Sara Century

That’s right, I do video now! I’ve worked on a lot of video projects over the years and opted to make it official so that I can focus more on that. I hit a definite ceiling with article writing and have needed to move away from that as my main source of income for a while. Fortunately, there’s a need for engaging narrative videos that are aesthetically pleasing, and that is a lot more my speed these days.

You can check out the website or you can follow on Instagram! I have had a very sparse presence online as of late, but it comes and goes with me so there will be more posts on the horizon. Best of all, you can always subscribe to the newsletter I send out semi-regularly to get all kinds of updates sent right to your inbox.

“Century’s fiction packs the potency of a nightmare that haunts the mind long after one has woken. She weaves dark poetry out of her character’s relationships and crafts imagery designed to unsettle and inspire awe in equal measure. These stories whisper in your ear in the dark of night, and you will find yourself welcoming their insidious omens with outstretched arms.” – Brendan Vidito (Pornography for the End of the World)

“Sara Century writes with subtle intensity and care. In a genre often extreme, alien, and operatic, her horror stories drop us into the small center of our familiar, vulnerable human core and send ripples spreading outward, enlarging gradually to create a total emotional effect. A Small Light is a book full of dark awakenings.” – Joe Koch (The Wingspan of Severed Hands, Convulsive)

Clare McBride and I write a humor column in which we discuss the possible zodiac signs of fictional characters. The most recent is Birds of Prey, but we’ve been at it for many, many months and there’s a ton of reading out there for you. https://www.syfy.com/tags/star-signs

I recently have been doing some scripting work for SYFY’s Behind The Panel series, and it’s incredibly fun. I scripted this Harley episode, and I’m so stoked on it. https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/how-did-harley-quinn-become-a-pop-culture-icon

The Forgotten Women of Genre podcast through SYFYFANGRRLS is celebrating its second season. Last season I scripted some episodes, this season I worked as a researcher.

My short story, “Red Lips in a Blue Light,” appears in this extremely fun anthology focusing on tales inspired by the weirdness of director David Cronenberg.

I was on the Battle of the Atom podcast (self-described as “the second or third most popular X-Men podcast on the internet)! We discussed leadership in the X-Men, which gave me the opportunity to go full fangirl on Storm, Emma, and Jean. http://www.xavierfiles.com/2019/12/09/battle-of-the-atom-all-the-best-x-men-are-women-with-sara-century/
