My latest installment for the Night Portals, takes place in an apocalyptic hellscape. Oh, did I mention that its Christmas?

We watch a lady named Brant try to navigate through a cold dark world where she is almost the only one left. Her husband and kids are dead and she is close to ending her life. Just when she is about to do it she comes upon a small cabin in a bombed out woods.

Merry Christmas from the End is the fourth book in season two of The Night Portals series.

The eleventh book of The Night Portals Series is live.

Ruby is a social worker who stands at 6 foot 5 and speaks with the most pleasant soft voice you have ever heard. Everyone is mesmerized by her, except Victor, her old friend. He isn’t buying it.

I’m proud of this installment to the Night Portals series because it is the longest short story yet. It comes in at a whopping 9000 words and is perfectly timed for this spooky month. I hope you enjoy it, my friend.

I remember someone saying once, an author I think, that you always go back to a certain place in your writing. A moment in time or a building in my case. That building is my grandparent’s house.

A house I remember vividly over any other. Mainly because it was a haunted house.

You don’t believe me? It had all the requirements.:
