The following is my latest blog post on my author website. Our official book launch is on Halloween Day so I need to get the word out. If you'd like to access my author blogpost go: HERE.

Halloween Day signals the release of Xchyler Publishing’s latest, Shades And Shadows, A Paranormal Anthology. One of the nine stories contained in the book is mine.
A little about my story, Split Ends. I’ve never written a
paranormal story even though I find the subject fascinating. So when
Xchyler announced the theme of paranormal for their next anthology, I
started to think about what I could contribute to the project. I thought
about relationships and that led me to what ultimately became Split Ends.
The story revolves around two people, people who have known each
other for decades. It’s set in a beauty salon (something else I have
little experience in…). Since I lack experience writing in the genre, I
felt I couldn’t “out scare” or “out gore” the other submissions. I
wanted my story to be different from the other short stories, and I was
right.
Over the last month on my daily blog, ScottyWattyDoodleAllTheDay.Blogspot.com,
I reviewed each of the stories in the book, except mine. My reviews
were not extensive–I didn’t want to give away too many spoilers. I tried
to give some honest opinions and flavor of each story. They’re all so
different, so I suppose my tale fits right in.
If you’re interested in ghost stories that contain both the expected and unexpected, check out Shades And Shadows, A Paranormal Anthology. You can find the Amazon like to the book: HERE. I’d love to hear what you think out how it all turned out.
