Oh, its not coming, it's here!

No problem, thank you for contributing to Macabre Monday! I love what you put out last Monday. I may have shared it just for my hatred of Mr. Meaty...

True story: I was at a Walgreens store once where they had a collection of Sally figurines; I, erm, accidentally dropped and broke its head off.

Fortunately we are still together, even if the Sally figurine isn't.

Luckily the same rules as "step on a crack and break your mothers back" did not apply here.

Good luck to everyone who enters the contest.

Thanks for including my *ahem* totally real ghost and including some laughter with the scares.

What a great theme for the next writing contest! Proprioception. It brought a short story by Stephen King immediately to mind. Has anyone else read "Autopsy Room 4"? Talk about anxiety-building!

The theme should be very fun for everyone this time around! Very excited to see what people's imagination cooks up.

I have never even heard of that one by King! I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation!

Looking forward to all the creativity as well. And that Stephen King story can be found in the collection called “Everything is Eventual.”

Of course! Thank you for contributing to Macabre Monday. I really enjoy your Novels and a Song. It's very unique! Unrelated, but a little while ago I was floating the idea of writing short horror stories that were inspired by a song. I think that music and stories go hand in hand.

Thank you so much! And I love that idea of a short story being inspired by a song I’d love to read something like that. The connection between songs and stories is so fascinating and I don’t think it’s talked about nearly enough!

Well, if it ever comes to be I shall let you know.

I couldn't agree more!
