The Ink In-Between: An Anthology (Dark Edition) by MPRCunha
13 parts Ongoing Mature
A collection of short stories of various genres, that either have an horror element to them, or lean more towards the dark and macabre side of fiction. Whenever realistic or supernatural, each story will contain some degree of upsetting, sensitive or mature material, so please be mindful of any content warnings (which will be specified at the beginning of each chapter). A lot of these will be written for prompts or contests, so feel free to check these out for inspiration as well. Here is a (mostly) spoiler-free description of each of the shorts: • HUNTED Genre: Dark Fantasy/Horror Summary: In the span of a single, fatal mistake, a hunter becomes the hunted. • EIGHT HORNS Genre: Supernatural Summary: A woman finds herself living in a house full of ghosts. • COUNT TO TEN Genre: Psychological Horror Summary: A young girl contemplates the things that lurk in the shadows of her life. • e n d l e s s Genre: Dark Fantasy Summary: Hel is said to be a gracious host. But can the ruler of the underworld grant Signe peace, at last? • THE DOLL MAKER Genre: Supernatural/ Psychological Thriller Summary: Detective Ngoyi confronts the prime suspect in her latest case. But which one of them is truly in control? • BROKEN TOYS Genre: Dark Fantasy Summary: Idir, the royal inventor, receives a (not so) unexpected late night visitor. • DON'T LOOK AWAY Genre: Horror/Supernatural Summary: Rana finds herself in an empty train station, but not as alone as she first thought. • FLIGHT ENVY Genre: Psychological Horror/Dark Fantasy Summary: Lady Ava receives a rare gift on her wedding anniversary. • MY MORNING STAR Genre: Dark Fantasy/Religious Mythology Summary: An angel falls. Another follows. • HERE AT THE END Genre: Dark Fantasy Summary: A final letter, written before an execution. • PURGATORY OF THE SENSES Genre: Psychological Horror Summary: A young boy tries and fails to ground himself.

This is a bunch of short stories I had to get out of my system. Each part is a complete story, so you don't have to worry about being left hanging! 1. Heist. I was was blinded by a sudden wave of story, character, and plot (which usually don't coincide with each other) while innocently on the way home from music practice. The result? A really cool story about a villain who doesn't stay bad and a heroine who isn't always good. 2. Antivirus. This is a story I wrote in high school, so bear with me... it took about three days in the writing, before I had much experience. Feel free to skip to the next story if you'd rather! 3. The Piano. For the romantic sentimental who like to wallow in what might have been. 4. The Night of January 7, 2018. Have you ever had one of those dreams that seemed incredibly real? Scarily deep and intense? 5. In The Archive of Biatre. This story is just a cute excerpt from my character's childhood. Note: only one character survives to the actual book. 6. Virtual Life. I have imagined what it would be like to live in a world that consisted of white walls, solar powered energy, and nearly complete dependence on machinery. 7. Almost an Override. This story is the result of a writing prompt on blog.reedsy.com which is an awesome website! I combined the prompt with my experience in customer service, and came out with something akin to comedy :) 8. A Perfectly Normal Thought Process. Another writing prompt from blog.reedsy.com about the "perfectly normal" state of my mind. 9. The Appointed Time. This was a New Year's prompt from blog.reedsy.com. It took me two days to finish, and all the characters are actually friends from church! 10. Leaving Footprints. Reaching the max character limit... blog.reedsy.com! 11. Sweet Little Things. Romance / horror genre blend. Prompt from blog.reedsy.com. 12. Created To Be. Need I say more? blog.reedsy.com And more!
