Book Description

Five Flash Fiction horror pieces, all under 1000 words.

Each piece also includes a brief afterword from the author with a bit of background on where he got the idea for the story.

A little insight into the life and mind of a horror writer.

Approx. 7000 words (roughly 28 pages)

Includes:
- "The Professional Crier"
The tears of high school outcast Penny Circe can bring back the dead. At least temporarily.

- "I Spy With My Little Eye"
Anthony Monsano has gone through hell to finally find himself in possession of the round box. The question is, what’s inside?

- "Run, Rabbit. Run."
Pete Cantrell hates jackrabbits. Unfortunately, his home is surrounded by them. And something else as well.

- "The Death He Expected"
A group of boys on a midnight, full moon trip to an Indian burial site get more than just a practical joke.

- "Another Oldie But Goodie"
Retirement home resident Margaret Daniels is hearing music that no one else can hear, a song she hasn’t heard in almost 50 years.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Read November 7, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This was my first flash fiction read and I was pleasantly surprised. It was kind of like reading a creative writing assignment, but the author is really good at it. My personal favorite was Run, Rabbit. Run. Really cool story that got my imagination going wild. I also liked Another Oldie But Goodie. Great for when your attention span is lacking but you're looking for something entertaining. Check it out!

Very, very enjoyable. It was worth the time I took to read it (which required very little). I recommend this title for those who believe they are too busy to enjoy reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Nice Introduction Into Flash Fiction June 25, 2012
By J Crook
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I can't say I've read much flash fiction, but this take here on it was definitely interesting. The stories were short, as the genre suggests, but as the author mentions, it creates a consolidation of thought and writing that can still be very enjoyable without a lot of investment.

Definitely give this one a read, and as usual, you can't beat the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Freaky Flash Fiction
I love flash fiction because you get a good story without much time invested. To pack such intensity in so few words is just as difficult as polishing a full-length novel. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Tales where readers add details
