So, as most of you know I usually write adventure, steampunk, science fiction, science fact and humor. Recently, I have penned a few short stories to submit to our upcoming horror anthology. (yes, my stories are tossed in the bin anonymously too, they have to get voted in). Writing horror does not come naturally to me, so it has been a challenge for me to get into that dark place. Now, I know I have been successful…
Case in point, picking up food at Costco today for visitors over the holiday. I see a young man of around thirty, loading big boxes of Clorox Bleach onto a cart that has like twenty industrial sized rolls of Paper towels. The only other thing in the cart is a few snacks. My first thought – “That man is going to kill someone today, and is buying paper towels and bleach to clean up the crime scene!” Seriously, that is what popped into my head in the Costco aisle today.
Last night and today I am working on my upcoming novel Blood Bank – a post-apocalyptic vampire novel. I wonder if I will start noticing pale people or looking at necks for bite marks.
