Hello, and hope everyone is doing fine. Today's post will be short and sweet--just telling about my chapbook of four ghost stories published by Naked Snake Press ( http://nakedsnakepress.com ). All four stories in Beyond the Four Walls are set in the tradional form, no gore, but more on atmosphere. I wanted to capture for the reader that if you dare to peek out of the side of your eye you just might catch something darting around the corner scared feeling. I think a more unsettled feeling that'll last when you go to sleep in your bed then pages of ripped bodies and splashing blood will ever do. Right now you can get it at http://www.nakedsnakepress.com/CATALOG.html, and also at http://www.lulu.com/content/269636 , both in print and electronic form, and at Project Pulp in print only: http://projectpulp.com/item_detail.asp?bookID=803213894 . Hopefully soon it'll be for sale at Shocklines.com, too. So check it out if you like ghost stories.
BLURB: Ghosts haunt more than houses and aren’t always bound by four walls as proven by the four stories in Beyond the Four Walls. In “Spectre Dreams and Visitations”, Sherry buys an old book of ghost stories at a yard sale for some good reading and finds that it results in something far more than she can handle or even wants. And haunting proves to be a dusty business for one reporter staying the last night of a reputedly haunted movie theater before its demolition in “Gray Dust.” “Hard Drive Haunting” reveals to a young woman that surfing the Internet does even more terrifying damage to her life than a computer virus to her computer. And in the last ghostly tale, “Call in the Night”, a woman finds that the call she’s been receiving each night is definitely more than a wrong number.
I'll be part of a chat with fellow Chippewa Publishing romance authors on Sunday, June 11, 2006. My chat time will be Noon to 1PM. EST at the CataNetwork listgroup. The link the chat is http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CataNetwork-Readers/ .
