#Writober Day 28: Underwater Living

I love these haunting images of life underwater. They make me think of Atlantis in decay. Maybe a gritty crime drama set in the underwater city. It makes me think of mermaids, but not The Little Mermaid kind. More like the scary ones from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I looked up scaryContinue reading “#Writober Day 28: Underwater Living”

Interview with Richard C. White about his new book Harbinger Of Darkness!

Some of you may remember way back before #Writober  started, I asked What are you planning for #Writober?

#Writober Day 13: A Well In The Woods

This is one of the wells at Longmire in Mt. Rainier National Park. This well sits directly to the left of the cabin in the woods. The well definitely makes me think of The Ring a great spooky movie for those you doing RIPXII’s Peril on the Screen. Why is this well in the woods?Continue reading “#Writober Day 13: A Well In The Woods”

#Writober Day 8: Hungry Tree In The Military Cemetery

This tree takes me straight to Poltergeist only these gravestones stayed in the cemetery. Any of the Poltergeist movies would be great for those of you doing the RIPXII Peril on the Screen challenge. #vss: very short story He blamed the trees for his losses; roots tripping his men; branches scratching. The trees seek punitiveContinue reading “#Writober Day 8: Hungry Tree In The Military Cemetery”
