De Profundis

Jane Dougherty Writes

Follow the candleflame light in the window
Take up your place at the table’s head
The night is dark and the wind is rising
Come in from the cold and we’ll sup with the dead.

My Paranormal Writing

I’ve been off in my fictional world lately. Into my paranormal settings, characters, and scenes. It happens and it feels great to be writing. I was thinking to rename my book title, Megan’s Guests, to Savage Sons, since the book is more about their revenge for their father than it is about Megan. However, I did a book search on Amazon and there is already a book with that title. GRRR. Maybe, The Return of Wilbur Savage, or Savage Descendants, or Savage Offspring. Do you like any of them? Any suggestions?

I wrote this one paragraph and I’d like some feedback on it, if someone’s willing to take a look. The character here is Joanne. She was rescued by her husband when one of the Savage sons attacked. Problem? Yes. Her husband took her to a place on the other side, through a mirror portal, where he’s been hiding from the Savage brothers. It’s an odd place to hide, smack in the center of a tree root. Mind you it is huge on the other side. Her husband, Rob, gets rescued and Joanne is left all alone. So here’s a scene of her in the tunnel (tree root) trying to find her way out.  

The endless tunnel walls seeped a thick liquid and smelled of tree sap mixed with something Joanne could only describe as sinister. She inched her way toward an opening with the palm of her hands against the wall. Her fingers felt glued together, but she pushed forward. A cry escaped her tightened lips and echoed through the tunnel until it sounded far, far away. She stared down the opening as if she could see the sound of her own cries. And then there was silence. As far as her eyes could see, a wicked laughter began. It came closer, and closer. Sap poured down the walls as it approached. The tunnel shook. Her eyes widened. It reached her and knocked her to her knees. Saturated in sap and stench, she stood, hands pressed against the wall. Her body shook. She turned in the other direction. The sap stretched and snapped between her hands and the wall, she moaned and whimpered. The sounds echoed. As far as her eyes could see, wicked laughter came closer and closer. She squeezed her eyes shut.

I ended the chapter there, with hopes of leaving a reader in suspense. Anyone care to critique? Can it be improved? Thanks!

Food for Thought-A Shakespearean Ghost Scene V

Short Story Title not Chosen,yet

Melonie's Poetic Life

The old lady sat fidgeting in the seat at her old rickety kitchen table!! For some reason her nerves were more shot than usual and she couldn’t pinpoint why exactly. She kept clutching at her withered hands in anticipation as she wrestled with her anxious mind.
She woke this morning so abruptly that her tired legs were shaking uncontrollably when she tried to ease herself out of bed. Looking back at her sheets before she attempted the agony of trying to coax a weary and beat body out bed, she notices that they are soaked from sweat.

Her body was not at all cooperative this morning and her mind began to race the minute her eyes focused on the light from her window! Every bone in her body creaked as she fumbled to get in a position that would allow her to get up successful and her joints felt like…

Ghost Tale III

Chris Ekong's Little World

After the many hours in cinema
Being left alone by my friends
The time speaking some minutes to midnight
I now have to walk home all alone
With all the vampire movies i watched
All images of the movies reflecting
Reflecting as lonely I trek home
Worsening situation for me
As I remember the ghostly track
It seems all the vampires I watched
Are all chatting in the track
Thinking they won’t let me go
Without doing what they are known for
“Blinding people who sees them”

Such a lonely ghostly thought I had
A thought that slowed my motion
Making the road three times longer
And ninety nine times scary

Chris Ekong
