The Cemetery
A call from beyond...
You’ve been summoned one and all once again by a voice from the crypt. It’s another Monday spent at The Cemetery, a promotional event for all our macabre writers.
Here’s how it works:
Writers, insert a link to your work in the comments. Be sure to share no more than two pieces.
Readers, visit the comment section to browse the work of many talented writers.
In an effort to keep it organized and easy to spot what you are looking for, follow the below guidelines to help everyone out!
Key:
🦇- If you are a reader, or a writer, and have a question for anyone, begin your comment with a bat and then follow it with your question.
💀- If you are sharing work(s) that are short stories, begin the comment with a skull and follow it with your favorite paragraph from the story.
🪦- If you are sharing work(s) that are serialized stories, begin the comment with a tombstone and follow it with a pitch of your stories plot, characters, etcetera.
🥀- If you are sharing work(s) of poetry, begin the comment with a wilted rose and follow it with your favorite line or two from your poem.
👻- If you are sharing work(s) that include essays, reviews or anything else that is not mentioned above, begin the comment with a ghost and follow it with a description of what you are promoting.
With that, please have fun!

Be sure to check out these notes from last week’s Macabre Monday!
I love when I don't have anything to contribute for a particular Macabre Monday, knowing that this community is nevertheless going to produce dozens of thoughtful pieces every single week.
The Devil's Compass is a chilling short story to get to know Monster of the Week!
Since birth, I had possessed a dreadful sixth sense. My body could sense evil souls, and it insisted on taking me right to them. This usually occurred right before they were about to commit a most heinous act. As the sun began to set on this cooler than normal summer day, I felt more than certain that I was about to come face-to-face with an evil of a greater magnitude that I had ever seen before. That was saying a great deal since I had faced astounding evil repeatedly from a very young age.
