About This Newsletter:

Men fear death as children fear to go into the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased with tales, so is the other.
~Sir Francis Bacon


No passion so effectively robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear.
~Edmund Burke


When you look into the abyss, the abyss also looks into you.
~Nietzsche

The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown.
-- H. P. Lovecraft.

Fear of monsters attracts monsters.
-- Unknown.

Take a Break!

The holiday season is winding down now. All the stress had built up and needs an outlet. Writing.Com has several fun options to aid you in becoming a stress-free writer.

Quizzes are a fun way to get you thinking and test what you have stored in your head. According to the site explanation,

Quizzes are created by members and come in two forms; graded and weighted. Graded quizzes are standard right and wrong questions. In weighted quizzes, there are no wrong answers and each question adds to your total score.

Polls are created for fun as well as an information gathering tool.

User Polls are created by members who are seeking your opinion, so speak your mind and cast your vote! Writing.Com members question each other on a wide variety of topics. Remember, you must be logged into your account to be able to vote.

And lastly, Madlibs are a wonderful way to grab a giggle!

Madlibs are a relaxing, witty diversion from the norm. Authors create a story or situation with missing words and the reader is asked to fill in the blanks. The results from madlibs can be surprising and hilarious, so be prepared!

As well as provide entertainment, these diversions are fun to create. Try your hand at one or all three.

Happy New Year!
Nikola

From Zayet : I have another one...What if your the new doctor and all these cruel events are going on and you're starting to undercover why their are so many deaths on the charts. But you've helped me alot. It is very much appreciated.


From esprit : Nikola, umm - horror in a hospital; guess I missed a great opportunity. lol That would actually be the last type of story I'd want to be in my mind, though. Imagination runs wild in those places as it is. Great ideas can be born there.
