Empire 2
In Empire, the Grim Reaper walked a world that had been besieged by the undead for more than 100 years. He left his post as Death in order to hunt and kill zombies full-time, and the sequel picks up with him doing just that.
As winter approaches, Death, now known as Adam, crosses the American badlands in search of the girl he once… Continue

The Anatomy and Creation of a Story Pt. 2
This is an ongoing discussion of the process I use to write short stories…not that there is a set process, as it’s different each time. I started this in “Part One” back on my personal blog, and wanted to continue here to mix up the audience as much as possible.
In part one, I discussed the [...]

“This soap box is not big enough for the both of us.”
I asked readers for topics they would like to see me address in this blog, and I got a slew of great responses, something that will keep me in columns for a few months to come.
Here’s the question that got top billing for [...]
Providence, 1986
Providence, 1986 Wayne Allen Sallee 28 November 2009
I have a road trip, of sorts, ahead of me in a few hours. A zig-zag across the transit system of Chicago. I’m heading up north, but first I have to take the 55th Street bus to an artist friend’s place and drop off a few autographed books. There is [...]
The Ritual of Fine-Tuning My Writing
Most writers I know have rituals. These run the gamut from adjusting their desks a certain way to writing by candlelight to setting a glass of perfectly innocent booze on fire before each writing project as a sacrifice to the Writing Ancestors. They may sound silly, or wasteful (perfectly good booze, after all) or unintuitive, [...]
Thanksgiving
Friends and relatives around he world sing the same song: “We don’t have Thanksgiving here.” Here is New Zealand, South Africa, England, Israel…and on and on. This year, because we are down to three of us—my guardian angel/chef and one friend who lives alone—I stopped to think about what that means.
“We don’t have [...]

Thanks for adding me. Nice to meet you.

"The Picture in the House" is a gruesome little chiller that isn't as obtuse as some of his other work. Reminds me of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, myself!
If you're wanting to dive into the Mythos stuff, I'd recommend "Pickman's Model" and the good ol' "Call of Cthulhu" (both of which can be found at that DagonBytes site, along with the rest of his fiction).
My favorite Lovecraft story is "The Dreams in the Witch-House". If you're into sci-fi he wrote a few pretty good ones in that field, including "In the Walls of Eryx".

See you're a Lovecraft fan. Been trying to dive into his work (I'm a Poe boy) but I can't seem to find the handle. Now I know I'm a horrible reader to begin with but any suggestions on a couple of his stories that might grab me?
