Blind Alleys and Old Fools

I just wanted to let you all know that I have a new collection of short stories available at the Amazon Kindle Store. It's a collection of ten stories called Blind Alleys and Old Fools: Ten Tales for Fans of Horror, Suspense, and Weird Fiction.

Here is the cover image:

If you are a fan of horror, please check it out. (If you are at all on the fence about it, please keep in mind that the sample provided by Amazon is big enough to let you read the entire first story for free.)

Here is the complete list of all ten stories:

The Devil on the Line
The Night the Lights Went Out in Cincinnati
The Phantom of Fire Station #3
A Room for Rent in Rocky River
The Long Way to Losantiville
What Lurks Beneath the Waters
Curse of the Melonheads
The Beast With Orange Eyes
The Outhouse
The Moonville Tunnel Incident

Whether you like your horror slow-burning and psychological or fast, weird, and full of teeth, there’s something in this collection for you. These stories were written to entertain, unsettle, and maybe even stick with you a little longer than you'd like. I hope you'll give Blind Alleys and Old Fools a read—and if you do, let me know what you think. Just don’t blame me if you start hearing things that go bump in the night.

It's Alive!

Sorry for the extended absence. I've been mostly and Twitter lately and it's been so long since I posted anything here that figuring out how to even log in took some doing. More to come very soon, I hope.

Hmm...

I seem to be having some technical difficulties. Lately, whenever I post something here from Storify, it seems to display fine for a moment and then reverts to an older Storify story for some reason. The reason I started posting Storify stories here was so I could link to them on Twitter without having to deal with the weird stuff that was happening when I link directly to Storify on Twitter. But it looks like the original issue has been fixed, so for now maybe I'll just go back to keeping my Tweets of the Week posts on Storify. In the meantime I should probably come up with something to blog about here once in a while to keep this place from gathering dust.
