It is the highlight of my horror writing career to have "A Scream Before Dawn" presented by Shelby Scott on her Scare You to Sleep Podcast.
She did an incredible job bringing the story to life in the way that only she knows how to do. You can find episode 116: Dance Again here, where the story begins at abou tthe 19 minute mark.
Check out everything else Scare You to Sleep has to offer at their website, and on Twitter and Instagram.
Happy Friday, and keep it spooky,

Be forewarned... my story "Vultures of the Aftermath" is coming to you soon in the 50th issue of Sirens Call eZine. Hard times call for desperate measures for a mortician and his family struggling to make ends meet in a small town. The issue is still cooking, but you'll find it here when it's ready!

P.S. What does DBND stand for? Down But Not Dead. Awesome.
It took too long for me to come up with a title for this post.
Here we are with days creeping into weeks and now falling into potential months of quarentine. If there's one good thing I can say, it's that quarentine keeps the scalpers away. I went to my local Target--not to buy toilet paper--and came across NECA's beautiful two-set of Bebop and Rocksteady based off of the 1980s/1990s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon. They're usually swept up by guys who sell them online for twice the price, and I can't begin to express how excellent it is to catch one of these in the wild.
Points for finding something rare in its natural habitat and bonus points for starving the scalpers of an opportunity (hey, we take small victories where we can find them).
Cheers and keep it spooky,

I ventured over to Inner Child Comics and Collectibles today to swap some goods with Steve Kahn. I traded in a few miscelaneous items and picked up these two bad boys here. The Invisible man was a bonus, but to get the Diamond Select Creature from the Black Lagoon with Kay Lawrence was a dream come true. I had just lost my second or third Ebay attempt (Heinrich von Wolfcastle is not Ebay-savy) for one of these when I found it in his shop in even better condition along with a gauntet of other collectibles from just about every decades and genre of interest. Man, I wish Steve had a formal website I could share with you. All I can say is, if you're ever in the Kenosha area, seek it out!
