Yesterday, my four-year old son asked me to tell him a story about the bad guy that gets killed. It was about as long as yours, though yours has a little more action!

It was actually 8 stories as 2 were excerpts, but don't bother. Really bad, poorly edited, and not scary at all. I'm about giving up on Endeavor Press because of their lack of editing.

Free from Permuted Press - Valley of the Dead by Kim Paffenroth.

Quote:
Working from Dante’s Inferno to draw out the reality behind the fantasy, author Kim Paffenroth unfolds the horrifying true events that led Dante to fictionalize the account of his lost years…

For seventeen years of his life, the exact whereabouts of the medieval Italian poet Dante Alighieri are unknown to modern scholars. It is known that during this time he traveled as an exile across Europe, working on his epic poem, The Divine Comedy. In his masterpiece he describes a journey through the three realms of the afterlife. The most famous of its three volumes, Inferno, describes hell.

During his lost wanderings, Dante stumbled upon an infestation of the living dead. The unspeakable acts he witnessed —cannibalism, live burnings, evisceration, crucifixion, and dozens more—became the basis of all the horrors described in Inferno. Afraid to be labeled a madman, Dante made the terrors he experienced into a more “believable” account of an otherworldly adventure filled with demons and mythological monsters.

But at last, the real story can finally be told.

1) Always write 3 sentences of exposition; 2) now create some dialogue, preferably no more than 2 sentences; and 3) make certain the dialogue is either inane or humorous. Example:
“Bob, I did not know you wore yellow suspenders,” Sally remarked.
“Gee, Sally, those are not suspenders. I am wearing yellow underwear today,” Bob revealed.
The dialogue above will help produce at least 100 more pages of dialogue.

Thank you for all the freebies you've been posting. Very much appreciated!

Fishing in Brains for an Eye with Teeth by William Markly O'Neal is currently free for Kindle. Includes a short story published in Weird Tales.

Quote:
"Fishing in Brains for an Eye with Teeth" is a collection of Thirteen Tales of Terror, all written by William Markly O'Neal.

Featured are two previously published stories: 'Bob Bodey’s Body Parts', which originally appeared in Weird Tales magazine, Issue #346; and 'Sensory Desolation', which was first published in Cover of Darkness, (from Sam’s Dot Publishing) in May of 2011.

In 'Bob Bodey's Body Parts,' a man finds he can purchase Real functioning Body Parts from a vending machine. WARNING: Real means Real!

In 'Sensory Decimation', the Sheriff of a rural Indiana County gets some help tracking down a serial killer. His benefactors are five mysterious psychics... who don't tell the Sheriff the terrible price he'll pay for their assistance.

Other stories in this collection include…. 'www.$ellYerSoul2Satan.hel', the tale of a man who gets the girl the old fashioned way: by selling his soul to the Devil; 'The Legend of Bullet Lake', a ghost story that turns deadly for five young men on a hunting trip; 'Crimson House', answering the timeless question, "What happens to successful serial killers when they get old?”; 'The Night Lightning Strikes Paintersville', a place where madness manifests itself in art; 'Edgar Alan Poem Meets Elizabeth Barrett Brownie', where a monster stalks a single mom using the Internet; 'She Dreams of Murder', the story of a man who hears his sleeping wife talk about killing him; and 'I Was a Teenage Beehive', a tragic tale that just might give you a buzz.

There are also four pieces of flash fiction. Even the worst monsters have 'Embarrassing Secrets'. Even perfect machines experience 'System Failure'. Truth or Dare makes for fun 'Graveside Games'. And when the Emergency Broadcast System declares, “THIS IS NOT A TEST!” shouldn’t we listen?

These horror stories contain profanity, gore, graphic violence, and some sexual situations.

William Markly O’Neal is a proud member of the Horror Writer’s Association. He is on Twitter @WilliamMarklyON. Follow him on Facebook at www.facebook.com/WilliamMarklyONeal… if you dare.
And, Don, the stories appear to be full length.

I got Fishing in Brains for an Eye with Teeth. The title is certainly intriguing, in a disgusting sort of way that I like. Thank you!

I'll read this one in the bathroom, where the light is so bright I sometimes think I'm in surgery.

Free at Amazon,
These are currently free, by two authors I highly recommend:

Ronald Malfi, The Ascent (listed as Thriller Suspense, but the author usually writes horror)
http://www.amazon.com/The-Ascent-Sur...s=ronald+malfi

Gord Rollo, Valley of the Scarecrow

Free from Permuted Press - Eleven Twenty-Three by Jason Hornsby.

Quote:
Layne Prescott, a former high school teacher returning to America after months of living abroad, meets a strange man in a Shanghai airport and ends up carrying a mysterious briefcase with an attached wrist shackle home with him. Back in the small town of Lilly's End, Layne must cope with more than just the effects of his past indiscretions and his recently deceased father's funeral. Each day at precisely 11:23, the small town of Lilly's End sinks into violent chaos, and people are dying. Cut off from the rest of the world by a strict military quarantine and with the population in rapid decline, Layne and his friends wait with dread as the clock ticks downward.

A reviewer says I should read this in a locked room.

Unfortunately, I consider it very troublesome that every time I decide to read this, I must get up and lock my room. And which room is he talking about? The kitchen? The master bedroom? The bathroom - and this is where I read with the light out, which another person suggested I do before reading that ebook!

I suppose reading on the terrace is completely out of the question, as there is no lock to contend with unless, of course, he means I should lock myself out of my own house.

What's next? I should read only in my dinner jacket? Or wearing only my underwear?

I'm really very confused right now, because I would like to read this book.
