July Update
READ PACT FOR FREE IN AUGUST - DETAIL IN MY BLOG
WELCOME TO MY BLOG
I am now well into my second year as a horror writer and will use this month's blog to update what I have been working on and how things are going with my stories in general.
BEST SELLER
My latest story, RED, was my best seller in July. Although I am still determining what most readers think of this story, I hope to gain more feedback on RED before the end of the summer. I expect this story to be met with mixed reviews. It has had a few strong ratings, but some didn’t get on with it for whatever reason. And this is fine with me, as I don’t expect every reader to enjoy my work. Thank you to everyone for giving this story a chance.
FREE STORY
My second psychological horror story PACT is now available on Kindle Unlimited (KU). If you do not have KU, this story will be FREE for five days from Friday, 4th August, to celebrate its first anniversary in print. Please check it out, and don’t forget to leave a review.
CURRENT WIPs
I am still fighting through the final edits for SINS OF THE WRONGED and CHOSEN, which I plan to release for Halloween.
SINS OF THE WRONGED
Maria is helplessly in love with Dominic, who appears quite detached from her attempts to resolve their issues. Dominic has been consistently cheating on Maria since the start of their short relationship, but she cannot see past how perfect things used to seem.
In an attempt to give things one last chance, they head off to the place where they had first declared their love for each other. Instead of rekindling their disconnected emotions, what transpires is a dark descent into despair and mayhem…
SINS OF THE WRONGED is a nasty, twisted and unsettling horror story… you have been warned!
CHOSEN
CHOSEN is a story I initially wrote to mess about with descriptive prose and fine-tune a few other writing skills. After re-reading it a few months back, I decided to go ahead and prepare it for release, and I am incredibly pleased with the final product.
CHOSEN centres around a school trip I went on to the country in the summer many years ago. It combines mystery, adventure and horror and will likely appeal to those seeking a more subtle and easily digestible story. Due to Chosen not being my usual kind of horror, I was going to release it under a pseudonym, but instead, I have decided to drop it subtly and without any promotion.
IN CLOSING
If you made it this far, thank you for your support, and I would like to offer you the opportunity to read CHOSEN or SINS OF THE WRONGED before the expected publication date in October 2023. I plan to send ten advance copies of both stories to gain some early feedback and a few reviews. If you are interested in this, please send me a message from the CONTACT page.
Yours in horror,
Daniel Lorn
