I have a short horror/dark fantasy story (about 4,700 words) that nobody's read but me. I'd like to do a swap or two, if anyone's interested, before I embarrass myself in front of the ezine community at large.
I read horror, fantasy, and some sci-fi. NO YA or MG, please
Or you can just read it comment if you have nothing to trade, I'm not picky.
It's called "Longboat." Here is the opening, so you can get a bit of a feel for my writing:
[FONT="]Two glittering specks hover over the bow of my longboat, like moonlight reflecting in dark glass. I tell myself they are dim stars, or lamplight from the sinking brigantine some fifty yards ahead. I can almost believe it. Until they blink.[/FONT]
Those flecks are not stars. They are not candlelight reflected on the water. They are the wet and watchful eyes of whatever monster brought us to this lightless world.
I am the only one left alive.
Any takers?
