Other contests that may interest you
Should you feel yourselves in need of a little dark horror fiction, or simply would like to stimulate your mood to write a little dark stuff yourself for this, or any other competition, then you may be interested in reading a little book that myself and the very talented ReflectingEye are currently putting together. It's dark, twisted and promises to be a very disturbing read, ENJOY!!!
Many thanks to the following for their generous GP donations to this years contest:
