All Saint's Day, Part One

     Drifting out of your sleep, you slowly creak your eyes open as you feel the warmth of life suffuse your limbs, once cold with the rigor of death. Unfolding your arms from over your chest, you look around. Set within a deep tomb, you slowly push yourself to your aching knees, splaying your long fingers wide against the lid of your earthen womb. Pushing, the lid, which should be hard to remove, seems to slide off as if greased, falling to the wayside with a horrendous shatter of stone.

For the Worms

“You know, all this hunting has got me thinking,” Derek said as he bit into the leg of their freshest kill, juices dribbling down his chin.

“Thinking about what?” Monica asked, stoking the fire as she chewed on a fatty section of stomach like tobacco.

“About if I die young,” Derek revealed, earning groans from the other three gathered around the fire.

Post Mortem: The Quiet Ones

     A thriller to say the most, a horror film to say the least, The Quiet Ones paints itself as a new film about a girl that is haunted by some eerie spirit that just won't let her go. The patient, Jane Harper (Olivia Cooke) is a young woman who can make things happen with her mind, which has the scientist in charge of her therapy, Professor Joseph Coupland (Jared Harris) convinced that her paranormal happenings can be channeled away from her physically and psychically, which will purge her of her mental illness. Dr. Coupland approaches cameraman and film student Brian McNeil (Sam Clafin) to film the entire experience. He agrees and so they take to studying the girl and what causes her to react.

Site Update

     The lack of updates in the following week or two is due to a few reasons, so I must apologize in advance. But let me take a chance to explain myself before you tighten the noose around my neck.
     First, I'm currently pushing my novel like a drug peddler on different literary agents to see who can represent me in my hopes of getting published as a novelist. This is a venture that I have been working on for the last two months, but now that I have polished my work to a finer shine I am confident in sending out query letters.
     Second, I am going to be in a few new anthologies coming up. Demonic Visions Four will be coming out in June with a never before seen story of mine, while I will also be published in Sulfurings, a biblical anthology depicting what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah after they were smote from the heavens. This too contains a story that I uniquely crafted for the anthology, so when it is available I will post it up so you can have a read.
     Third, I'm going to begin restocking my personal tomes of new works, works meant for publishers eyes only. I will update the site with new tidbits now and again, but I need to add to my volumes before I can even think of posting like I have been. Post Mortem and other reviews will happen on a regular basis.
     Thank you for your consideration in this matter, and as always,
     Sweet Dreams
