Serial Saturday: [Horror] A Snap of the Fingers #5

Saturday again and time for another instalment of my story A Snap of the Fingers. This was a difficult story for me to write, because the main character is a ten year old boy, and when I was developing the idea for the story, my son was just a year or so older than SETH …

Saturday rolls around quicker each week. I'm going to start buying stuff for Halloween soon. But until then, I've got part 2 of my horror short story A Snap of the Fingers. Think I said this last time, but Snap is one of my favourites. It's probably the one that makes me feel most uncomfortable, …

Serial Saturday: [Horror]I’m Watching You #4

Good morning! This week it has actually snowed in the UK. I know it's nothing in comparison to what's going on in Chicago and other places down at -30c (which is ridiculous, by the way), but even a light dusting of snow is exciting over here! I'm not sure how my wheelchair will cope with …
