\"\"<\/a>Any Last Words podcaster Jo Gonsalves is a creative machine in the horror genre.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Please introduce yourself:
\n<\/strong>My name is Jo Gonsalves and I live in Southern California. I\u2019m an actress, model, director, and podcast host of \u201cAny Last Words\u201d.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What is it that attracts you the horror genre for your chosen field of creative work?
\n<\/strong>I grew up on horror. Everyone in my family loved watching horror movies and tv shows as far back as I can remember. My birthday is the day after Halloween, so that made dark and creepy things that much better.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Who inspires you in your work and in life?
\n<\/strong>My partner. He\u2019s very hard working, motivated, and goal oriented. I like having that in a partner. He\u2019s always been supportive of me and what I do.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What are your passions, cinematic or otherwise?
\n<\/strong>Over all just being an entertainer. But music has always been my biggest passion. I sing and play several instruments. I grew up in a house of musicians.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Considering this is 2022, why do you think we still need a movement like Women in Horror Month?
\n<\/strong>One day I hope this won\u2019t be something we need. Don\u2019t get me wrong, it\u2019s needed. But one day I hope we all are equally on the same page, male or female. Till then, we have to keep lifting one another up. A lot of women are still not being taken seriously or taken advantage of, because we are female.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What would you tell an up-and-coming creative in the world of horror who sees that being a woman\/identifying as a woman as something that makes it so much more difficult at times?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Stay true to yourself and surround yourself with likeminded people. If something doesn\u2019t work out don\u2019t be discouraged. There\u2019s always something else out there better.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What are your favorite bits of helpful advice that you have received about your work or your field?
\n<\/strong>To not worry about what everyone else is doing. A lot of times we get stuck in this Tiktok mode and everyone ends up over saturating with the same topics or ideas. Just do what you want and what interests you. There will always be an audience for it.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In honor of celebrating Women in Horror Month, who do you believe viewers should keep an eye on in terms of the creative ladies in horror?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Me, haha. I\u2019m not one to limit myself, so I\u2019m going to be everywhere.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What do you have coming soon that you can talk to us about?
\n<\/strong>I was recently casted in a horror musical called \u201cMonster Beautiful\u201d and I\u2019m working on more of my Christmas horror anthology \u201cLore\u201d.\u00a0<\/span>
