A breakdown of my new Short Story / MY Slush Pile / Writing Blog / Horror Blog

What is going on in the world of fiction? I’ve done it again, I started another story, and hopefully this time I follow through, and finish it. I have a large slush pile of writing, half finished, some finished and never edited or looked at again, and on a day like yesterday, a good day, I write seven hundred fifty words of a brand new tale, will it end up in that formidable slush? I’m not sure where my head is most times, but I’m getting closer to some light at the end of the muddied tunnel.

I’m going to explain my story, Vasectomus, for those of you curious as to a synopsis about it. It’s a tale of a very angry man. His name is Sabre. He does have a sharp edge, so he thinks. He’s the focal point of the entire narrative, and most, from the beginning of the story, will probably hate him. In fact, when I discovered the person who oddly resembled Sabre, I didn’t like him much. This character is a loose faction of what I believed the real life person may have been in his personal day to day with his own spouse. On the polar opposite end, Sabre’s wife also has a story of her own. Her story is written in a style of a “Stencil Ceremony”, those of you who read my collection of short stories, Blood, Dreams & Tears, will know exactly what a Stencil Ceremony is, if you’ve taken the time to read the shorts. If not, it’s not too late to pick up a copy for yourself or even for a loved one, and read it. Most of the stories in the collection, albeit on a slight amateurish side, will probably please and disturb you at the same time.

So there you have it, a short, I mean short synopsis of Vasectomus, written by Jim Falcon. The story can be vulgar, so if you have a weak stomach, try to read it, when your stomach takes a flip or flop, put it down and read the rest later. Thanks, for any reading you can muster, it pleases me to see my artwork being unfolded, turned, and indulged in. As always you can get first access to the collection, The Gates of Chaos, right here, when it becomes available on Amazon and across the book networks. Thanks so much for stopping by, and for reading!
