Uncomfortably Dark’s Candace Nola and Author Paul Carro Launch New Horror Anthology Spotlighting Self-Published Talent
An exciting new publishing venture aims to spotlight the year’s best in self-published horror. Submissions open soon for the anticipated 2026 release.
The anthology will be a collaboration between Uncomfortably Dark founder and publisher Candace Nola, and HWA author Paul Carro. The joint venture aims to celebrate the most compelling self-published horror stories of the year.
Self (S)care: Best of the Year Self-Published Horror Stories will serve as both a showcase and a celebration of the unique, fearless storytelling emerging from the self-published scene. Set for release in early 2026, this anthology promises to be a blood-soaked extravaganza highlighting the genre’s boldest rising talent.
“The indie horror scene has grown exponentially in recent years, welcoming a vast array of authors from all walks of life, including many of the most marginalized voices, and they are currently publishing some of the most unique and horrifically creative stories that I’ve read in the last decade,” said Nola. “It is my hope that by working on this project with Paul Carro, that we can shed much needed light on these incredible authors and bring these oft-unrecognized voices to the forefront while hopefully breaking the barriers between traditionally published authors and those that self-publish.”
Paul Carro, who has had success as a self-published author, understands the challenges such authors face to get their work seen. “This new anthology is a unique opportunity to recognize authors who have the courage to embark on the difficult but exciting journey of self-publishing,” said Carro. “I want to shine a spotlight on the amazing quality of work that exists outside of traditional publishing. I am thrilled to do this in partnership with someone as passionate and accomplished as Candace Nola.”
The submission window will open in the coming weeks. Eligible submissions must be self-published between January 1 and December 31, 2025. Full guidelines will be released soon. For updates, follow Uncomfortably Dark on social media or visit Uncomfortablydark.com. Nola and Carro are seeking horror fiction that exemplifies excellence in storytelling and originality in voice. “Being super scary does not hurt either,” said Carro.
This anthology allows self-published authors to be recognized for stories that may have fallen under the radar of a wider readership. As a non-invite anthology, every submission has a chance at being selected for this exciting new book.

Ze względu na różnice w cenach surowce wtórne przegrywają z pierwotnymi. To powoduje problemy branży recyklingowej
Rozporządzenie PPWR stawia ambitne cele w zakresie wykorzystania recyklatów w poszczególnych rodzajach opakowań. To będzie oznaczało wzrost popytu na materiały wtórne pochodzące z recyklingu. Obecnie problemy branży recyklingu mogą spowodować, że popyt będzie zaspokajany głównie przez import. Dziś do dobrowolnego wykorzystania recyklatów nie zachęcają przede wszystkim ceny – surowiec pierwotny można kupić taniej niż ten z recyklingu.

Rośnie presja konkurencyjna na unijne rolnictwo. Bez rekompensat sytuacja rolników może się pogarszać
Rolnictwo i żywność, w tym rybołówstwo, są sektorami strategicznymi dla UE. System rolno-spożywczy, oparty na jednolitym rynku europejskim, wytwarza ponad 900 mld euro wartości dodanej. Jego konkurencyjność stoi jednak przed wieloma wyzwaniami – to przede wszystkim eksport z Ukrainy i niedługo także z krajów Mercosur, a także presja związana z oczekiwaniami konsumentów i Zielonym Ładem. Bez rekompensat rolnikom może być trudno tym wyzwaniom sprostać.

Infrastruktury ładowania elektryków przybywa w szybkim tempie. Inwestorzy jednak napotykają szereg barier
Liczba punktów ładowania samochodów elektrycznych wynosi dziś ok. 10 tys., a tempo wzrostu wynosi ok. 50 proc. r/r. Dynamika ta przez wiele miesięcy była wyższa niż wyniki samego rynku samochodów elektrycznych, na które w poprzednim roku wpływało zawieszenie rządowych dopłat do zakupu elektryka. Pierwszy kwartał br. zamknął się 22-proc. wzrostem liczby rejestracji w ujęciu rocznym, ale kwiecień przyniósł już wyraźne odbicie – o 100 proc.
