Racing Through OctoBOO with Team Halloween

A bunch of stuff I missed in the previous post

If anyone doesn’t wish to be tagged here, please let me know. The tagging is meant to help writers be seen, not annoy them.

So much great stuff being posted right now that I’m doing extra posts this month.

And watch for Crazy/Cozy Christmas beginning November 1st. And no, I’m not skipping Thanksgiving, so those stories are very welcome, too.

Please don’t miss my own humble eerie efforts at the bottom of this post.

And you Macabre Monday folks, due to the switch to you submitting your stuff via Chat, I no longer see them. If you want to be part of Team Halloween, please send me a DM or comment below. Thanks!
