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.

Redemption's Song and other short stories

5 parts Complete

My second collection of short stories, but longer than the works in my Read my Shorts collection. This volume consists of anything more than 1000 words and includes new works, re-writes of a few older pieces and anything else I found on my computer that I'd forgotten to post before. It will contain steampunk, historical fiction, urban fantasy, science fiction, fantasy, slipstream, sci-fantasy, horror, paranormal, general oddity and anything else that happens to fall out of my ears as ideas formulate into stories. Enjoy. Comments and constructive feedback always welcomed.
