we’re pushed hard enough. And as odious as these characters can be, I dare you to not see yourself in at least one of them.”
Moshaty is a genre screenwriter, author, and lecturer. With a concentration on psychological and possession horror in her writing, Mo’s background as a Trauma Specialist and Behavioral Therapist provides a sturdy foundation. She’s also a journalist, and co-founder with Nyx Horror Collective, a collective founded by a group of diverse woman-identifying horror creators to develop, celebrate, and elevate original, women-led horror content.
