Issue 2 of volume 2 of The New Bedlam Project came out today, and it includes a story from me, Waking Up a Living Legend. This is the third story about my wicked and completely mad serial killer, but the first time that readers will learn her name.
If you read the story, please leave a comment. I’d love to know what you think.
And do be sure to check out the other stories. In particular, read The Horologist by K.V. Taylor. It pulled me in and never let go until the final line. Definitely worth your time, pun intended.
... I write dark fiction in a variety of genres. My blog contains my rants and rambles, and some short fiction that can only be found here.
I can be pretty fucking offensive, so viewer discretion is advised.
I really enjoyed the Horologist too. Something different, and her vision sequences were well written. Thanks for bringing more of the surreal creepiness with “Waking Up a Living Legend.” The scene near the end reminded me of Cronenberg and Barker’s brand of body horror.
Yes, the vision sequences had me dreading something terrible, but even the way the young lady died was very tragic and had a great impact. I liked my story, but I felt The Horologist was in a tie with Sleep Like the Dead for the best story of the issue.
