About River Dixon

River Dixon has unknowingly found himself trapped in the incessant heat and beauty of Arizona. It is here, along with his family, that he finds solace stringing together words in an attempt to find a structure or sequence that may one day make sense of all this. River can be found hanging out at thestoriesinbetween.com where he shares his poetry and short fiction.

Lost in the Hours: a poetry collection Dec 8, 2020

by River Dixon

( 8 )

$2.99

Well, here we find ourselves again. A place most familiar. Some merely visit from time to time, some trapped, others blink in and out. We find the way, occasionally, from these things, but always manage to return. Ever-searching, endlessly, for the tiniest scrap of understanding. So many are tired. Many more would abandon the task if they could. It’s that rotted tooth, prodded with a swollen tongue. The splinter gone unseen, but felt against the tip of an arthritic finger, when brushed, ever so gently. It’s between then and now, here and there, the rise and the fall. Sometimes circular in its containment, other times void of any form or structure. The wondering, the needing, the wanting. Those seemingly insignificant moments that offer the possibility of tomorrow. In it, we find ourselves once again, and when we finally muster the courage to look around us, it is discovered that we are not alone.

by River Dixon

( 14 )

$2.99

WARNING! The following story contains language and graphic depictions of extreme sexual fetish and violence which may offend and disturb some readers.

A little over three years ago, I met the woman of my dreams. Considering who I am, I never thought I would meet another human being that I was compatible with. Then Alicia came into my life like a storm, and we hit it off right from the start. Ours is a story of true love, the kind of love that only comes around once in a lifetime, if ever. Most people will not recognize the beauty of the life we have made together or understand the necessity of our deeds, but that doesn’t matter to us. Because Alicia and I are ready to spread the light of our love across this darkened world, and there is nothing anyone can do to stop us.

$4.99

In honor of indie horror’s best friend, Brad Tierney, we offer this humble tribute of horror-trash-slasher-pron-filth-dripping, wanna touch yourself but know you shouldn’t but do it anyway, degrading, somehow feel-good, I can’t take it anymore but can’t stop reading, it’s turning purple, chest-pounding, lung-splitting, I’m crying . . . Ohh, muh back . . . Muh back . . . Good old-fashioned down-home-crazy, collection of lurid tales.

The Smell Of Cedar Sep 8, 2020

by River Dixon

( 25 )

$2.99

Sarah’s day was already off to a bad start when the arrival of a strange package from an unknown sender sent her spiraling into a state of paranoia. Memories of a tortured childhood in her grandmother’s care taunt her as she tries to piece together the events of the past few months—the events that have led up to this day. She’s convinced that a killer is coming for her, and it’s become a race against time and madness to figure out who is pulling the strings in this game of hunt or be hunted.

Between A Spider's Eyes: an anthology of the macabre Aug 24, 2021

What do you get when you take eight of the most prolific voices on the indie horror scene and barricade them in a cellar for one hundred and seventy-three days with little food or water but unlimited paper and three pens each?

Well, you get a lot of things, let me tell you. Most importantly, once you look beyond the gnawed fingertips, broken ankles, and buckets of feces, you find a collection of stories that in all its depraved glory promises to slowly peel away the almost-healed scabs of what you believed was finally an escape from the revulsion that greets you each morning with open arms. I have looked deep into the corners of what they have to offer, and it is truly disturbing, to say the least.

Now free, Beauregard, Bedlam, Dixon, Ennenbach, Havok, McHardy, Volpe, and Watts invite you to walk with them through levels of psychological terror and extreme horror, ending in a slow waltz with the macabre and bizarre, as they watch from a safe distance, arguing about what is the most efficient way to remove the brain stem from a partially decomposed Appalachian Freemason.

The Stories In Between: A Collection of Dark & Twisted Tales Jun 11, 2019

by River Dixon

( 19 )

$2.99

Tears. Screams. Laughter.

Once we step inside, there’s no choice but to finish the ride.

In this collection of short stories, River Dixon’s unconventional and sometimes controversial style provokes the reader to understand the unimaginable and to relate to the undesirable; to see love and find hope in places from which we’d normally look away from in horror. Our best and worst assumptions of humanity are challenged as we are forced to seek comfort in the uncomfortable; spiraling out of control in the absurdity of the everyday mundane, interlaced with the madness of the unthinkable and the unlikely.

Who knew losing your mind could be this much fun?

Left Waiting: and other poems Oct 8, 2019

by River Dixon

( 16 )

$2.99

In this latest collection of poetry, River Dixon continues his journey into the crevices that exist between the folds of what defines us as human. When we limit our view to only the surface, as we often do, we are left with a narrow understanding of who we are and why we do the things we do. To grow and move forward, this stunted awareness must be stripped away. It’s imperative that we allow ourselves to delve into the places we fear most. Places where the only light that exists is the light we create. It’s from these places we emerge with the strength and hope necessary to bear witness to another day.

Come Looking: and other poems Dec 10, 2021

by River Dixon

( 3 )

$2.99

I guess we’ll try this again. Flailing, grained, encompassed in yet another attempt to recognize our place in all of this. On foot, face down, torn apart. It comes eventually, passing in and out, around, difficult to contain and impossible to ignore.

Again, we grow colder, are left waiting, become lost in the hours. With the hope that one day someone will notice our absence and take the time to come looking. Unafraid of what they may find.

The Hawthorne Project Oct 25, 2021

by tara caribou, River Dixon, Chisto Healy, Lou Rasmus, Mark Ryan, Mark Towse, Joshua Marsella, Robert Birkhofer, Tristan Drue Rogers, Darren Diarmuid

( 1 )

$6.99

Nine houses. Eleven authors. One week.
The neighborhood of west Hawthorne Drive in quiet Greenfield Wisconsin is filled with dark stories and darker rumors. There's the haunting by a faceless creature. They've all seen it. They've all experienced its presence. On the one hand, it seems to desire the life of mortals, on the other, it befriends a small boy. It both mocks and assists. Runs away and stands face-to-faceless face.

And not to mention the mysterious death of the street's namesake, Jim Hawthorne. His strange and reclusive widow peers from behind her drawn curtains, rarely leaving her home, but to walk her little dog or tend her manicured gardens... yet she's not one for giving up any of the cul-de-sac's secrets.

But in the days leading up to Halloween, events take a more sinister turn, including strange visitations, an eerie violet haze in the sky, attempting murder, breaking-and-entering, and multiple police check-ins... until not one of the residents can deny: something or someone is here to stay.

Featuring short stories from River Dixon, Chisto Healy, Tristan Drue Rogers & Sarah Anne Rogers, Lou Rasmus, Mark Ryan, Mark Towse, Joshua Marsella, Darren Diarmuid, Robert Birkhofer, and Jeremiah Fox.

Static Dreams Volume One: A Dark Anthology from Twisted Minds Jun 2, 2020

by tara caribou, A. P. Christopher, River Dixon, Robert Birkhofer, Agyani, Lou Rasmus, Braeden Michaels, M. Ennenbach, Mark Ryan

( 2 )

$4.49

Within the dark mindscape of our twisted dreams come tales of revenge and righteous vindication, deep-seated mistrust and hidden truths brought into the light. Where a young woman is able to sift through the minds of her enemies and destroy them through sheer thought before they can consume her. Where a man only allowed to speak a mere one hundred words carries out grim assigned tasks before death comes for him. And where a group of sweet old ladies may just as easily ring up your purchase as invite you to tea and cake, which just might turn out to be your very last meal.

So dim down your lights and clutch your blankets to your chin, for tonight you'll find yourself wrapped up deep in these sweet static dreams.

Featuring nine short stories written by A.P. Christopher, River Dixon, Robert Birkhofer, Agyani, Lou Rasmus, Braeden Michaels, M. Ennenbach, Mark Ryan and tara caribou.

Static Dreams Volume Two: A Dark Anthology from Twisted Minds Jun 2, 2020

by tara caribou, Patrick Walts, River Dixon, Sam Kirk, Christopher Allen Waldrop, M. Ennenbach, Mark Towse, Mark Ryan, Bobby Blade, Chris Nelson

( 2 )

$4.49

Shadows twist over our night terrors, bringing with them more tales of haunted pasts, hidden futures, broken promises, and the blood necessary to hold it all together. Where a plot of land seeks to have its grisly appetite sated in return for rich rewards. Where a faceless man stands watching helplessly as the lives of those around him slip past through the years, ever-repeating, always connected yet separate. And where a pair of boys come face to face with the dark secrets of their sleepy seaside town, their own initiation rite now unavoidable.

Light the candles and say your prayers, this night may just smother you. Or keep your eyes wide open, for it might be your salvation from these distorted static dreams.

Featuring nine dark short stories by Patrick Walts, River Dixon & tara caribou, Sam Kirk, Christopher Allen Waldrop, M. Ennenbach, Mark Towse, Chris Nelson, Bobby Blade and Mark Ryan.
