Launching Team Halloween!
Let the eerie, creepy, spine-tingling fun begin…
Macabre Monday was started by Jeff Kinnard during the Halloween season and has continued on through the year, with John Coon , Jon T , Shaina Read , and The Chronicler taking up the reins. They got me started writing the stories in my two published books. And the ideas keep coming.
As we get closer to another such season, I’m taking things a step further with Team Halloween and encouraging you all to beef up your postings of creepy creatures, hauntings, and things going “bump!” not just in the night, but all day long. And you can post them any day of the week, not just Mondays.
Post your best Halloweenish poems, fiction, essays, and whatever else you dredge up from the dark dungeon of your mind! And please feel free to post links to your published works elsewhere. We don’t all post our stuff here. Just be sure to tag me and indicate that your items are part of Team Halloween. Bwahaha!
Looks like The Brothers Krynn are getting a head start with this item:
