Free Book download - Update

UPDATE * Thanks everyone for downloading a free copy of 'Devil Inside.' The campaign is now over and many free books were downloaded. As an independent author it is nice to be able to give away something to encourage readers to take a chance on a newbie writer such as myself. I hope that those of you who did take a chance on my work and enjoyed it, will sample some of my other titles available on Amazon and/or leave a fair review.


Reviews go a long way to help authors without the large bank accounts of the big publishing houses, so it is something small that you, the reader, can do to support and encourage writers like myself. Despite not making any money (so far) I love being able to share my stories with the world and feel very privileged to do so. Please leave a comment if you follow this site/blog - I would love to hear from any readers out there (if any) and any suggestions for this website and for the type of stories you'd like to read from me in the future.

Anyway, thanks again and until next time, take care.


William

From a customer review:

"Devil Inside is the tale of a young, underachieving boy who suffers abuse at the hands of his drunken father and a lack of attention from his mother, who is also a heavy drinker. Taunts from his teacher compound the issue, and on top of all this, he is having nightmares about a terrible, dark creature as black as night, with red piercing eyes. Is this creature only a dream, or is it a demonic protector sent to watch over the boy and punish those who do him harm? A wonderful tale, told with William Cook's usual attention to gory detail. There are 4 bonus poems and an excerpt from his novel, "Blood Related" too, so I urge any potential reader to take a look into the dark world of William Cook's imagination. You won't be disappointed in what you read!"

The Fangoria Horror Business Model

Along with Stephen King and Hammer Horror, Fangoria magazine was one of the earliest influences on my obsession with Horror in all its various forms. I scored a binder filled with the first 12 issues when I was 14 and became a devout subscriber. 40+ years later, Fangoria’s transformation from a struggling print magazine into a multimedia powerhouse is a story of resilience, innovation, and strategic growth. Their journey provides valuable insights for anyone in the horror business – whether you’re running a small indie publishing house, starting a podcast, or looking to scale your horror-themed merchandise line. Let’s break down Fangoria’s rise to success, the strategies that set it apart, and why it’s the ultimate business model for horrorpreneurs at any level. Fangoria’s launch Fangoria began as a print magazine focused on sci-fi and fantasy under the name Fantastica . This title was short-lived due to its similarity to  Fantastic Films  magazine, and it was forced to cea...

THE (EXTREMELY) SHORT GUIDE TO WRITING HORROR BY TIM WAGGONER

Tim Waggoner graciously let me reblog this fascinating little exploration of his on writing horror. THE (EXTREMELY) SHORT GUIDE TO WRITING HORROR  BY TIM WAGGONER Horror comes from a fear of the unknown. Keep a sense of mystery going in your story. What’s happening? Why is it happening? What’s going to happen next? How much worse is it going to get? Horror comes from a violation of what your characters consider to be normal reality. This violation shakes them to their very core because it raises the possibility that everything they thought they knew is wrong and that anything could happen. The Universe isn’t orderly or benign. It’s chaotic and malicious. Dread is the mounting anticipation of a threat drawing ever closer. Terror is a deep emotional and intellectual reaction to a threat, a profound realization that reality isn’t what we thought it was. Horror is an immediate reaction to a threat – disbelief, denial, turning away. Shock is a surprise, an ad...

The moon speaks to me of you (a love poem)

Apologies for the lack of recent posts. I have been writing and have also been quite active on Medium.com lately. For those of you who are on Medium, please feel free to connect with me there via the link below. Medium has proved to be quite an interactive forum in which to share my work and has motivated me to keep writing and sharing my poems and stories.

What is it that makes this soft sadness so indeterminable so impenetrable sunk so deep into this endless night? The broken light that comes & goes between the darkness either side of dawn speaking of your memory ushering in each day one, as if a step away from you the next, a step toward...
