UNBOUND (novel) - A missing writer, an unfinished novel and a supernatural stalker are just a few of the ingredients in this stew of madness. The search for a killer's true identity pierces reality's veil and reveals a world where tall tales and fictional horrors live and breathe.

Voice – Have you ever been awakened in the dead of night by what you thought was a voice?

Saligia - The end of the world disrupts a serial killer's day.

Ministry – You can preview this one at Bewildering Stories, where it was selected for their Quarterly Review. It's the story of two girls, two ghosts and dozens of homicidal tomcats.

Clowns – "A clown may be amusing in a circus ring, but what would be your reaction to opening you door and finding that same clown on your front step at midnight?" (Lon Chaney, Sr.)

Peelin’ Ernie – A fable about why never to pick up hitchhikers. Or hitchhike.

Exhibit – Old friends are reunited, romance rekindled and, just maybe, a demon resurrected.

Mother Tree – A different kind of Hell awaits those who die in the shadow of the cursed old tree.

The Devil’s Due - A dead PI walking the streets of Purgatory takes on an unusual new client.

Nice breakdown of the stories, by the way.  There's nothing like breaking a tale down to a one-sentance teaser.

As we near publication, I should mention that I was recently voted Choate Road's 2009 Spotlight Scribe for the story "Mother Tree," which appeared on Choate Road last August and is now in UNBOUND!

I ought to mention that the story which eventually grew into UNBOUND started as a writing assignment some ten or eleven years ago. It was a 1200-word tale about a miserable writer who receives an unexpected visitor. It was a bit like the myth of Pygmalion, only in this version Pygmalion throws his work into the trash. And rejection is a bitch, as we all know – even more so, it turns out, when the story itself takes offense.

With some tweaks, the finished novel picks up where that story ends. I still have the story, too - someday I'll get up the nerve to post it. ;)

Seeing these characters in print today and recalling their origins is a strange and wonderful feeling. Thanks to Doc for making it happen.
